Delta hepatitis agent: structural and antigenic properties of the delta-associated particle [PDF]

Infection and Immunity, 1984
Delta agent (delta) was serially passaged to a second and third hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) carrier chimpanzee, using as inoculum the peak delta antigen (delta Ag) serum of an animal previously infected with human serum. The characteristics of serially transmitted delta Ag were similar to those described in first-passage animals.

Cell cycle arrest mediated by hepatitis delta antigen

FEBS Letters, 1999
Hepatitis delta antigen (HDAg) is the only viral‐encoded protein of the hepatitis delta virus (HDV). This protein has been extensively characterized with respect to its biochemical and functional properties. However, the molecular mechanism responsible for persistent HDV infection is not yet clear.

Removal of the C6 Vaccinia Virus Interferon-β Inhibitor in the Hepatitis C Vaccine Candidate MVA-HCV Elicited in Mice High Immunogenicity in Spite of Reduced Host Gene Expression

Viruses, 2018
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) represents a major global health problem for which a vaccine is not available. Modified vaccinia virus Ankara (MVA)-HCV is a unique HCV vaccine candidate based in the modified vaccinia virus Ankara (MVA) vector expressing the ...

Antigen-driven clonal proliferation of B cells within the target tissue of an autoimmune disease: the salivary glands of patients with Sjögren's syndrome [PDF]

, 1998
Structures resembling germinal centers are seen in the salivary glands of patients with Sjögren's syndrome, but it is not known whether the microenvironment of these cell clusters is sufficient for the induction of a germinal center response.

IgA class antibodies to hepatitis delta virus antigen in acute and chronic hepatitis delta virus infections [PDF]

Hepatology, 1991
Sera from 31 patients with chronic hepatitis delta virus infection and 18 patients with acute hepatitis delta virus infection were examined for IgA class antibodies to this virus using a newly developed enzyme immunoassay. IgA antibody to hepatitis D virus was detected in 21 (67.7%) of 31 patients with chronic delta viral ...

Histone H1e interacts with small hepatitis delta antigen and affects hepatitis delta virus replication

Virology, 2008
Hepatitis delta virus (HDV) encodes two isoforms of delta antigens (HDAgs). The small form of HDAg (SHDAg) is required for HDV RNA replication, while the large form of HDAg (LHDAg) is required for viral assembly. Using tandem affinity purification method combined with mass spectrometry, we found that linker histone H1e bound to SHDAg.
