Predictive value of HBeAg titer dynamics for HBsAg clearance in pediatric chronic hepatitis B
IntroductionAchieving functional cure of chronic hepatitis B (CHB), characterized by the loss of HBV DNA and HBsAg, remains challenging in adults but demonstrates higher success rates in children.

NIBV Induces Incomplete Autophagy via AMPK‐TFEB, Causing Kidney Injury in Chicks
This study reveals that NIBV can inhibit the nuclear translocation of TFEB by suppressing the expression of AMPK, leading to the blockade of autophagolysosomal functions, in turn increasing NIBV replication and triggering severe kidney injury in chicks.

Serum hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) kinetics in hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg)-negative chronic hepatitis B [PDF]
Abstract Background We investigated the differences in HBsAg kinetics at different levels of viremia in hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg)-negative chronic hepatitis B (CHB). Methods We compared HBsAg levels among HBeAg-negative CHB patients with persistently undetectable HBV ...

Glycopeptide Composition of Hepatitis B Surface Antigen
Three major polypeptides of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), with mol. wt. 22,000 (p22), 27,000 (p27) and 68,000 (p68), were separated by preparative SDS-PAGE. These three peptides as well as intact HBsAg were found to have almost identical amino acid compositions and carbohydrate was detected in p27 and p68 by PAS staining. Papain treatment of p68

ABSTRACT Liver metastasis is a leading cause of mortality in colorectal cancer (CRC), where the inflammatory tumor microenvironment, specifically neutrophil infiltration, significantly promotes metastatic colonization. This study reveals a pro‐metastatic role for alpha‐1 antitrypsin (A1AT) in CRC liver metastasis via a dual mechanism involving ...
