Two chimpanzees with persistent non-A, non-B (NANB) hepatitis were superinfected with marmoset-passaged MS-1 HAV. Two control chimpanzees were also infected with marmoset-passaged HAV. Neither animal with persistent NANB hepatitis developed elevated alanine aminotransferase (ALT) activity, whereas b

β¦ Synopsis
Non-A, non-B (NANB) viral hepatitis was successfully transmitted to two colony-born Tamarins following inoculation with antihaemophilic factor VIII concentrate or the "H" inoculum. Both animals showed histological and ultrastructural evidence of viral hepatitis, with raised alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels from the second week after inoculation through to the end of follow-up, 5 months later.

All etiologies of acute viral hepatitis are associated with a transient suppression of hemopoiesis and, rarely, with the development of aplastic anemia. Both hepatitis A and hepatitis B viruses directly inhibit the growth and differentiation of human bone marrow progenitor cells in vitro. We now rep
## Abstract Many cases of acute hepatitis remain undiagnosed and the hepatitis E virus (HEV) is emerging in industrialized countries. The aim of this study was to assess the role HEV as causative agent in acute nonβA, nonβB, and nonβC hepatitis patients in Hungary. 10.5% of the 264 acute nonβA, non
A DNA hybridization assay was used to detect hepatitis B virus (HBV)-specific DNA sequences in extracted sera obtained from chimpanzees infected with HBV, hepatitis A virus (HAV), and a factor VIII-derived non-A/non-B (NANB) agent. The results did not reveal any HBV-DNA homology with sera obtained f
Although hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection has been shown to be associated with development of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), few studies have investigated the association between chronic HBV infection and NHL. The purpose of this study was to compare the incidence of NHL between patients with and wi
