A Universal Plug-and-Display Vaccine Carrier Based on HBsAg VLP to Maximize Effective Antibody Response

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2019
Development of effective malaria vaccines requires delivery platforms to enhance the immunogenicity and efficacy of the target antigens. This is particularly challenging for transmission-blocking malaria vaccines (TBVs), and specifically for those based ...

Evaluation of CLIA plus NAT for detecting HBsAg single-ELISA-reactive samples of blood donors

open access: yesZhongguo shuxue zazhi, 2022
Objective To study the detection performance of HBsAg single-ELISA-reactive samples of blood donors. Methods Two kinds of ELISA reagents from different manufacturers (named as reagents A and B) were used for HBsAg screening.

Clinical, epidemiological and virological features of acute hepatitis B in Italy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Purpose To evaluate the association of hepatitis B virus (HBV) genotypes, basal core promoter (BCP)/precore (PC) and S gene mutations with the clinical-epidemiological characteristics of acute hepatitis B (AHB) in Italy.

HBsAg Loss with Peg-interferon Alfa-2a in Hepatitis B Patients with Partial Response to Nucleos(t)ide Analog: New Switch Study

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Translational Hepatology, 2018
Background and Aims: Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) loss is seldom achieved with nucleos(t)ide analog (NA) therapy in chronic hepatitis B patients but may be enhanced by switching to finite pegylated-interferon (Peg-IFN) alfa-2a.

The prevalence of occult hepatitis B virus (hbv) infection in a large multi-ethnic haemodialysis cohort. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Haemodialysis patients are at increased risk of exposure to blood borne viruses. To reduce transmission in the UK, all haemodialysis patients are regularly screened, and if susceptible to Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection ...

Chronic HBV infection in pregnant immigrants: a multicenter study of the Italian Society of Infectious and Tropical Diseases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The aims of the study were to estimate the clinical impact of HBV infection in pregnant immigrants and their family members and to identify a useful approach to managing the healthcare of HBsAg-positive immigrants.

Epidemiological patterns of hepatitis B virus (HBV) in highly endemic areas [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
This paper uses meta-analysis of published data and a deterministic mathematical model of hepatitis B virus (HBV) transmission to describe the patterns of HBV infection in high endemicity areas.

HBsAg sT123N mutation induces stronger antibody responses to HBsAg and HBcAg and accelerates in vivo HBsAg clearance

open access: yesVirus Research, 2015
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.

Comparison of Anatomical and Non‐Anatomical Resection in Low Microvascular Invasion Risk Solitary Hepatocellular Carcinoma ≤ 5 cm

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
We evaluated whether anatomical resection (AR) provides an oncological benefit over non‐anatomical resection (NAR) in solitary hepatocellular carcinoma ≤ 5 cm without predicted microvascular invasion or intrahepatic metastasis, identified by preoperative DCP ≤ 150 mAU/mL.

The possible impact of sortilin in reducing HBsAg expression in chronic hepatitis B [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a major global health problem. Chronically infected people are at risk for progressive hepatic fibrosis and consequent cirrhosis.
