Virologic analysis of tenofovir resistance in a patient with chronic hepatitis B experiencing viral breakthrough during combination treatment with tenofovir disoproxil fumarate and entecavir.
Abstract: Four mutations (rtS106C, rtD134N/S[N/S], rtM204V, and rtL269I) plus ETV resistance (rtL180M and rtS202G) existed when she developed viral breakthrough during ETV and TDF combination therapy in April 2013.
Prevalence and significance of Hepatitis B reverse transcriptase mutants in different disease stages of untreated patients.
Abstract: rtS106C, rtD134E/G/N/S and A-B interdomain mutations may be associated with necro-inflammation, immune response and cirrhosis development at ages older than 40.
Abstract: And the rtD134E/G/N/S mutations were also higher in chronic hepatitis B patients (22/100, 22.0%) and cirrhotic patients (21/100, 21.0%) than that in hepatocellular carcinoma patients (10/100, 10.0%, P = 0.021 and P = 0.032 respectively).
Result: Additionally, A significant portion of patients with
