Analysis of hepatocellular carcinoma associated with hepatitis B virus
J Cell Mol Med. 2023 Jul 30. doi: 10.1111/jcmm.17867. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe hepatitis B virus (HBV) is considered one of the main driving forces in the development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Human HBV is a partially double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) virus consisting of approximately 3.2 kbp. HBV predominantly infects hepatocytes via the receptor sodium taurocholate cotransporting polypeptide (NTCP) and coreceptor hepatic proteoglycan. The replication of HBV in hepatocytes leads to apoptosis while simultaneously leading to cirrhosis and cancer. Although the integration of dsDNA into the hepatocyte genome seems...

Prevalence of equine parvovirus-hepatitis in healthy broodmares in Ontario, Canada
This study investigated the prevalence of EqPV-H DNA in 170 healthy broodmares of various breeds located on 37 farms in southern Ontario, Canada. The occurrence of EqPV-H infection was determined by quantitative PCR for EqPV-H DNA in serum samples. The effects of age, breed, season, pregnancy status, and equine herpesvirus-1 (EHV-1) vaccination history on EqPV-H status were also investigated. There was a prevalence of 15.9% (27/170) with viral loads of EqPV-H ranging from detectable to 2900 copies/mL. Statistical analysis showed that increasing age was a significant factor in the detection of EqPV-H DNA. Neither breed, sea...
