Core Tip Serum gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) levels have been associated with treatment response in chronic hepatitis C patients. However, whether serum GGT levels are associated with chronic hepatitis B infection is unknown. This study provides evidence that serum GGT levels are significantly elevated in patients with hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg)-positive and HBeAg-negative hepatitis patients. Furthermore, serum GGT levels were investigated as a potential biomarker for the prediction of HBeAg seroconversion in patients with HBeAg-positive hepatitis following a 48-wk course of nucleos(t)ide analogue treatment.
