Background & Aims: Although viral quasi-species evolution may be related to pathogenesis of disease, little is known about this in hepatitis B virus (HBV); consequently, we aimed to evaluate the evolution of HBV quasi-species in patients with well-ch

In vitro studies of HBV core promoter mutations in hepatoma cell lines suggest that some mutations in core promoter transcription factor binding sites result in reduced core promoter activity and viral replication. We sought to validate this hypothes

Background: Hepatic fibrosis occurs because of injury to the liver parenchyma and biliary system. We have investigated the effect of an organic selenium anti-oxidant, ebselen, in the resolution of experimentally induced hepatic fibrosis, and evaluate

Extract of Salvia Miltiorrhiza (SM) has been widely used in traditional Chinese medicine for treating liver diseases. Recent experimental evidence indicates that it has anti-tumor potential. In this study, the effect of SM on alfatoxin B1 (AFB1)-indu
AIM: To investigate the role of polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1) as a therapeutic target for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). METHODS: PLK1 gene expression was evaluated in HCC tissue and HCC cell lines. Gene knockdown with short-interfering RNA (siRNA) was

MicroRNAs are tiny RNA molecules which serve as important post-transcriptional regulators of gene expression. Dysregulated expression of microRNAs has been observed in human cancers, indicating that microRNAs may function as oncogenes or as tumor sup

Chronic hepatitis B infection is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Despite effective vaccine and treatments, often unavailable in highly prevalent areas in Asia and Africa, the disease and economic burdens of the condition remain ve

CD8 T cells exert their antiviral function through cytokines and lysis of infected cells. Because hepatocytes are susceptible to noncytolytic mechanisms of viral clearance, CD8 T-cell antiviral efficiency against hepatotropic viruses has been linked

Small interfering RNA (siRNA) has been used repeatedly to down-regulate viral gene expression and inhibit viral replication in mammalian cells. In this study, we showed that siRNAs specific for two conserved regions within the hepatitis B S antigen (

Aflatoxin B(1) (AFB(1)), a potent hepatocarcinogen, enhances ROS formation and causes oxidative DNA damage, which may play a role in its carcinogenicity. We have demonstrated recently that ebselen, an organic selenium compound, protects against the c
