Scientists replicate hepatitis C virus in laboratory
New in vitro model system will allow study of therapeutics and virus
life cycle
For the first time, scientists have replicated hepatitis C virus (HCV)
in the laboratory. The ability to replicate HCV in cell culture will
allow researchers to better study the life cycle and biology of this
virus and to test potential antiviral compounds, which may lead to new
therapies for the liver disease that results from infection with HCV.
Scientists at the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and
Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), one of the National Institutes of Health (NIH),
conducted the study, which appears in the Feb. 15, 2005 issue of
