The burden of chronic hepatitis B virus infection in Australia, 2011

open access: yesAustralian and New Zealand Journal of Public Health, 2013
Objective: The number of Australians living with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) is thought to be increasing, as are adverse outcomes including cirrhosis and liver cancer, however, robust, up‐to‐date estimates of this burden are limited. Contemporary estimates

The Serumal Concentration of Hbsag in Patiets with Chb/hiv Co-infection Comparing with Chb Mono-infection in the Different Phases of Natural Course of Chronic Hepatitis В [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The prevalence and inclination to chronization of viral hepatitis B is 3 – 5 times higher in patients with HIV-infection than in HIV-negative ones. The natural clinical course of chronic hepatitis B (CHB) in patients with HIV has the features, connected ...

Differential regulation of ZFAS1 splice variants by endoplasmic reticulum stress in hepatocyte cell lines

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
ZFAS1 is a lncRNA promoting cell proliferation and migration, exhibiting high expression in various cancers. It is conserved, widely expressed, and produces multiple splice variants with unclear roles. We identified several splice variants in hepatocyte models, and found that inhibiting or suppressing regulators of the unfolded protein response (PERK ...

Alcohol‐induced altered glycans in human tracheal epithelial cells promote bacterial adhesion

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Alcohol induces altered glycans to promote bacteria adhesion. Heavy alcohol drinking is known to increase the risk of bacterial pneumonia. However, the link between alcohol levels and risk of infection remains underexplored. Recently, we found that alcohol induced α2‐6sialo mucin O‐glycans in human tracheobronchial epithelial cells, which mediated the ...

Pharmacological inhibition of the PERK pathway modulates hepatocellular carcinoma growth and immune signaling

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Pharmacological inhibition of PERK in a DEN‐induced mouse model of liver cancer does not reduce tumor burden but alters cellular stress signaling. Despite blocking PERK activity, downstream stress responses, including CHOP expression, remain active, suggesting compensatory mechanisms within the unfolded protein response that may influence tumor ...

Existing knowledge, myths, and perceptions about hepatitis B and liver cancer within highly impacted immigrant communities

open access: yesJournal of Virus Eradication
Background: Immigrant groups from Southeast Asia, the Pacific Islands, sub-Saharan Africa, and the Caribbean bear the heaviest burden of chronic hepatitis B and primary liver cancer in the United States.

HCV and HBV prevalence based on home blood self-sampling and screening history in the general population in 2016: contribution to the new French screening strategy

open access: yesBMC Infectious Diseases, 2019
Background The advent of effective direct-acting antivirals (DAAs), has prompted an assessment of the French Hepatitis C virus (HCV) screening strategy, which historically targeted high-risk groups. One of the options put forward is the implementation of

Prevalence of chronic hepatitis B in Oro Province, Papua New Guinea

open access: yesWestern Pacific Surveillance and Response, 2020
Chronic hepatitis B (CHB) affects over 250 million people worldwide. In Papua New Guinea (PNG) CHB prevalence has been estimated to be over 8% and is a leading cause of death. To address this problem, an alliance between the government of Oro Province, a
