✦ Synopsis

Although HBV has a circular DNA genome that is partially double stranded, it replicates by means of an RNA intermediate. The process is catalyzed by a translation product of the polymerase open reading frame that has reverse transcriptase activity. The enzyme is

## Abstract Chronic hepatitis B infection is a major cause of hepatocellular cancer (HCC). The pathogenesis of the carcinogenesis is not fully understood. Viral proteins such as the X protein and the truncated middle S protein have been implicated to be transactivators. In order to investigate whet

There are many factors leading to intrauterine infection with hepatitis B virus (HBV). These factors include viral structure, HBV mutations, HBV DNA level, placenta barrier, immune status of the mother, and susceptibility of the fetus. The purpose of this study was to investigate the possible relati
