Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent decades, numerous studies focused on the virology, epidemiology, immunology, genetics, molecular biology, natural history, pathogenesis, current drug treatment, and new drug development in hepatitis research have strengthened our knowledge in this field. Such research provides the chance to identify and develop vaccines and treatments or cure viral hepatitis infections. Therefore, we welcome contributions to this Special Issue of Viruses, “State-of-the-Art Hepatitis Research in 2022”. The aim is to provide comprehensive information on all aspects of hepatitis research. Contributions to this Special Issue will advance our knowledge of hepatitis induced by virus infections and provide a better understanding of this serious human pathogen. This Special Issue will bring together original research papers and review manuscripts on hepatitis research with a focus on acute/chronic viral replication, pathogenesis, immune responses, vaccine development, hepatic disease, and antiviral treatments in viral hepatitis research.
