Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMeasurement of the Gene Expression and Polymorphisms of c-myc and p53 Genes in HBV Infected PatientsFayed Koutb, Salah Abdel-Rahman, Ehab Hassouna, Amany HaggagThis study explained the c-myc and p53 gene expression and polymorphisms in chronic (40), cirrhosis (30) and Hepatocellular Carcinoma, (HCC) (30) patients related to Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) infection and healthy control (50) in Egypt. Where, c-myc (intron 8) and p53 (codon 72) gene expression and polymorphisms were determined using qRT-PCR and PCR-RFLP techniques. The results showed that c-myc gene … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 22 Feb 2021 · 7,229 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDirect Acting Anti-Viral Drugs Improve Health-Related Quality of Life in Patients' with Hepatitis CWesam Morad, Warda Othman, Esam Elshimi, Nashwa SheblChronic hepatitis C Virus (HCV) causes significant decline in the Health Related Quality of Life (HRQL). Recently, direct Acting Anti-viral Drugs (DAA) have been endorsed as standard of care for treatment for HCV. To study the HRQL in patients with HCV and cirrhosis before and after DAA. Study design: Prospective cohort hospital based study. We included 500 patients with HCV … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 29 Apr 2020 · 7,145 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Association of HLA Class II Alleles with the Response to Alfa-Interferon/Ribavirin Therapy in Chronic Hepatitis C PatientsAwny Aly Abol-Ez Gawish, Nahla Abd El-Hamid Mohammed, Rasha Adel Sayed Ahmed Hussein, Elsaid Galal El-BadrawyHuman Leucocyte Antigens (HLA) class II appears to play an important role in the individual’s immune response to viral infection. The present study was aimed at assessment of the relationship between HLA DRB1 alleles and the response to HCV combined therapy in Chronic Hepatitis C patients (CHC). We enrolled a total of 44 chronically infected HCV patients without Hepatitis B … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 12 Nov 2015 · 6,700 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFactors Affecting the Response to Interferon Alpha Therapy in Egyptian HCV PatientsNaglaa F. Alhusseini, Fathy M. Serry, Ashraf A. Kadry, Heba KhairyHepatitis C Virus (HCV) infection is one of the main causes of chronic liver disease worldwide. Egypt has the highest prevalence of Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) in the world, estimated nationally at 14.7%. knowledge of the predictors of Sustained Viral Response (SVR) to Pegylated Interferon (PEG-INF) and Ribavirin (RBV) therapy in patients with chronic hepatitis C is crucial for selecting … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2015 · 6,619 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGENERALIZED REGRESSION NEURAL NETWORK BASED EXPERT SYSTEM FOR HEPATITIS B DIAGNOSISC. Mahesh, E. Kannan, M. S. SaravananHepatitis B is a potentially life-threatening liver infection caused by the hepatitis B virus. The virus interferes with the function of the liver while replicating in hepatocytes. It is a major global health problem and the most serious type of viral hepatitis. Chronic liver disease is caused by viral hepatitis and putting people at high risk of death from cirrhosis … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 3 Dec 2013 · 6,983 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHepatitis B Virus DNA Can be Amplified Directly From Dried Blood Spot on Filter PaperNaglaa Fathy Alhusseini, Mamdouh Z. Abadeer, Sheref M. El-TaherHepatitis B Virus (HBV) infections represent a major public health problem because of the ability of HBV to cause a chronic carrier state. Even though chronic carriers remain largely asymptomatic, a large number of these individuals subsequently develop cirrhosis and primary hepatocellular carcinomas. Dried Blood Spot (DBS) samples are a simple and inexpensive sampling method, especially useful for blood collection … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 22 Jun 2012 · 8,454 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvidences of Apoptosis in Hepatitis C Virus-Infected Hepatocytes and Peripheral Blood Monocuclear Cells in the Absence of Liver InjuryViviana Falcón, Nelson Acosta-Rivero, Mineko Shibayama et al.Understanding the mechanism of Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) pathogenesis is an important part of HCV research. In this study, the presence of apoptosis in HCV-infected liver and Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMC) from patients positive for anti-HCV antibodies and negative for serum HCV-RNA was investigated. The samples obtained from 21 patients were studied by in situ Hybridization (ISH), Immunofluorescence, TUNEL … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,975 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvidences of Hepatitis C Virus Replication in Hepatocytes and Peripheral Blood Monocuclear Cells from Patients Negative for Viral RNA in SerumViviana Falcón, Nelson Acosta-Rivero, Mineko Shibayama et al.In this study, we examined the expression of hepatitis C virus (HCV) components in hepatocytes and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from patients positive for anti-HCV antibodies and negative for serum HCV-RNA. The samples obtained from 25 randomly selected patients (13 of 25 patients showed no histological evidences of chronic hepatitis and had normal serum ALAT and GGTP levels) were … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,164 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetection of HCV Components and Pathological Reactions in Apoptotic Hepatocytes from Chronically HCV-infected PatientsViviana Falcón, Nelson Acosta-Rivero, Mineko Shibayama et al.Analysis of Hepatitis C Virus (HCV)-infected hepatocytes at the cellular level may contribute to elucidate the mechanisms of HCV pathogenesis.
