Infectious Disease Clinics of North America, 1987
Since its chance discovery a mere decade ago, the delta agent has been characterized as a novel pathogen that poses the risk of developing into a scourge of modern times. With its unique single-stranded circular RNA, exclusive dependence on HBV for its replication, and characteristic ability to suppress hepatitis B synthesis, the delta agent has ...

Hepatitis delta virus (HDV) is a small, defective RNA virus that can infect only individuals who have hepatitis B virus (HBV); worldwide more than 15 million people are co-infected. There are eight reported genotypes of HDV with unexplained variations in their geographical distribution and pathogenicity.

Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 1997
The causative agent of hepatitis delta virus (HDV) is the most unusual of all causative agents for all hepatitis viruses. Current knowledge of the molecular biology of HDV strengthens its proposed classification within the satellites, a family of subviral agents, some of which are pathogens of higher plants.

The hepatitis D virus (HDV) is unique in animal virology. It is the smallest of human pathogens, re- quires the HBsAg capsid of the hepatitis B virus (HBV) to assembly into infectious virions, and parasitizes the transcriptional machinery of the host. Hepatitis D is ubiquitous but prevalence varies throughout the world.

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1989
In the ten years since the delta agent was discovered, major advances have been made in the understanding of its structure, genomic organization, replicative cycle, clinical course, and epidemiology. The recent breakthroughs in cloning of the HDV genome and development of animal models for study of this agent promise to transform these advances in ...

The Hepatitis Delta Virus (HVD) occupies a unique niche in humai virology. At variance with conventional animal viruses, it cannot replicate autonomously but requires the presence of the Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) to initiate infection. It behaves like a defective interfering agent, in that it ihibits the synthesis of the competent HBV helper once its ...

Delta Hepatitis and the Hepatitis Delta Virus
1989Since its discovery in 1977 by Rizzetto and co-workers from Turin, Italy, the hepatitis delta virus (HDV) has become a focus of worldwide interest—interest almost equal to its worldwide importance.1, 2 The delta antigen, which first appeared to be a poorly explained finding of immunofluorescence staining in liver biopsies from Italian chronic hepatitis

Delta hepatitis — Present status
Journal of Hepatology, 1985The hepatitis delta virus (Delta) is a defective RNA pathogen dependent for replication on obligatory helper functions provided by the hepatitis B virus (HBV). The virion is a particle of 35-37 nm, which encloses within a HBsAg coat the RNA genome and the Delta antigen, the specific immunologic expression of the new pathogen.

Twenty-five years ago Rizzetto et al. [1], while examining liver biopsies from individuals infected with HBV, discovered by immunofluorescence a previously unrecognized nuclear antigen that was subsequently shown to be a specific marker of a novel human pathogen, HDV. The clinical association with HBV results from the fact that HDV is a defective virus
