Abstract excerpt
UNLABELLED: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection leads to persistence in the majority of cases despite triggering complex innate immune responses within the liver. Although hepatocytes are the preferred site for HCV replication, nonparenchymal cells (NPCs) can also contribute to antiviral immunity. Recent innovations involving single-genome amplification (SGA), direct amplicon sequencing, and phylogenetic inference...
