Hepatitic B virus surface antigen (HBsAgT cell clonesT cell growth factor (TCGFFive T-cell clones reactive with HBsAg were obtained from peripheral blood lymphocytes of a HBV vaccine recipient by means of in vitro stimulation of lymphocytes for 5 days by HBsAg and subsequent re-culture of ...

Routine use of the automated chemiluminescent microparticle immunoassay Abbott ARCHITECT® anti-HBc for diagnosis of hepatitis B is limited in case of borderline reactive sera with low signal close to the cut-off index. In order to determine the significance of anti-HBc detection when borderline r...
Among individuals infected with HBV, those who express the HBV surface antigen (i.e., HBsAg carriers) are approximately 20 times more likely to develop HCC than those who do not[6]. Clinical observations and death statistics support the view that chronic hepatitis B and C appear to progress ...
To understand the neutralization mechanism and immunological nature of HEV, we previously determined the crystal structure of the antigen-binding fragment (Fab) of a genotype-specific neutralizing (herein referred to as genotype 1-preferred) monoclonal antibody (mAb), 8C11, in complex with HEV E2s...
Hepatitis B vaccine induces the production of antibodies against hepatitis B surface antigen (anti-HBs) and prevents hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. However, 5–10% of individuals cannot develop anti-HBs even after multiple vaccinations (HB vaccine non-responders). We developed an intranasal vac...
Hepatitis B core antigen stimulates interleukin-10 secretion by both T cells and monocytes from peripheral blood of patients with chronic hepatitis B virus infection. Clin. Exp. Immunol. 2004, 135, 462–466. [Google Scholar] [CrossRef] Iwamoto, M.; Saso, W.; Sugiyama, R.; Ishii, K.; ...
Hepatitis E Virus Capsid Antigen (HEV-Ag) – A practical diagnostic biomarker in the HEV outbreak scenario 2021, Journal of Clinical Virology Citation Excerpt : In acute uncomplicated HEV genotype 1 both viremia (blood HEV RNA) and fecal shedding of virus (stool HEV RNA) have recently been dem...
Results Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) testing was transiently reactive following administration of G–CSF when examined using a test kit from one manufacturer, but not another. No other cause was found. Conclusion A false-reactive test for HBsAg using one manufacturer's test kit can occur ...
