An HBV-Derived Peptide Poly6 as a Novel Candidate for Functional Cure Via IFN-I-Mediated Epigenetic Regulation of cccDNA. [PDF]

J Med Virol
ABSTRACT Covalently closed circular DNA (cccDNA) represents the central obstacle to achieving a functional cure for chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. Poly6, a peptide encoded within the HBV genome, was investigated for antiviral efficacy in hepatocyte‐derived cell lines, hydrodynamic injection models, and HBV transgenic mice.

High Intrahepatic cccDNA in Resolved HBV Infection: Insights From Living Donor Liver Transplantation With Anti-HBc-Positive Grafts. [PDF]

J Gastroenterol Hepatol
ABSTRACT Aim In hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg)‐negative recipients with antibody to hepatitis B core antigen (anti‐HBc)‐positive liver grafts, hepatitis B virus (HBV) can be reactivated under post‐transplant immunosuppression. We recently reported a median intrahepatic covalently closed circular DNA (cccDNA) level of 238 copies/μg in HBsAg ...

Chronic Hepatitis B Relapse Rates after Cessation of Tenofovir Alafenamide and Entecavir Therapy

Biomedicines, 2023
Chronic hepatitis B (CHB) relapse occurs after the cessation of nucleos(t)ide analogues (NUC) therapy due to the waning of viral suppression. Few studies have investigated the viral relapse rate and clinical relapse rate after tenofovir alafenamide (TAF)

An expert consensus for the management of chronic hepatitis B in Asian Americans. [PDF]

, 2018
BACKGROUND: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is common with major clinical consequences. In Asian Americans, the HBsAg carrier rate ranges from 2% to 16% which approximates the rates from their countries of origin.

Drug-related mutational patterns in hepatitis B virus (HBV) reverse transcriptase proteins from Iranian treatment-Naïve chronic HBV patients [PDF]

, 2013
Background: Immunomodulators and Nucleotide analogues have been used globally for the dealing of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. However, the development of drug resistance is a major limitation to their long-term effectiveness.

Treatment with the Immunomodulator AIC649 in Combination with Entecavir Produces Antiviral Efficacy in the Woodchuck Model of Chronic Hepatitis B

Viruses, 2021
As current interventions for chronic hepatitis B (CHB) rarely induce cure, more effective drugs are needed. Short-term treatment of woodchucks with the novel immunomodulator AIC649, a parapoxvirus-based stimulator of toll-like receptor 9 dependent and ...
