摘    要:The hepatitis C Virus (HCV) presents a high degree of genetic variability which is explained by the combination of a lack of proof reading by the RNA dependant RNA polymerase and a high level of viral replication. The re- sulting genetic polymorphism defines a classification in clades, genotypes, subtypes, isolates and quasispecies. This diversity is known to reflect the range of responses to Interferon therapy. The genotype is one of the pre- dictive parameters currently used to define the antiviral treatment strategy and the chance of therapeutic suc- cess. Studies have also reported the potential impact of the viral genetic polymorphism in the outcome of antivi- ral therapy in patients infected by the same HCV geno- type. Both structural and non structural genomic regions of HCV have been suggested to be involved in the Inter- feron pathway and the resistance to antiviral therapy. In this review, we first detail the viral basis of HCV diversity. Then, the HCV genetic regions that may be implicated in resistance to therapy are described, with a focus on the structural region encoded by the E2 gene and the non- structural genes NS3, NS5A and NS5B. Both mechanisms of the Interferon resistance and of the new antiviral drugs are described in this review.
