Hepatitis C virus has a genetically determined lymphotropism through co-receptor B7.2
Infection of B cells by hepatitis C virus (HCV) is poorly understood, but is thought to result in lymphoproliferative disorders. Here, Chenet al. identify CD86 as co-receptor for lymphotropic HCV and show that HCV infection inhibits memory B-cell function.
