Hepatitis E

Neurology Clinical Practice, 2019
We report 3 patients with (sub)acute onset of dyspnea and orthopnea caused by bilateral phrenic neuropathy as a neuralgic amyotrophy (NA) subtype. Excruciating pain, weakness, and atrophy were absent at presentation. All 3 patients were middle-aged men and had serologic evidence of acute hepatitis E virus (HEV) infection (IgM and PCR positive).

Evidence of viral adaptation to HLA class I-restricted immune pressure in chronic hepatitis C virus infection [PDF]

, 2006
Cellular immune responses are an important correlate of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection outcome. These responses are governed by the host's human leukocyte antigen (HLA) type, and HLA-restricted viral escape mutants are a critical aspect of this host ...

Experimental Infection of Rabbits with Rabbit and Genotypes 1 and 4 Hepatitis E Viruses [PDF]

, 2010
Background: A recent study provided evidence that farmed rabbits in China harbor a novel hepatitis E virus (HEV) genotype. Although the rabbit HEV isolate had 77-79% nucleotide identity to the mammalian HEV genotypes 1 to 4, their genomic organization is

Hepatitis E virus detection in liver tissue from patients with suspected drug-induced liver injury

Frontiers in Medicine, 2015
Hepatitis E virus (HEV) infection is increasingly recognized as a cause of acute hepatitis in the industrialized world. We aimed to determine the frequency of acute Hepatitis E virus (HEV) infection in cases of suspected drug-induced liver injury (DILI),

Hepatitis E Virus Entry [PDF]

Viruses, 2019
Hepatitis E virus (HEV) infection is a major cause of acute hepatitis worldwide. It is transmitted enterically but replicates in the liver. Recent studies indicate that HEV exists in two forms: naked, nonenveloped virions that are shed into feces to mediate inter-host transmission, and membrane-cloaked, quasienveloped virions that circulate in the ...
