Core Tip |
Brief overviews on epidemiology of hepatitis C virus (HCV), virus morphology and life cycle are presented. A special attention was focused on in vitro and in vivo models that are currently used to study the HCV infection. In fact, extensive use of existing models and creating a new ones is a way to reveal important events in the virus interaction with target cells. In particular, uncover of these interactions might shed light on the mechanism behind virus induced pathogenesis and chronicity, and by that contribute to the development of new drugs and prophylactic vaccines. Recently, the new multiple therapies with a pan-genotypic activity appeared on the market. It is worth mentioning, that there is no cross-resistance among the various classes of direct antiviral agents. The new agents (third generation) and even new targets (entry inhibitors, release inhibitors) being studied, should allow to cure all patients in the mid-term, hoping that they will have equal access to therapy. |
