Median reduction of hepatitis C virus (HCV)-RNA levels (log copies/ml) after administering pegylated interferon α to chimeric mice having human hepatocytes containing various single nucleotide polymorphisms around the IL28B gene as favourable (rs8099917 TT) and unfavourable (rs8099917 TG) genotypes. Data are represented as mean+SD. Chimeric mice infected with a) serum A (n=7; favourable genotype, n=6; unfavourable genotype), (B) serum B (n=2, each genotype), and (C) serum C (n=2, each genotype). All serum samples were obtained from HCV-1b patients.
