Core Tip |
There is no exact evidence about the frequency of mutations in hepatitis B virus (HBV) pre-C and basic core promoter (BCP) regions of HBV in Shanxi Province and the correlation between mutations and disease-related indicators. Here, we found that the frequency of pre-C mutations was higher in hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg) negative patients, and liver function parameters AST and GGT in the mutation group were higher than those in the wild-type group; however, DNA replication did not increase in the presence of HBV pre-C and BCP mutations. Taken together, HBeAg-negative patients tend to have HBV pre-C mutation. However, these mutations do not cause increased DNA copies, but associate with liver function damage.
