The X protein can act on the enhancer of hepatitis B virus in an in uitro system and elevate the transcriptional level of hepatitis B virus. However, because no relationship had been reported between X protein expression and hepatitis B virus replication in patients with chronic hepatitis B, we focu
Two patients with chronic type B hepatitis and intercurrent episodes of acute type A hepatitis are presented. Serological markers of hepatitis B virus replication decreased or became undetectable in both patients during the acute illness, while interferon activity was transiently detected in serum.
Hepatitis D virus and hepatitis B virus nucleic acids were detected by Northern and Southern blot hybridization in the sera and livers of 86 chronic carriers of HBsAg and anti-hepatitis D followed up for a mean of 10 yr. We identified three subsets of patients 13 with hepatitis D virus and hepatitis
