Infection by Hepatitis Delta Virus [PDF]
Viruses, 2020 Hepatitis delta virus (HDV) and hepatitis B virus (HBV) are blood-borne viruses that infect human hepatocytes and cause significant liver disease. Infections with HBV are more damaging when there is a coinfection with HDV.

Hepatitis Delta Virus RNA Replication
Viruses, 2009 Hepatitis delta virus (HDV) is a distant relative of plant viroids in the animal world. Similar to plant viroids, HDV replicates its circular RNA genome using a double rolling-circle mechanism.

Hepatitis Delta Virus–Host Protein Interactions: From Entry to Egress [PDF]
Viruses, 2023 Hepatitis delta virus (HDV) is the smallest known human virus and causes the most severe form of human viral hepatitis, yet it is still not fully understood how the virus replicates and how it interacts with many host proteins during replication.

A review on hepatitis D: From virology to new therapies
Journal of Advanced Research, 2019 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 ...
