Hepatitis C virus infection

Predicting treatment response and the molecular mechanism of interferon resistance

Buch

Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) infects 170 million people worldwide. Current standard treatment with pegylated interferon alpha (IFNa) and ribavirin cures only 50% patients. Therefore, developing a prognostic tool that can be used to predict whether a given patient will respond to therapy is of great importance clinically. This book describes a novel predicting method based on a subset of 18 hepatic gene expression that predicts who will respond to therapy with an accuracy of 96%. A new ubiquitin-like signaling pathway (ISG15/USP18) was revealed to be involved in interferon resistance. Furthermore, preactivation of interferon signaling pathway leadi… Mehr
