Viral hepatitis in subhuman primates and its relationship to human viral hepatitis

Virchows Archiv Abteilung A Pathologische Anatomie, 1969
Viral hepatitis can occur spontaneously in chimpanzees and patas monkeys, usually producing only mild clinical symptoms which are difficult, if not impossible, to recognize without adequate laboratory studies or liver biopsy. The disease, however, can be transferred to other subhuman primates as well as to human beings by contact.

Advances in the diagnosis and management of human viral hepatitis

Dental Clinics of North America, 2003
This article presents a comprehensive review of viral hepatitis types A through G and TTV. The information that is provided includes the definition, causes, signs and symptoms, diagnosis, pathogenesis, and acute and chronic forms of hepatitis. The modes of transmission, risk groups, morbidity and mortality, epidemiology, and treatment modalities are ...

Viral hepatitis: Human genes that limit infection

Best Practice & Research Clinical Gastroenterology, 2010
Treatment response and susceptibility to chronic viral hepatitis C and B may be modified by host genetic factors. The majority of genetic variants that confer a significant risk have been localized in genes involved in immune response. However, many findings could not be replicated and almost none of the identified risk factors had a noticeable impact ...

Viral Hepatitis Associated with Sub‐human Primates*

Transfusion, 1963
Recent epidemiologic evidence has accumulated indicating that certain chimpanzees and other primates act as carriers of human hepatitis virus. Outbreaks of human hepatitis in which primates have been so implicated are summarized in this paper, and the significant epidemiologic findings are emphasized.

Primates as a Model for Human Viral Hepatitis: Transmission of Infection by Human Hepatitis B Virus

Vox Sanguinis, 1973
Abstract. With complement fixation, Australia antigen was detected in one, and antibody in 6 out of 50 chimpanzees. Seven other apes, and 48 monkeys were negative. All positive chimpanzees clustered in one colony comprising 15 animals, and antibody titres decreased simultaneously over a period of several months.

Studies on natural cytotoxicity of human monocytes in viral hepatitis

Immunology Letters, 1985
Studies on natural cytotoxicity of peripheral blood monocytes were conducted in patients with acute viral hepatitis B, patients with chronic aggressive hepatitis etiopathogenically linked to viral hepatitis B, and in asymptomatic carriers of HBs antigen.

Glucose Tolerance and Metabolic Changes in Human Viral Hepatitis

Clinical Science, 1973
1. Glucose tolerance and metabolic changes after intravenous glucose were studied in fifteen patients with acute viral hepatitis and in eight patients after recovery. In the acute stage glucose tolerance was significantly impaired compared with control subjects or with patients after recovery from hepatitis. 2.

Time course of hepatitis A viremia and viral load in the blood of human hepatitis A patients

Journal of Medical Virology, 2003
AbstractThe hepatitis A virus (HAV) is the most common etiological cause of acute hepatitis infections in humans in industrialized countries. Investigations into the viral load during HAV viremia, however, are rare. Therefore, correlation studies between viral load, biochemical, and specific serological markers have been undertaken.

Attempted treatment of fulminant viral hepatitis with human fibroblast interferon

Infection, 1985
Beta-interferon was administered by intravenous infusion to 16 patients affected with fulminant hepatitis B virus infection in third or fourth-grade coma. Ten patients presented a superinfection or a co-infection due to the delta (delta)-agent. None had detectable interferon (IFN) activity before therapy was begun.

Acute viral hepatitis: Morphologic and functional correlations in human livers

Human Pathology, 1984
The usual histologic pattern in acute viral hepatitis (AVH) includes cellular abnormalities predominantly in the perivenular (zone 3) hepatocytes and changes interpreted as representing regenerative activity in the periportal (zone 1) hepatocytes. Enzyme histochemical and ultrastructural studies of livers of 12 patients with AVH were undertaken to see ...
