Viral sequence variation in chronic carriers of hepatitis C virus has a low impact on liver steatosis.

Viral sequence variation in chronic carriers of hepatitis C virus has a low impact on liver steatosis.

Most clinical studies suggest that the prevalence and severity of liver steatosis are higher in patients infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 3 than in patients infected with other genotypes. This may reflect the diversity and specific intrinsic properties of genotype 3 virus proteins. We...
