Abstract
Hepatitis B and C viruses belong to two distinct virus families, the Hepadnaviridae and the Flaviviridae, respectively, and have different virological characteristics. Better knowledge of their lifecycles and variability offers the opportunity to develop novel therapeutic approaches and classes of drugs. The issue of cccDNA clearance, however, remains in hepatitis B treatment, whereas HCV infection is curable.Entities:
