Next, we analyzed and compared the intra- and extracellular RNA amounts as well as extracellular levels of core protein – a measure for newly secreted virus particles – 72 h after inoculation of Huh-7.5 and MLT-5H cells and 96 h after infection of PMH hOChep IFNAR-/- PMH with equal numbers of infectious HCV particles (Fig. S1). The gene discussed is IFNAR1; the disease is infection.
