Core Tip The molecular mechanisms underlying the relationships between occult hepatitis B virus infection and liver disease progression remain a mystery. The present study demonstrated that the HBsAg variant KD, which exhibits a secretion defective phenotype, universally induced endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress pathways in hepatocytes. This induction of ER stress may evoke ER stress-mediated biological actions that induce liver damaging processes, including ROS production, nitric oxide production, and apoptosis induction. In conclusion, occult infection related to hepatitis B virus S surface antigen variants may play a very pivotal role in the progression of liver diseases primarily via ER-derived oxidative stress and apoptosis in hepatocytes.
