Hepatitis C virus antibodies in a long-term follow-up of beta-thalassaemic children with acute and chronic non-A non-B hepatitis The presence of antibodies toward hepatitis C virus (HCV) was examined in 78 polytransfused betathalassaemic children. The anti-HCV status was correlated w... M ...
All probable HepA cases were assessed for acute HepA infection using microparticle enzyme immunoassay (MEIA) to detect the presence of anti-HepA virus IgM antibodies. MEIA was performed in a private central laboratory. An index value >1.20 indicated a positive test result; an index value <0.80 ...
At 24 h post-transfection, cells were lysed for Western blotting using antibodies recognizing E1 or E2. (b,c) Interaction between the E27 and E1/E2 glycoproteins was determined by co-immunoprecipitation. A plasmid expressing Myc-tagged E27 was co-expressed with either Flag-tagged E1 (b) or...
Therefore, patients with a chronic liver disease (because of hepatitis B or hepatitis C) are advised vaccination with the hepatitis A vaccine. This study is aimed to determine the seroprevalence of hepatitis A virus (HAV) antibodies in patients infected with hepatitis C virus or hepatitis B ...
All subjects were tested for HCV infection by measuring HCV antibodies and antibody-positive subjects were tested for HCV RNA if these data was unavailable from medical records. HCV RNA was measured either by branched chain DNA or PCR-based assays. The lower level of detection of the assays ...
These cells were then stained with diluted antibodies. The FLAG epitope in the fusion proteins was detected using anti-FLAG monoclonal antibody M2 (Sigma, USA) followed by goat anti-mouse immunoglobulin conjugated to Alexa Fluor 555 dye (Beyotime). The HCV Core protein was detected using an ...
Serological testing for hepatitis A, B, and C, cytomegalovirus, and HIV were negative or showed past immunisation. No autoimmune hepatitis-associated antibodies were found. She was diagnosed with LQTS, torsades de points (TdP), acute viral hepatitis E, hyponatremia, hypoalbuminemia. The patient ...
This finding has clinical significance, as patients on biologics are at a higher risk of infections and tend to have a faster decay in antibodies to vaccines over time. This has been shown in patients with IBD treated with IFX after taking a COVID-19 vaccine [38]. Additionally, it would ...
Second, residue 126 is part of the so-called 'a' determinant (residues 124–147), which is exposed on the virion surface and constitutes a major target of neutralizing antibodies. Indeed, immune escape mutations such as G145R frequently arise during the late stages of HBV infection or in ...
