Hepatitis C viruses, artwork
Hepatitis C viruses. Artwork of hepatitis C virus particles (virions). The virus consists of a core of RNA (ribonucleic acid) enclosed in a capsid, and surrounding by a glycoprotein envelope (purple). Inserted in the envelope are surface proteins (brown and purple spheres), which help the virus attach to its host cell. The hepatitis C virus infects liver cells causing an inflammatory disease that can lead to degeneration and scarring (cirrhosis). It is transmitted by blood-to-blood contact. There is no vaccine for hepatitis C

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork showcases the intricate structure of Hepatitis C viruses, shedding light on the biology and pathology behind this infectious disease. The image reveals a cluster of virions, each composed of an RNA core enclosed within a protective capsid. Surrounding these viral particles is a glycoprotein envelope in striking shades of purple. Highlighted within the envelope are surface proteins represented by brown and purple spheres. These crucial components play a vital role in enabling the virus to attach itself to host cells, facilitating its entry into liver cells specifically. Once inside, the hepatitis C virus instigates an inflammatory response that can lead to degeneration and scarring known as cirrhosis. The transmission of this insidious pathogen occurs through blood-to-blood contact, making it imperative for effective preventive measures to be taken. Unfortunately, despite extensive research efforts, no vaccine has been developed yet to combat hepatitis C. Through this visually stunning illustration created by Science Photo Library's talented artists, viewers gain insight into the complex world of virology and microbiology. This print serves as a reminder that understanding such pathogens at both microscopic and molecular levels is essential for developing targeted treatments and prevention strategies against diseases like hepatitis C.
