The states of hepatitis B virus DNA, RNA transcripts and antigens (HBsAg and HBcAg) were studied in the liver with hepatocellular carcinoma by blot hybridization and immunohistological methods. We used whole hepatitis B virus DNA and gene specific probes (S, C and X genes) for hybridization. Integra

To explore the role of hepatitis B virus (HBV) X protein in liver carcinogenesis, independently from its role in viral replication, we have analyzed X gene structure and expression in tumorous and non-tumorous tissues obtained from 9 hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg)-negative, HBV DNApositive pati
Tumour, cirrhotic, and metastatic tissues from four patients with primary hepatocellular carcinoma have been investigated for the presence of hepatitis B viral DNA by nucleic acid hybridization. Tumours from two of three patients with a current HBV infection contained 1--2 genomes per cell of uninte
