We have previously reported an analysis of DNA extracted from 31 primary liver tumors where, in 25 cases, we found chromosomal integration of hepatitis B virus DNA sequences. We describe here an investigation of the extent of the viral genome at each integration site in 15 of the hepatitis B virus D
DNA extracts from hepatocellular carcinomas of 13 patients from South Africa were examined for hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA sequences by molecular hybridization using [32P]-labeled recombinant, cloned, and purified HBV-DNA. Eight patients were HBV carriers as demonstrated by the presence of hepatitis
## Abstract The DNA of tumor tissue K1 obtained at autopsy from a case of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in a 9βyearβold boy contained integrated hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA at a single site in the chromosome (case 2, Chang et al.: Hepatology 13:316β320, 1991). To characterize further the integrate
By digestion with Hindlll restriction enzyme, a human hepatocellular carcinoma was shown to contain only 2 hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA inserts. Both Hindlll fragments (8 and 16 kb) were molecularly cloned and the structures of HBV DNA and adjacent host sequences were analyzed. One clone (AYH 8) cont
To investigate the relationship between hepatocarcinogenesis and integration of hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA in the cellular DNA of the liver, we studied the integration of HBV DNA in various noncancerous regions of the liver from 31 patients using Southern blot analysis. Of 13 patients without hepat
