In Vivo Models of HDV Infection: Is Humanizing NTCP Enough?
The discovery of sodium taurocholate co-transporting polypeptide (NTCP) as a hepatitis B (HBV) and delta virus (HDV) entry receptor has encouraged the development of new animal models of infection.

Estimation of the Secondary Attack Rate for Delta Hepatitis Coinfection among Injection Drug Users
The secondary attack rate for delta hepatitis coinfection was estimated among a cluster of injection drug users (IDUs). The infections occurred during an epidemic of hepatitis B in a rural area of Nova Scotia in 1988 and 1989.

A review on hepatitis D: From virology to new therapies
Hepatitis delta virus (HDV) is a defective virus that requires the hepatitis B virus (HBV) to complete its life cycle in human hepatocytes. HDV virions contain an envelope incorporating HBV surface antigen protein and a ribonucleoprotein containing the ...

Autoantibodies in hepatitis delta
Hepatitis delta virus infection is associated with a wide range of different autoantibodies. The humoral immune response in chronic hepatitis D is directed against the cytoskeleton, the nucleus, the nuclear lamina and the endoplasmic reticulum. Smooth muscle antibodies (SMA), basal cell layer antibodies (BCLA), stellate epithelial cell antibodies (SECA)
