Core Tip |
Every year, our knowledge of occult hepatitis B infection becomes richer with new information. This review is an up-to-date analysis of the viral and host factors that interact and lead to an occult form of hepatitis B virus infection. The latest discoveries in microRNA involvement, epigenetic mechanisms, immune system factors, and viral variants have been included for a comprehensive understanding of this challenging problem. We emphasize that occult hepatitis B infection is not only and not primarily a virus-driven condition; host immune and epigenetic mechanisms are also its important determinants. |
