By using dual color fluorescence analysis, peripheral T cells can be divided into four different subsets, Leu-2a+15+, Leu-2a+15-, Leu-3a'S' and Leu-3a+8-cells. The ratio of these T cell subsets in hepatitis B virusinduced hepatitis patients was studied and compared with that of controls. No signific

The purposes of this study were 2-fold: (i) To enumerate peripheral immunoregulatory T cell subsets in untreated patients with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection and (ii) to examine the relationship between disturbances in the balance of lymphocyte subsets with liver disease and the presence
Sera of 17 HBeAg positive and 104 anti-HBe positive asymptomatic HBsAg carriers from two cohorts were tested for HBV DNA. HBV DNA was found in 13 of 17 HBeAg positive carriers (76.5%) and in only 7 of 104 of anti-HBe positive carriers (6.7%). Eleven of the 17 HBeAg positive carriers were retested fo
