Small RNA sequencing of plasma extracellular vesicles from HCV and HIV/HCV coinfected patients

ABSTRACT: A total of 52 patients were analyzed: 21 of them monoinfected with HCV and 31 coinfected with HIV (HCV/HIV). HCV patients were recruited from Hospital Italiano and Hospital José María Ramos Mejía from Buenos Aires, Argentina, and HCV/HIV patients from Hospital Universitario La Paz, Hospital Infanta Leonor, Hospital Universitario La Princesa, Hospital Puerta de Hierro, from Madrid, Spain. All samples were processed at the National Center for Microbiology (Madrid). Patients were naıve of treatment for HCV. CHC infection was defined by the presence of anti-HCV antibodies in serum and detectable HCV RNA in plasma samples in at least 2 separate occasions. All HIV+ patients had HIV antibodies, CD4+ T-cells counts ≥ 500 cel/mm3 for at least one year before sample collection, and undetectable HIV
