Role of hepatitis B virus genotype D & its mutants in occult hepatitis B infection.

The Indian journal of medical research - 1 Sept 2013

Sengupta Sonali, Panda Subrat Kumar, Acharya Subrat Kumar, Durgapal Hemlata

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES: Non-detection of hepatitis B virus (HBV) envelope protein (hepatitis B surface antigen, HBsAg) in a chronically HBV infected individual has been described as occult infection. One possible reason for this phenotype is alteration in large (L-HBsAg) to small (S-HBsAg) envelope protein ratio associated with reduced or non secretion of HBsAg. This results in quantitative levels of serum HBsAg...
