## Abstract Recently, hepatitis B virus (HBV) genotypes and mutations have been reported to be related to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This crossβsectional caseβcontrol study examined the relationship between HCC and mutations in the enhancer II/core promoter and precore regions of HBV by compar

Mutations in the core promoter and precore regions are frequently found in hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg)-negative patients, but precore stop codon mutation is restricted to hepatitis B virus (HBV) genotypes that have T at nucleotide 1858. The aims of this study were to determine the role of core pro
To investigate the meaning of the mutations in the enhancer 2/core promoter (Enh2/CP) region of hepatitis B virus (HBV) during the chronic HBV infection, mutations were examined in the Enh2/ CP region (carboxyl half of X region) and their correlation with mutations in the precore and core regions in
## Abstract This study aimed to determine hepatitis B virus (HBV) mutations associated independently with the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), as adjusted with other mutations in the preS and core promoter regions of HBV genotypes B and C. One hundred and forty HBVβinfected patients with HCC
