Viral dynamics in hepatitis B virus infection.
Treatment of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infections with the reverse transcriptase inhibitor lamivudine leads to a rapid decline in plasma viremia and provides estimates for crucial kinetic constants of HBV replication. We find that in persistently infected patients, HBV particles are cleared from the plasma with a half-life of approximately 1.0 day, which implies a 50% daily turnover of th...
متن کاملLiver lesions in hepatitis B viral infection.
A review is made of the various histological lesions observed in hepatitis B virus-related liver diseases, including different forms of acute and chronic hepatitis, cirrhosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. The elementary lesions discussed include acidophil necrosis (apoptosis), confluent lytic necrosis in its different patterns, piecemeal necrosis, focal necrosis, and dysplastic hepatocytes. Th...
متن کاملPre-S1 antigens and antibodies early in the course of acute hepatitis B virus infection.
The presence of the two "large" surface proteins of hepatitis B virus (HBV), P39 and GP42 of pre-S1-hepatitis B surface antigen, was assayed in the serum of an experimentally infected chimpanzee by using antibodies to a pre-S1-specific fusion protein synthesized in Escherichia coli. The immune response to pre-S1-hepatitis B surface antigen was monitored by using the pre-S1 fusion protein as an ...
متن کاملRelationship between hepatitis B DNA Viral load in the liver and it\'s histology in patient with chronic hepatitis B
Background: Serial measurement of hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA levels in the liver and its relation with liver damage and serum HBV DNA levels are guide to begin and/or end a treatment course. This study evaluated the relationship between liver hepatitis B DNA viral load with liver histology in patients with chronic hepatitis B (HBV). Methods: Thirty patients with chronic anti-Hbe positive ...
متن کاملImmunological cross-reactivities of woodchuck and hepatitis B viral antigens.
Woodchuck sera were tested for antigens and antibodies with tests which detect human hepatitis virus antigens and antibodies. Data on 264 woodchuck sera are presented.
