Hepatitis B and hepatitis delta virus infection in South America.
About 100,000 cases of acute hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection occur annually in South America. The overall prevalence of HBV infection in low risk populations ranges from 6.7% to 41%, while hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) rates range from 0.4% to 13%. In high endemicity aboriginal or rural populations, perinatal transmission may play a major part in the spread of HBV. In urban populations,...
متن کاملConstruction and Eukaryotic Expression of Recombinant Large Hepatitis Delta Antigen
Background: Hepatitis delta virus (HDV) is a subviral human pathogen that exploits host RNA editing activity to produce two essential forms of the sole viral protein, hepatitis delta antigen (HDAg). Editing at the amber/W site of HDV antigenomic RNA leads to the production of the large form (L-HDAg), which is required for RNA packaging. Methods: In this study, PCR-based site-directed mutagen...

results 12 (14.8%) patients had positive results for both hdv rna and anti-hdv. the mean alt level was higher in hdv positive patients (75.9 u/ml) than hbv-mono-infected individuals; however, the mean hbv viral load was lower in coinfected patients than hbv-mono-infected patients. phylogenetically, genotype i was the only detected genotype, and the most closely related isolates were of turkish,...
