Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is an enveloped, positive-sense single-stranded RNA virus of the Flaviviridae family. Hepatitis C (HepC) or Non-A-, Non-B-Hepatitis, causes infection of the liver that is spread through the blood or body fluids. Using molecular mimicry, this virus is able to evade immune attack. Chronic Hepatitis C virus infection is known to induce autoimmune reactions and can be associated with extrahepatic manifestations including diabetes and thyroid autoimmune disorders. Please refer to corresponding white paper for details on infiltration, autoimmune mechanisms and references.
