The Absence of Hepatitis C Virus Infection Among Patients with Hepatitis B virus in Mashhad, Iran
Background and Aims: Many studies have provided evidence for the role of hepatitis B and C viruses in the development of liver cancer. Although the routine treatment is available for both conditions, no definite guideline is available to treat patients dually infected with HBV and HCV. This study was performed to determine the frequency of HBV/HCV-coinfection in Mashhad, North-East of Iran. Mat...
متن کاملHepatitis B virus induced hepatocellular carcinoma.
A number of risk factors appear to play a role in Hepatocellularcinoma (HCC), HBV infection being one of the most important. Chronic inflammation and cytokines are key determinants in the development of fibrosis and liver cell proliferation. HBV DNA integration and/or expression of HBV proteins may have a direct effect on cellular functions. Occult hepatitis B virus infection is characterized b...

متن کاملAndrogen receptor promotes hepatitis B virus-induced hepatocarcinogenesis through modulation of hepatitis B virus RNA transcription.
Hepatitis B virus (HBV)-induced hepatitis and carcinogen-induced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are associated with serum androgen concentration. However, how androgen or the androgen receptor (AR) contributes to HBV-induced hepatocarcinogenesis remains unclear. We found that hepatic AR promotes HBV-induced hepatocarcinogenesis in HBV transgenic mice that lack AR only in the liver hepatocytes (...
متن کاملOncogenesis and transforming viruses: the hepatitis B virus and hepatocellularcarcinoma--the etiopathogenic link.
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the world's leading fatal malignancies. Chronic infection with the hepatitis B virus (HBV) has been implicated with the development of HCC. For the past three decades, intensive research has focused on the role of HBV in hepatocarcinogenesis. Various HBV-associated models have emerged, but increasing evidence points to two major HBV-specific mechanisms t...
