Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection remains a major health problem worldwide. Sufficient maintenance of the HBV covalently closed circular DNA (cccDNA), which serves as a template for HBV transcription, is responsible for the failure of antiviral therapies.

Effect of APE1 treatment on detection of cccDNA levels in 35 paired CT and CNCT samples.
The 35 paired HCC samples with detectable cccDNA values (left column, N = 35) were divided into two group according to ratio of cccDNA in the paired CT and CNCT samples (CT/CNCT) 1 (right column, N = 10).

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is a major global health issue, with an estimated 254 million people living with chronic HBV infection worldwide as of 2022. Chronic HBV infection is the leading cause of cirrhosis and liver cancer. Current treatment with nucleos(t)ide analogs is effective in the suppression of viral activity but generally requires lifelong ...

CEP290 is Associated With Chromatin Accessibility of Hepatitis B virus cccDNA
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) covalently closed circular DNA (cccDNA) serves as a stable nuclear template for viral transcription, yet the mechanisms controlling its chromatin accessibility remain poorly understood. Here, we performed single-cell assay for transposase-accessible chromatin sequencing (ATAC-seq) in HBV-infected human hepatocytes to profile ...

Chronic Hepatitis B Genotype C Mouse Model with Persistent Covalently Closed Circular DNA
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) can cause chronic infections, significantly increasing the risk of death from cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). A key player in chronic HBV infection is covalently closed circular DNA (cccDNA), a stable episomal form ...

The cornerstone of functional cure for chronic hepatitis B (CHB) is hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) loss from blood. HBsAg is encoded by covalently closed circular DNA (cccDNA) and HBV DNA integrated into the host genome (iDNA). Nucleos(t)ide analogs

DNA Sensor ABCF1 Phase Separates With cccDNA to Inhibit Hepatitis B Virus Replication
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) covalently closed circular DNA (cccDNA) contributes to viral persistence and recurrence, however, how the host innate immune system responds to cccDNA is still less known.
