Humoral immune responses in acute resolving (A) and chronic (B) HCV infection. A) Rapid development of HCV-specific nAb may contribute to spontaneous resolution of infection. Ab to HCV structural and non-structural proteins can be detected by enzyme-linked immunoassay (EIA). Ab levels may decline after infection is cleared. B) Slower development of nAb responses may predispose to chronic infection. Ab to structural and non-structural proteins is detectable by EIA.
