Occult hepatitis B virus after acute self-limited infection persisting for 30 years without sequence variation.

Journal of hepatology - 1 Dec 2000

Bläckberg J, Kidd-Ljunggren K

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND/AIMS: After acute self-limited hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, serological loss of viral antigens and appearance of anti-HBs is generally believed to signify viral clearance. Latent and occult HBV infection appearing decades after self-limited hepatitis B has not been reported, nor has the evolutionary rate of HBV DNA over the same observation period. METHODS: DNA from serum and leukocytes from 16...
