Hepatitis B virus strains in Thailand: genomic variants in chronic carriers.

Journal of medical virology - 1 Dec 1995

Kidd-Ljunggren K, Ekdahl K, Oberg M, Kurathong S, Lolekha S

Abstract excerpt

Genetic heterogeneity of the hepatitis B virus (HBV) has been shown to influence the serological pattern and clinical picture in HBV infection. Thailand has a high transmission rate of HBV, but the molecular epidemiology of HBV strains circulating in this region was hitherto unknown. In this study, the HBV strains from 34 Thai HBsAg-positive patients were investigated. In a proportion of these samples, an...
