A novel in vitro system for simultaneous infections with hepatitis B, C, D and E viruses by Roxanne Fouillé, Eloi R. Verrier, Amse De Meyer, Lieven Verhoye, Maud Michelet, Romain Barnault, Caroline Pons, Olivier Diaz, Michel Rivoire, Guillaume Passot, Eike Steinmann, Heiner Wedemeyer, Anna Salvetti, Nicole Pavio, Virginie Doceul, Raphaël Darteil, Philip Meuleman, David Durantel, Julie Lucifora

“…Since no in vitro model allowing multi-infections with the four viruses is reported, limited data are available on their interplay as well as on the potential cross-reactivity of antivirals in multi-infection cases. …”
