Hepatitis C virus-specific T lymphocyte responses
Abstract
Hepatitis C virus establishes a persistent infection in humans and chimpanzees despite virus-specific cell-mediated immune responses. Available data suggest that these responses do provide some control of ongoing hepatitis C virus replication and are an important factor contributing to chronic hepatitis.
