Frequent Compartmentalization of Hepatitis C Virus with Leukocyte‐Related Amino Acids in the Setting of Liver Transplantation

Abstract

HCV compartmentalization between plasma and PBMCs and the emergence of leukotropic variants could be potentiated by immunosuppression in liver transplant recipients. The identification of defined leukotropic variants may contribute to the understanding of virus-host interactions after transplantation.
