Figure 2

Response of tupaias to HCV1b infection. (A) ALT levels and viral loads in sera from tupaia #22 collected at 2-week intervals from 0 to 41 weeks postinfection (wpi). (B) Anti-HCV core and anti-nonstructural protein NS3 antibody titres in tupaia #22 at 2-week intervals from 0 to 41 wpi. (C) Anti-DHCR24 antibody titres and ROS levels in tupaia #22 at 2-week intervals from 0 to 41 wpi. The empty vector was used as the negative control. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001, and ****p < 0.0001 indicate significant differences in antibody titres or ROS levels, as appropriate, before infection and after infection at different weeks. Data are presented as means ± SDs (n = 2).
