Quantitation of Hepatitis G and C Viruses in the Liver:
Evidence That Hepatitis G Virus Is Not Hepatotropic

Figure 1

Fig. 1. Quantitation of HCV and HGV viral RNA in liver and serum in patients with HGV/HCV coinfection (study group). HCV RNA levels were significantly higher in liver than serum (P < .01; Wilcoxon matched pairs test). HGV RNA levels were significantly lower in liver than serum (P = .03; Wilcoxon matched pairs test). Hepatic HCV RNA levels were significantly higher than those for HGV RNA (P < .01; Wilcoxon matched pairs test).
