Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) and S-Escape Mutants: From the Beginning until Now

2015-04-18

Abstract excerpt

In spite of the progress made in vaccine and antiviral therapy development, hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection remains a major health care problem. More than 240 million people are chronically infected worldwide showing differences in the severity of liver disease, clinical outcome and response to immune- and antiviral-therapy. Parameters associated to the host immune system (HBV specific T- and/or B-cell repertoir...
