Hepatitis D virus

Reviews in Medical Virology, 1998
The hepatitis D virus (HDV) relies on the helper hepatitis B virus (HBV) for the provision of its envelope, which consists of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg). The RNA genome of HDV is a circular rod-like structure due to its extensive intramolecular base-pairing.

Hepatitis D Virus Infection

The Nurse Practitioner, 1989
The hepatitis D virus (HDV) was first detected in Italy in 1977 and is the etiologic agent of type D hepatitis. A defective RNA virus, HDV depends completely on the hepatitis B virus for its expression and replication. HDV infection can cause a severe form of hepatitis with high mortality rates.

Hepatitis B virus replication modulates pathogenesis of hepatitis D virus in chronic hepatitis D

Hepatology, 1991
Hepatitis D virus and hepatitis B virus nucleic acids were detected by Northern and Southern blot hybridlzation in the sera and livers of 85 chronic carriers of HBsAg and anti-hepatitis D followed up for a mean of 10 yr. We identified three subsets of patients: 13 with hepatitis D virus and hepatitis B virus viremia, 53 with ...

Hepatitis B Virus and Hepatitis D Virus Recurrence in Patients Undergoing Liver Transplantation for Hepatitis B Virus and Hepatitis B Virus Plus Hepatitis D Virus

Transplantation Proceedings, 2016
In this study, we retrospectively analyzed the recurrence of hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis D virus (HDV) infection after liver transplantation for HBV and HBV+HDV co-infection.Data from patients infected with HBV and HBV+HDV who underwent liver transplantation between March 2003 and June 2013 at the Liver Transplantation Institute of Inonu ...

New Treatments for Chronic Hepatitis B Virus/Hepatitis D Virus Infection

Clinics in Liver Disease, 2021
Chronic hepatitis D virus (HDV) infection is the most severe form of viral hepatitis with high rates of end-stage liver disease and hepatocellular carcinoma. Therefore, effective antiviral treatment strategies are needed desperately. Until recently, antiviral treatment was limited to pegylated interferon-alpha.

Hepatitis D Virus

2017
The hepatitis D virus (HDV) was described in 1977, and it is considered the most pathogenic among all hepatotropic viruses. HDV infection occurs worldwide, but highly endemic areas have been well documented in South America and sub-Saharan Africa. The highest prevalence of HDV in Latin America is in the Western Amazon Basin region, including Brazil ...

Perinatal transmission of hepatitis B virus-associated hepatitis D virus

Annales de l'Institut Pasteur / Virologie, 1988
Sera from 185 HBsAg carrier, pregnant Saudi women were tested for HBeAg, antibody to HBeAg (anti-HBe) and for antibody to hepatitis D virus (anti-HDV); 9.7% of the carrier mothers were anti-HDV-positive and the majority of them (94.4%) were anti-HBe-positive.

Virology of Hepatitis D Virus

Seminars in Liver Disease, 2012
Although much of the current understanding of the replication of hepatitis D virus (HDV) has been gained from ex vivo rather than in vivo studies, many seemingly unique aspects have been discovered. These include the ultra-small size and circular conformation of the RNA genome, the presence on the viral RNAs of two ribozymes, the role of RNA-directed ...
