HCV is considered as a metabolic disease
Over 170 million people world wide is infected with HCV, are at high risk for hepC, liver cirrhosis, liver cancer or type II diabetes.
Induces insulin resistance (IR); IR accelerates the progression of liver disease and makes treatment difficult
Needs a successful vaccine and/or an well- tolerated and cost-effective treatment strategy.
Questions?
How does chronic HCV infection induce insulin resistance (IR)?
How does IR affect the outcome of IFN-based therapeutic response?
How to develop a well-tolerated and cost effective treatment strategy?

Fig.8. Strategy for inhibition of major target proteins (Akt, Gsk-3, mTOR, AMPK) and effect on the pathway
Summary and Discussion HCV infected cells show disruption in glucose
homeostasis (reduced glucose uptake and inactivation of GS by Ser641) and it is activated within 2 weeks
Insulin signaling pathway ( IRS-1-PI-3K-Akt-GSK-3) is dysregulated
Autophagy is linked with IR and inhibition of autophagy inhibits IRS-1, GSK-3 beta and GS ser 641 phosphorylation
Key proteins from all three major pathways interact Phosphorylation of GSK-3 beta, AMPK or mTOR are all
inhibited by IFN-alpha suggesting as potential therapeutic targets.
