## Abstract In hepatitis B virus (HBV)βendemic countries, the majority of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) arises in HBV carriers. High frequency of mutations at nucleotides 1762(AβT) and 1764(GβA) in the core promoter region have been described in HCC. Due to the differences in genetic backgrounds,

## Abstract Prolonged replication of hepatitis B virus (HBV) in liver tissues of hepatitis B patients has been considered as an important risk factor for the development of malignancy. Few studies on fullβlength HBV sequencing in association with the replication efficiency of isolates from HCC tiss
## Abstract The mechanisms for HBV persistence and the pathogenesis of chronic HB have been shown mainly due to defects in host immune responses. However, HBV isolates with different biological features may also contribute to different clinical outcomes and epidemiological implications in viral hep
## Abstract Relatively few genomic sequences of Korean hepatitis B virus (HBV) isolates are available. Moreover, no comparative study has been made between the fullβlength genomes of Korean HBV isolates and clinical status. To evaluate mutations in HBV isolates obtained from chronically infected HB
## Abstract Although Korea is a hepatitis B virus (HBV) endemic area, relatively few fullβlength genome sequences are available. In particular, no comparative analysis has been performed on the fullβgenome sequences of different HBV quasispecies from a single Korean patient. This report describes t
## Abstract Although no outbreaks of hepatitis E have been reported in Mongolia, a significant proportion of the general population had antibodies to hepatitis E virus (HEV). To investigate whether pigs are possible reservoirs of HEV in Mongolia, serum samples obtained from 243 2β or 3βmonthβold pi
