  Global prevalence and phylogeny of hepatitis B virus (HBV) drug and vaccine resistance mutations.
 PMID: 33893696       2021       Journal of viral hepatitis
Abstract: RAM M204I/V had the highest prevalence, occurring in 3.8% (109/2838) of all HBV sequences in our data set, and a significantly higher rate in genotype C at 5.4% (60/1102, p = 0.0007).
Discussion: A previous meta-analysis estimated the prevalence of M204I/V as 4.9% among >12,000 treatment-naive individuals, and another review reported a prevalence of M204I/V of 5.9% among 8435 treatment-naive individuals.
Discussion: For example, RAMs in HBV reverse transcriptase, A181T/V, M204I and M204V, cause corresponding changes in the overlapping region of HBsAg (W172 stop, W196S/L/Stop and  PMID: 33986897       2021       The Canadian journal of infectious diseases & medical microbiology
Discussion: Moreover, mutation frequency more than 30% was also analyzed; the pregnant women with higher mutation frequency did not have more proportion of HBV DNA load >=103 IU/mL at delivery compared with those patients with rtM204I < 30% (50.0% vs.
Discussion: The complexity of viral quasispecies and the frequency of rtM204I mutation had no significant increase a
Discussion: Two previous studies conducted rtM204I/V mutation testing with sensitive methods.


  Detection of Hepatitis B Virus M204V Mutation Quantitatively via Real-time PCR.
 PMID: 34007795       2021       Journal of clinical and translational hepatology
Introduction: In addition to a background of the mutations rtM204V/I, the other mutations, such as rtI169T, rtS184G, rtS202I and rtM250V, are associated with the emergence of ETV resistance.
Introduction: The mutations rtM204V/I represent one of the most common primary resistance mutations in hepatitis B patients, which directly decrease the susceptibility to NAs, especially to LAM and LdT.
Introduction: Therefore, we chose mutations rtM204V/I to be detected.


  Hepatitis B virus genetic heterogeneity and drug resistance among jaundiced patients at Coast General Teaching and Referral Hospital, Mombasa County, Kenya.
 PMID: 34234632       2021       International journal of health sciences
Discussion: In addition, there was no rtM204I mutation detected in the study; absence of this mutation with detection of rtM204V mutation confirms the predominance of genotype A in drug resistance mutations.


  Fast and Sensitive Real-Time PCR Detection of Major Antiviral-Drug Resistance Mutations in Chronic Hepatitis B Patients by Use of a Predesigned Panel of Locked-Nucleic-Acid TaqMan Probes.
 PMID: 34319801       2021       Journal of clinical microbiology
Abstract: Multiple-point mt, including rtL180M-rtM204V- rtN238A and rtL180M-rtM204I, were identified in only two children, resulting in LMV-ADF resistance and reduced ETV susceptibility.
Abstract: We developed a novel real-time PCR assay that simultaneously evaluates 11 major nucleos(t)ide antiviral (NA) drug resistance mutations (mt) in chronic hepatitis B patients (CHB), including L180M, M204I/V, and V207M (lamivudine [LMV]


  Hepatitis B in the Northwestern region of Sao Paulo State: genotypes and resistance mutations.
 PMID: 34755817       2021       Revista do Instituto de Medicina Tropical de Sao Paulo
Abstract: Resistance mutations (rtM204V/I/S) associated or not with compensatory mutations (rtL180M, rtV173L) were identified in 13.9% (5/36) of patients undergoing viral treatment and 1.1% (1/90) of naive patients.
Result: In the group of patients undergoing treatment, strains of HBV with resistance mutations (rtM204V/I/S) associated or not with compensatory mutations (rtL180M, rtV173L) were identified in 13.9% (5/36) of the analyzed samples.
Result: Strains with partial resistance mutations for ETV (rt


  Hepatitis B Virus preS/S Truncation Mutant rtM204I/sW196* Increases Carcinogenesis through Deregulated HIF1A, MGST2, and TGFbi.
 PMID: 32887289       2020       International journal of molecular sciences
Abstract: The rtM204I/sW196*  Abstract: The oncogenicity of another drug-resistant mutant, rtM204I/sW196*, has not been studied.
Conclusion: The HBV preS/S C-terminal truncation mutant sW196*, which may be selected in NA (3TC, Telbivudine, or Entecavir)-resistant rtM204I strains, potentially confers cell transformation and tumorigenesis ability through altered (up- or down-regulated) cellular transcriptions that orchestrate in different cancer-promoting sectors.


  Comprehensive Analysis of Clinically Significant Hepatitis B Virus Mutations in Relation to Genotype, Subgenotype and Geographic Region.
 PMID: 33381105       2020       Frontiers in microbiology
Method: According to the most recent clinical practice guidelines of the European Association for the Study of the Liver, the following amino acid substitution profiles for HBV-resistant mutants were used: rtM204V/I (LAM resistance), rtM204I or L180M + rtM204V (LdT resistance), rtA181T/V or rtN236T (ADV resistance), rtL180M + rtM204I/V +- rtT184S/G +-


  Viral hepatitis B and C in HIV-exposed South African infants.
 PMID: 33357228       2020       BMC pediatrics
Abstract: The rtM204I mutation associated with lamivudine resistance was identified in one infant, a second infant harboured the double A1762T/G1764A BCP mutation.
Result: Sequence analysis revealed the M204I mutation in the reverse transcriptase domain of the polymerase gene in the Durban sample while the Cape Town sample harboured the double A1762T/G1764A BCP mutation in the core gene.


  Mutational characterization of HBV reverse transcriptase gene and the genotype-phenotype correlation of antiviral resistance among Chinese chronic hepatitis B patients.
 PMID: 33124952       2020       Emerging microbes & infections
Introduction: Phenotypic studies showed that the LMV resistance arising from rtM204V/I in the YMDD motif, could negate sensitivity to LMV by more than 100-fold decrease compared with wild-type.
Introduction: The classic ETV resistance mutations rtT184G/rtS202I/rtM250V will reduce susceptibility to ETV, only in conjunction with additional LMV resistance mutations, such as rtM204V/I.
Result: Five AA sites identified with the significantly elevated entropy levels were rtL180M, rt
