Hepatitis B virus lineages in mammalian hosts: potential for bidirectional cross-species transmission.

World journal of gastroenterology - 28 Jun 2014

Bonvicino Cibele R, Moreira Miguel A, Soares Marcelo A

Abstract excerpt

The hepatitis B virus (HBV) is a cosmopolitan infectious agent currently affecting over 350 million people worldwide, presently accounting for more than two billion infections. In addition to man, other hepatitis virus strains infect species of several mammalian families of the Primates, Rodentia and Chiroptera orders, in addition to birds. The mounting evidence of HBV infection in African, Asian and neotropical...
