Hepatitis B virus replication and integration
Chronic infection with hepatitis B virus (HBV) affects 240 million people worldwide and may cause liver disease including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Initially patients have high levels of HBV DNA in their blood, no liver disease and express the e antigen (HBeAg). At some point an immune response is mounted and the viral load decreases with several log10 copies/ml, they lose HBeAg and sever...
متن کاملrpb۵-mediating protein suppresses hepatitis b virus (hbv) transcription and replication by counteracting the transcriptional activation of hepatitis b virus x protein in hbv replication mouse model
conclusions our study demonstrated that a low dose of rmp could inhibit hbv transcription and replication, which is dependent on the appearance of hbx in vivo. results rpb5-mediating protein could inhibit hbv transcription and replication in groups transfected with the 1.2 wt and hbx. the inhibitory effect disappeared in the 1.2x (-) groups, yet it reappeared in the groups co-transfected with 1...
متن کاملThe 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 کاملAutophagy required for hepatitis B virus replication in transgenic mice.
Recent studies indicate that hepatitis B virus (HBV) may induce autophagy to enhance its replication in cell cultures. To understand whether autophagy can indeed enhance HBV replication in vivo, we generated HBV transgenic mice with liver-specific knockout of the Atg5 gene, a gene critical for the initiation of autophagy. Immunoblot analyses confirmed the inhibition of autophagy in the livers o...
متن کاملLimited hepatitis B virus replication space in the chronically hepatitis C virus-infected liver.
We compared the kinetics and magnitude of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection in hepatitis C virus (HCV)-naive and chronically HCV-infected chimpanzees in whose livers type I interferon-stimulated gene (ISG) expression is strongly induced. HBV infection was delayed and attenuated in the HCV-infected animals, and the number of HBV-infected hepatocytes was drastically reduced. These results suggest...
