LP14306-2   Hepatitis B virus
Hepatitis B is a disease of the liver caused by the Hepatitis B virus (HBV), a member of the Hepadnavirus family and one of several unrelated viral species which cause viral hepatitis. It was originally known as serum hepatitis and has caused recent epidemics in parts of Asia and Africa. Symptoms of the acute illness include liver inflammation, vomiting, jaundice, and rarely, death. Chronic hepatitis B may cause liver cirrhosis which may then lead to liver cancer.

LP38320-5   Hepatitis B virus DNA
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA is a marker of viral replication which can be detected early in acute hepatitis, even when indirect measures of HBV replication -- HBeAG and HBeAB are negative, as in immuno-compromised or immuno-suppressed patients. Detection of HBV DNA in serum four weeks after the ALT peak or eight weeks after onset of symptoms in acute viral hepatitis B. HBV DNA is an important independent predictor of response to prednisone/interferon thearpy in CVH-B. Source: Regenstrief Institute
