Specific determination of hepatitis B e antigen by antibodies targeting precore unique epitope facilitates clinical diagnosis and drug evaluation against hepatitis B virus infection

Emerging Microbes and Infections, 2021
Hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) is a widely used marker both for chronic hepatitis B (CHB) clinical management and HBV-related basic research. However, due to its high amino acid sequence homology to hepatitis B core antigen (HBcAg), most of available anti-

Radioimmunoassay of Hepatitis B e-antigen (HBeAg): identification of HBeAg not associated with Immunoglobulins

Journal of General Virology, 1979
A radioimmunoassay for hepatitis B e-antigen (HBeAg) is described. Polystyrene beads coated with IgG prepared from a human serum containing antibodies to HBeAg (anti-HBe) and anti-HBe IgG labelled with 125I-p-hydroxyphenylpropionic acid N-hydroxysuccinimide ester were used in the test.

Meta-omics characteristics of intestinal microbiota associated to HBeAg seroconversion induced by oral antiviral therapy

Scientific Reports, 2021
Tenofovir and entecavir are currently designated as the preferred oral antiviral drugs for chronic hepatitis B. However, only less than 40% of patients can achieve HBeAg seroconversion.

Cumulative incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma and hepatitis B surface antigen Seroclearance after Nucleos(t) ide analogue-induced hepatitis B e antigen Seroclearance

BMC Gastroenterology, 2020
Background Hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) seroclearance has been considered as the treatment endpoint in HBeAg-positive patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB). Although HBeAg seroclearance has been accomplished, some aspects are yet unclear.

PROPORTION OF HBsAg AND HBeAg POSITIVE IN MATERNAL PATIENTS AND THEIR HBsAg POSITIVES BABIES WITH IMMUNOPROPHYLAXIS OF HBV IMMUNIZATION IN Dr. SOETOMO GENERAL HOSPITAL, SURABAYA

Indonesian Journal of Tropical and Infectious Disease, 2017
Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) can be transmitted vertically from mother to her baby. Mothers with HBsAg and HBeAg positives have more risk of transmitting HBV to her baby rather than HBsAg positives only. The aim of this study is to determine the proportion of

Hepatitis B core-related antigen reflects viral replication and protein production in chronic hepatitis B patients

Chinese Medical Journal, 2021
. Background:. Hepatitis B core-related antigen (HBcrAg) is a promising disease-monitoring marker for chronic hepatitis B (CHB). We investigated correlations between HBcrAg with antiviral efficacy and virological and histological variables. Methods:. One
