The epsilon motif of hepatitis B virus RNA exhibits a potassium-dependent ribonucleolytic activity.

Only registered users can translate articles

Fourteen different classes of ribozymes are known that catalyse a range of diverse chemical reactions. We report here a novel potassium-dependent nucleolytic activity present in hepatitis B virus (HBV) RNA. A short RNA region (53 nt) with enzymatic properties released itself from the viral sequence

[Increased expression of KCTD9, a novel potassium channel related gene, correlates with disease severity in patients with viral hepatitis B].

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Studies have shown that potassium channel plays a pivotal role in T cell activation. The expression of potassium channel gene KCTD9 was evidenced being highly upregulated in patients with severe hepatitis B (SHB). To understand this phenomenon further, tissue and cellular expression

Reversal of Proximal Renal Tubular Dysfunction after Nucleotide Analogue Withdrawal in Chronic Hepatitis B.

Only registered users can translate articles

UNASSIGNED Proximal renal tubular dysfunction (PRTD) is an infrequent complication after nucleotide analogue therapy. We evaluated the outcomes of PRTD and nephrotoxicity after nucleotide analogue withdrawal in chronic hepatitis B (CHB). UNASSIGNED A longitudinal follow-up study was performed in

In Situ Generation of Prussian Blue with Potassium Ferrocyanide to Improve the Sensitivity of Chemiluminescence Immunoassay Using Magnetic Nanoparticles as Label.

Only registered users can translate articles

Using magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) as a label in immunoassay (IA) possesses advantages such as high specific surface area, simple modification process. However, the catalytic activity of MNPs is low, which limits their applications in IA. The present study found it interesting that potassium

Predictors of refractory ascites development in patients with hepatitis B virus-related cirrhosis hospitalized to control ascitic decompensation.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Refractory ascites (RA) is closely related to a high morbidity and mortality. In this study, we investigated predictors of RA development in patients with hepatitis B virus (HBV)-related cirrhosis who were hospitalized to control ascitic decompensation, and determined predictors for

Demonstration of a Ribozyme in Epsilon Domain of Hepatitis B Virus RNA

Only registered users can translate articles

The epsilon domain of Hepatitis B virus plays a crucial role in encapsidation of viral pregenomic RNA and its partial NMR structure has been determined. However, we recently described a potassium-dependent ribonucleolytic activity associated with this region, so that a 53 nt long RNA containing the

Erythema nodosum migrans in a male patient with hepatitis B infection.

Only registered users can translate articles

Erythema nodosum migrans (ENM) is believed to represent a variant of chronic erythema nodosum; however, others consider it to be a separate clinical entity. It most commonly affects women in the third to sixth decade of life. Most cases are idiopathic, but some may be associated with streptococcal

Isaacs syndrome associated with chronic hepatitis B infection: a case report.

Only registered users can translate articles

Isaacs syndrome or acquired neuromyotonia is a disorder of peripheral nerve hyperexcitability characterized by regular or irregular myokymia, muscle cramps and stiffness, delayed muscle relaxation after contraction, and hyperhidrosis. Herein, we report clinical and electrodiagnostic findings of a

Evaluation of the new automated enzymun-test anti-HBc plus for the detection of hepatitis B virus core antibody.

Only registered users can translate articles

The new automated Enzymun-Test anti-HBc Plus for the detection of antibodies to hepatitis B virus (HBV) core antigen (anti-HBc) after pretreatment with reducing agents dithiothreitol (25 degrees C; + DTT) or potassium bisulfite (37 degrees C; + MBS) was evaluated by testing 571 serum and plasma

Effect of the strength of adsorption of hepatitis B surface antigen to aluminum hydroxide adjuvant on the immune response.

Only registered users can translate articles

Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) is known to adsorb to aluminum hydroxide adjuvant (AH) by ligand exchange between its accessible phosphate groups and surface hydroxyl groups of the adjuvant. To study the effect of the binding strength, five vaccines were prepared with AH or four samples of AH

KCTD9 contributes to liver injury through NK cell activation during hepatitis B virus-induced acute-on-chronic liver failure.

Only registered users can translate articles

We explored the expression of a newly identified potassium channel tetramerisation domain containing 9 (KCTD9) protein in 113 blood and 81 liver samples, from patients with mild chronic hepatitis B (CHB) or HBV-induced acute-on-chronic liver failure (HBV-ACLF). KCTD9 was highly expressed in

Inhibition of hepatitis B virus (HBV) replication by pyrimidines bearing an acyclic moiety: effect on wild-type and mutant HBV.

Only registered users can translate articles

Chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection remains a major health problem worldwide. The main clinical limitation of a current antiviral drug for HBV, lamivudine, is the emergence of drug-resistant viral strains upon prolonged therapy. A group of 5-, 6-, or 5,6-substituted acyclic pyrimidine

A Scorpion Defensin BmKDfsin4 Inhibits Hepatitis B Virus Replication in Vitro.

Only registered users can translate articles

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a major worldwide health problem which can cause acute and chronic hepatitis and can significantly increase the risk of liver cirrhosis and primary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Nowadays, clinical therapies of HBV infection still mainly rely on nucleotide

Nephrogenic hypophosphatemic osteomalacia during adefovir monotherapy for chronic hepatitis B monoinfection.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND In this paper, we explore nephrogenic hypophosphatemic osteomalacia associated with low-dose adefovir dipivoxil (ADV) therapy. METHODS Five patients who were treated with ADV for >2 years were included in this study. The metabolic index of phosphate and calcium, renal tubular function,
