| Core Tip |
The consequences of hepatitis B virus (HBV) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) co-infection on progression of severe liver diseases is a serious public health issue, worldwide. In HIV co-infected individuals, liver-related mortality is estimated over 17 times higher than those with HBV mono-infection. HIV co-infection significantly alters the natural history of hepatitis B, and therefore complicates the disease management. Thus, the clinical spectrum as well as the complexity of the HBV and HIV co-infection of liver offers challenging fronts to study the underlying molecular mechanisms, and to design effective therapeutic strategies.
