Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Age: between 15 and 40 years old.
* Good physical condition as established by clinical examination and history taking at the time of entry.
* Female participants who are at risk to become pregnant will be on a contraceptive programme if necessary during the study period.
* Written informed consent obtained from the subjects aged between 18 and 40 and from the parents/tutor when the subjects are aged between 15 and 17 years.

* Elevated serum liver enzymes.
* History of significant and persisting hematologic, hepatic, renal, cardiac or respiratory disease.
* Any acute disease at the moment of entry.
* Chronic alcohol consumption.
* Hepatomegaly, right upper quadrant abdominal pain or tenderness.
* Any chronic drug treatment, including any treatment with immunosuppressive drugs, which in the investigator's opinion, precludes inclusion into the study.
