Molecular biology and replication of hepatitis E virus

open access: yesEmerging Microbes and Infections, 2012
Hepatitis E virus (HEV), a single-stranded, positive-sense RNA virus, is responsible for acute hepatitis E epidemics in many developing countries, and the virus is also endemic in some industrialized countries.

The CYP2D6 animal model: how to induce autoimmune hepatitis in mice

open access: yes, 2012
Autoimmune hepatitis is a rare but life threatening autoimmune disease of the liver of unknown etiology1,2. In the past many attempts have been made to generate an animal model that reflects the characteristics of the human disease 3-5.

Autophagic response in the Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease, an animal model of virally-induced fulminant hepatic failure [PDF]

open access: yesVeterinary Research, 2014
The Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease Virus (RHDV) induces a severe disease that fulfils many requirements of an animal model of fulminant hepatic failure. However, a better knowledge of molecular mechanisms contributing to liver damage is required, and it is unknown whether the RHDV induces liver autophagy and how it relates to apoptosis.

Full-Genome Hepatitis B Virus Genotyping: A Juxtaposition of Next-Generation and Clone-Based Sequencing Approaches—Comparing Genotyping Methods of Hepatitis B Virus

open access: yesViruses
Background: The enhanced sensitivity of next-generation sequencing (NGS) for assessing hepatitis B virus (HBV) quasispecies heterogeneity over clone-based sequencing (CBS) is well documented.

CD4+ T cells reverse surface antigen persistence in a mouse model of HBV replication

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2023
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is responsible for over 800,000 deaths yearly worldwide. While chronic HBV infection currently has no highly effective cure, immunotherapy has generated interest as a potential therapeutic solution due to the connection between ...

Breaking tolerance to the natural human liver autoantigen cytochrome P450 2D6 by virus infection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Autoimmune liver diseases, such as autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) and primary biliary cirrhosis, often have severe consequences for the patient. Because of a lack of appropriate animal models, not much is known about their potential viral etiology. Infection

Use of Cellular Decapping Activators by Positive-Strand RNA Viruses

open access: yesViruses, 2016
Positive-strand RNA viruses have evolved multiple strategies to not only circumvent the hostile decay machinery but to trick it into being a priceless collaborator supporting viral RNA translation and replication.

Experimental Infection of Rabbits with Rabbit and Genotypes 1 and 4 Hepatitis E Viruses

open access: yes, 2010
Background: A recent study provided evidence that farmed rabbits in China harbor a novel hepatitis E virus (HEV) genotype. Although the rabbit HEV isolate had 77-79% nucleotide identity to the mammalian HEV genotypes 1 to 4, their genomic organization is

The course of hepatitis E virus infection in pigs after contact-infection and intravenous inoculation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background Worldwide, hepatitis E virus (HEV) genotype 3 is observed in pigs and transmission to humans is implied. To be able to estimate public health risks from e.g.
