Exon 1 (transcript variant 3) and exon 10 were amplified from selected samples with PCR parameters as described above. After a control electrophoresis on 2% agarose gels, the PCR products were directly subjected to processing with Surveyor nuclease [13] (Transgenomic, Omaha, USA) according to[r]

acute HCV infection persists and 4% to 20% of patients with chronic hepatitis C will develop liver cirrhosis within 20 years. In patients with liver cirrhosis, the risk to develop HCC is 1-5% per year. Current standard therapy is the combination of pegylated interferon-α (PEG-IFN-α) and ribavirin. D[r]
