Assessment of the cross-protective capability of recombinant capsid proteins derived from pig, rat, and avian hepatitis E viruses (HEV) against challenge with a genotype 3 HEV in pigs [PDF]

, 2012
Hepatitis E virus (HEV), the causative agent of hepatitis E, is primarily transmitted via the fecal-oral route through contaminated water supplies, although many sporadic cases of hepatitis E are transmitted zoonotically via direct contact with infected ...

Hepatitis B Core-Related Antigen and New Therapies for Hepatitis B [PDF]

Microorganisms, 2021
The hepatitis B core-related antigen (HBcrAg) is an unprecedented novel HBV biomarker that plays an essential role in reflecting covalently closed circular DNA (cccDNA) in chronic hepatitis B (CHB) because its levels correlate with intrahepatic cccDNA and serum HBV DNA.

Clinical performance of a new hepatitis B surface antigen quantitative assay with automatic dilution

Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, 2015
Hepatitis B virus surface antigen (HBsAg) levels reflect disease status and can predict the clinical response to antiviral treatment; however, the emergence of HBsAg mutant strains has become a challenge.

Blocking entry of hepatitis B and D viruses to hepatocytes as a novel immunotherapy for treating chronic infections [PDF]

, 2021
Background. Chronic hepatitis B and D virus (HBV/HDV) infections can cause cancer. Current HBV therapy using nucleoside analogues (NAs) is life-long and reduces but does not eliminate the risk of cancer.

Electrofocusing of Hepatitis B Antigen

Journal of General Virology, 1973
Summary Hepatitis B (Australia) antigen was isolated from normal serum proteins by gel filtration and electrofocusing. The latter technique revealed a heterogeneity of the small spherical particles associated with hepatitis B antigen activity, there being a variance in determined isoelectric points according to the serological subtype studied ...

Hepatitis B Antigen in Saliva

The Tohoku Journal of Experimental Medicine, 1973
Hepatitis B antigen (HB Ag) detectable only by means of rvdioimmnnoassay was found in saliva of 5 out of 36 mentally retarded children in an institution. Electron microscopic study of purified antigen in saliva revealed the presence of tubular and small Dane particles.

Humoral Immune Memory to Hepatitis B Vaccine after Primary Vaccination of Children and Adolescents in Assiut, Egypt

Oman Medical Journal, 2020
Objectives: We sought to assess the prevalence of hepatitis B virus (HBV) seroprotection among vaccinated children in the Assiut governorate, Egypt, and assess a booster dose immune memory response among non-seroprotected children.

Adaptive Learning Expert System for Diagnosis and Management of Viral Hepatitis [PDF]

International journal of artificial intelligence and applications, 2019, Volume 10, Number 2, 2019
Viral hepatitis is the regularly found health problem throughout the world among other easily transmitted diseases, such as tuberculosis, human immune virus, malaria and so on. Among all hepatitis viruses, the uppermost numbers of deaths are result from the long-lasting hepatitis C infection or long-lasting hepatitis B. In order to develop this system,
