MORPHOLOGICAL ANALYSIS OF HEPATITIS B VIRUS WITH ESCAPE MUTATIONS IN S-gene G145R AND S143L
Background. In terms of serological properties and immunization, the wild type of HBsAg HBV and its G145R mutant behave as different antigens. This testifies to serious structural changes, which presumably could have a significant impact on the ...

Immune escape mutants with mutations in the hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) major hydrophilic region (MHR) often emerge in association with diagnostic failure or breakthrough of HBV infection in patients with anti-HBs antibodies. Some mutants harboring substitutions to Asn in HBsAg MHR may have an additional potential N-glycosylation site.

Introduction. The achievement of the goal of the World Health Organization to eliminate viral hepatitis B by 2030 seems to be problematic partly due to the presence of escape mutants of its etiological agent, hepatitis B virus (HBV) (iHepadnaviridae ...

Comparison of the Clinical Features of Hepatitis A between HBsAg-Positive and HBsAg-Negative Patients [PDF]
The notion that acute hepatitis A superimposed on chronic hepatitis B infection leads to a worse outcome than acute hepatitis A alone remains controversial. The aim of this study was to determine the influence of the presence of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) on the severity of acute hepatitis A.We retrospectively analyzed 449 patients ...

Chronic hepatitis B is caused by a persistent form of hepatitis B virus, covalently closed circular DNA (cccDNA). Stability of cccDNA is associated with intracellular localization of cccDNA and formation of minichromosome, regulated by epigenetic ...

Seroprevalence of Hepatitis B Virus in Pregnant Women at a Tertiary Care Hospital of Eastern India [PDF]
Introduction: Hepatitis B virus is a DNA virus causing hepatitis in humans. It is thought to be responsible for chronic liver diseases in 75% of cases. Besides other routes, vertical transmission from mother to child is an important one.
