Hepatitis Delta Virus Acts as an Immunogenic Adjuvant in Hepatitis B Virus-Infected Hepatocytes
Summary: Hepatitis delta virus (HDV) requires hepatitis B virus (HBV) to complete its infection cycle and causes severe hepatitis, with limited therapeutic options.

Histone mimicry of viral components is a strategy to subvert host factors for virus replication. Here, the authors show that an acetylated histone-like motif of the small Hepatitis Delta Antigen (S-HDAg) interacts with the chromatin remodeler BAZ2B to ...

Hepatitis Delta Virus (HDV) and Delta-Like Agents: Insights Into Their Origin
Hepatitis delta virus (HDV) is a human pathogen, and the only known species in the genus Deltavirus. HDV is a satellite virus and depends on the hepatitis B virus (HBV) for packaging, release, and transmission.

Escaping high viral load exhaustion: CD8 cells with altered tetramer binding in chronic hepatitis B virus infection [PDF]
Deletion, anergy, and a spectrum of functional impairments can affect virus-specific CD8 cells in chronic viral infections. Here we characterize a low frequency population of CD8 cells present in chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection which survive in

ГЕПАТИТ ДЕЛЬТА: ЭТИОЛОГИЯ, КЛИНИКА, ДИАГНОСТИКА, ТЕРАПИЯ (ЛЕКЦИЯ ДЛЯ ПРАКТИЧЕСКИХ ВРАЧЕЙ)
A significant part of liver disease, once considered the result of infection by hepatitis B virus (HBV), are the result of infection HBV, and hepatitis delta virus (HDV).

A Divergent Hepatitis D-Like Agent in Birds
Hepatitis delta virus (HDV) is currently only found in humans and is a satellite virus that depends on hepatitis B virus (HBV) envelope proteins for assembly, release, and entry.

Human hepatitis Delta virus (HDV) infection is associated to the most severe viral hepatic disease, including severe acute liver decompensation and progression to cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. HDV is a satellite of hepatitis B virus (HBV) that

The large form of hepatitis delta antigen is crucial for assembly of hepatitis delta virus. [PDF]
The virions of hepatitis delta virus (HDV) contain two species of HDV-specific protein, a large and a small form of hepatitis delta antigen (HDAg). We examined the role of individual HDAgs in virion assembly in cotransfection experiments. First, we constructed a replication-competent HDV mutant expressing only the small HDAg.

Viral adaptation to host immune responses occurs in chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, and adaptation is greatest in HBV e antigen-negative disease [PDF]
Hepatitis B virus (HBV)-specific T-cell responses are important in the natural history of HBV infection. The number of known HBV-specific T-cell epitopes is limited, and it is not clear whether viral evolution occurs in chronic HBV infection. We aimed to
