Hepatitis C virus (HCV) replicates in sweat glands and is released into the sweat of those with chronic HCV infection, Spanish researchers report in the December issue of the Journal of Medical Virology.
Dr. Vicente Carreno of the Fundacion para el Estudio de las Hepatitis Virales, Madrid, and colleagues note that it is known that HCV replicates in the salivary glands of such patients, suggesting that it “may replicate in other exocrine glands.”
