Abstract: Furthermore,
rtI187V HBV remained susceptible towards treatment with LAM or ADV in vitro whereas the combination of the
rtI187V substitution with LAM-resistant mutations rendered HBV resistant to LAM but still sensitive to ADV.
Abstract: However, the emergence of the
rtI187V substitution significantly impaired viral replication but without affecting drug sensitivity in vitro.
Abstract: In vitro phenotypic assays showed that the viruses bearing the
rtI187V substitution had impaired replication efficacy when compared with the WT and the virus carrying
rtI187V combined with LAM-resistant single or double mutations showed even
