Are baseline serum hepatitis C virus ( HCV ) RNA level and response at week 4 the best predictors of relapse after treatment with pegylated interferon plus ribavirin in HIV/HCV-coinfected patients?
High baseline serum HCV RNA level and lack of undetectable viremia at week 4 are the most significant predictors of relapse in HCV/HIV-coinfected patients treated with peg-IFN plus weight-based RBV.
TLR2 deletion induced activation of the RAS in UUO kidneys. Moreover, inhibition of both RAS and TLR2 had an additive ameliorative effect on UUO injury of the kidney.
