  • Tip 2. You can use + symbol to restrict results containing all words.
    Example: +cell +stem
  • Tip 3. You can use + and - symbols to force inclusion or exclusion of specific words.
    Example: +cell -stem

Defective hepatitis B virus (dHBV) generated from spliced RNA is detected in the sera of HBV-chronic carriers. Our study was designed to determine whether the proportion of dHBV changed during the course of infection, and to investigate whether dHBV might interfere with HBV replication. To achieve this, HBV wild-type and dHBV levels were determined by Q-PCR in sera from 56 untreated chronic patients and 23 acute patients, in sequential samples from 4 treated-patients and from liver-humanized mice after HBV infection. The proportion of dHBV was higher in patients with severe compared to null/moderate liver disease or with acute infection. Follow-up showed that the proportion of dHBV increased during disease progression. By contrast, a low and stable proportion of dHBV was observed in the humanized-mouse model of HBV infection. Our results highlight a regulation of the proportion of dHBV during liver disease progression that is independent of interference with viral replication.
