Worldwide 71 million people are chronically infected with HCV and each year approximately 400 000 people die from HCV associated liver diseases. The most important risk factor in western industrialised countries to acquire HCV infection is intravenous drug use. For this reason, we utilised a cohort of people who inject drugs (PWID) to comparatively analyse PWID developing chronic infection (HCV RNA positive), spontaneously resolving HCV infection (HCV RNA negative) and PWID remaining anti HCV seronegative (anti HCV negative), to provide novel insights into the contribution of innate and adaptive immune mechanisms to HCV infection outcome. The role of Natural Killer T (NKT) cells, which share characteristics of innate and adaptive immune ce...
