Detection of non-A, non-B hepatitis antigen by immunocytochemical staining.
Liver tissue obtained from a chimpanzee during the acute phase of an experimental non-A, non-B (NANB) hepatitis virus infection was studied by a sensitive immunocytochemical staining procedure for the presence of NANB viral antigens. Initial investigations were conducted with a model system of hepatitis B virus (HBV) antigens for purposes of comparing two immunocytochemical staining methods. Of...
متن کاملNon-A, non-B hepatitis.
Diagnosis of non-A, non-B hepatitis (NANB) is made after exclusion of other known causes of hepatitis. Parenterally spread non-a, non-B hepatitis (PNANB) and enterally transmitted non-A, non-B hepatitis (ENANB) almost certainly appear to be two different diseases. The definite causative agents have not hitherto been identified. Much of our knowledge of NANB is based on (i) experimental studies ...
متن کاملNon A/non B hepatitis.
The concept that human viral hepatitis was caused by no more than two etiologic agents stemmed from early volunteer studies in which two epidemiologically distinct types of hepatitis were transmitted to humans (1). These experimentally transmitted diseases closely resembled two forms of naturally occurring viral hepatitis that could be distinguished on epidemiologic grounds. One form was highly...

1 Dodecanissou Street, Athens 12351, Greece. Abstract To assess the safety and possible efficacy of recombinant human interferon alfa-2b in preventing the development of chronic hepatitis, 24 adults (eight men, 16 women) with acute non-A, non-B (NANB) hepatitis were recruited to a pilot study. Half of the cases were parenterally transmitted and half were community acquired. Twelve patients rece...
متن کاملAntibody to hepatitis B core antigen as a paradoxical marker for non-A, non-B hepatitis agents in donated blood.
The relationship between the presence of antibody to hepatitis B core antigen (anti-HBc) in donor blood and the development of hepatitis in recipients of that blood was studied in 6293 blood donors and 481 recipients who were followed for 6 to 9 months after transfusion. Of 193 recipients of at least 1 unit of blood positive for anti-HBc, 23 (11.9%) developed non-A, non-B hepatitis compared wit...
