Exploring recent research in both the basic and clinical aspects of liver disease and viral hepatitis, this volume explores the molecular biology of the five known hepatitis viruses, interferon treatment of HCV-related liver disease, and the worldwide epidemiology and control of viral hepatitis.
A series of international symposia on viral hepatitis and liver disease has been held triannially. This volume reports the results of the eighth of these "Olympiads", which was held in Tokyo in May 1993. The major topics discussed were the molecular biology of the five known hepatitis viruses (HAV, HBV, HCV, HDV, and HEV), clinical implications of genetic variants of HBV and HCV, interferon treatment of HCV-related liver disease, and worldwide epidemiology and control of viral hepatitis. Expanding knowledge about the heterogeneity of the HCV genome has revealed a great variety of genotypes as well as their association with host pathogenesis and their varying responsiveness to interferon therapy. The first promising results of efforts to develop a hepatitis C vaccine are also presented.
