Hepatitis D Virus and Hepatocellular Carcinoma [PDF]
Hepatitis D virus (HDV) is a small, defective RNA virus that depends on hepatitis B virus (HBV) for virion assembly and transmission. It replicates within the nucleus of hepatocytes and interacts with several cellular proteins.

Chronic Hepatitis D Virus Infection and Its Treatment: A Narrative Review [PDF]
More than 12 million individuals worldwide are chronically infected with the hepatitis D virus (HDV). HDV infection is the most severe form of viral hepatitis since it requires hepatitis B virus co-infection and accelerates progression to cirrhosis and ...

Origins and Evolution of Hepatitis B Virus and Hepatitis D Virus [PDF]
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) Members of the family Hepadnaviridae fall into two subgroups: mammalian and avian. The detection of endogenous avian hepadnavirus DNA integrated into the genomes of zebra finches has revealed a deep evolutionary origin of hepadnaviruses that was not previously recognized, dating back at least 40 ...

Hepatitis D virus: is it all in the family?
Hepatitis delta virus (HDV) infection is the most severe form of chronic viral hepatitis: HDV-infected individuals are more likely to die from advanced liver disease compared with hepatitis B virus (HBV)-infected without HDV and their risk of developing hepatocellular carcinoma is up to nine times higher.1 HDV is a defective virus, using the HBV ...

Hepatitis D Virus Replication [PDF]
This work reviews specific related aspects of hepatitis delta virus (HDV) reproduction, including virion structure, the RNA genome, the mode of genome replication, the delta antigens, and the assembly of HDV using the envelope proteins of its helper virus, hepatitis B virus (HBV).
