Background/Aims: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is associated with the development of chronic liver disease and extra-hepatic manifestations, which include autoantibody production, immune-mediated diseases such as cryoglobulinaemia and B-cell lymphoproliferation. Recent identification of intra-hepatic clonal B cells capable of rheumatoid factor production, selective infection of B cells over T...
