Task: Answer Verification
Input (English): Question: Do magnitude of CD8 T-cell responses against hepatitis C virus and severity of hepatitis necessarily determine outcomes in acute hepatitis C virus infection?
Answer: HCV-specific CD8(+) T-cell responses were detectable in all 6 patients with acute HCV infection, and 6 novel HCV-specific CTL epitopes were identified. Acute HCV infection can resolve with detectable HCV-specific CD8(+) T-cell responses, but without development of antibody against HCV.
Output (English): no
