Hepatitis C associated cardiomyopathy: potential pathogenic mechanisms and clinical implications.

Medical science monitor : international medical journal of experimental and clinical research - 1 May 2008

Sanchez Mayra J, Bergasa Nora V

Abstract excerpt

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) has tropism for other tissues besides the liver (e.g. lymphocytic tissues). It has been isolated from the myocardium of patients with myocarditis and cardiomyopathy hence, its inclusion among the cardiotropic viruses; however, the mechanisms by which this virus damages the myocardium have not been elucidated. It seems that the development of HCV-associated cardiomyopathy may take place in...
