Abstract excerpt

Chronic active hepatitis B (CAH-B), anti-HBe (+) has been associated with a hepatitis B virus variant carrying a stop codon at the distal pre-C region that prevents HBeAg synthesis. We analyzed the HBV DNA pre-C region in five members of a Turkish family. The mother presented an anti-HBe (+) CAH-B and the four children different hepatitis B virus serological and clinical profiles. The pre-C region was analyzed by...
