HBV-Integration Studies in the Clinic: Role in the Natural History of Infection

open access: yesViruses, 2021
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a major global health problem causing acute and chronic liver disease that can lead to liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). HBV covalently closed circular DNA (cccDNA) is essential for viral replication

Measuring HBsAg and HBV DNA Levels in Cilegon [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background: Implication of measuring HBsAg level is still not recognized well. The aim of this study to recognize the correlation of serum HBsAg level and serum HBV DNA level between in HBeAg positive patients and HBeAg negative patients.

HBV DNA Quantitation Using Real-time PCR

open access: yesAnnals of Laboratory Medicine, 2006
Accurate measurement of the concentration of hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA in clinical samples is important for the appropriate treatment of patients and evaluation of their therapeutic responses. In addition, the concentration of HBV DNA in the serum of patients with chronic HBV infection has a very broad range.

Modulation of the CD8+-T-cell response by CD4+ CD25+ regulatory T cells in patients with Hepatitis B virus infection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
CD4+ CD25+ regulatory T cells have been shown to maintain peripheral tolerance against self and foreign antigens. In this study we analyzed the effect of circulating CD4+ CD25+ T cells on CD8+-T-cell responses of patients with chronic and resolved ...

Characterization of the hepatitis B virus DNA detected in urine of chronic hepatitis B patients

open access: yesBMC Gastroenterology, 2018
Background Detection of human hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA in the urine of patients with chronic hepatitis B infection (CHB) has been reported previously, suggesting urine could provide a potential route of horizontal HBV transmission.

Nano‐ and Micro‐Sized Solid Materials Used as Antiviral Agents

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Due to the rise of viral infections in humans and possible viral outbreaks, the use of nano‐ or micro‐sized materials as antiviral agents is rapidly increasing. This review explores their antiviral properties against RNA and DNA viruses, either as a prevention or a treatment tool, by delving into their mechanisms of action and how to properly assess ...
