From clinical practice a large number of hepatitis c patients have chronic anemia with blood film confirmation ,please what is the patho-genesis for this observation ,any molecular link.
I don't think is association would be related to HCV infection. It would be very relevant to discard another different associated and concomitant cause
In 5 to 10 percent of the aplastic anemia [AA], hepatitis C infection is common, which can be due to the involvement of the immune system and the response of T CD8+ lymphocytes to hematopoietic stem cells that result in apoptosis of these cells and, consequently, bone marrow failure.
