| Research Abstract |
(1) Mechanism of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection and replication : (1)HBV core protein as well as core promoter mutations are associated with viral replication. (2)The replication of genotype G was supported by core proteins of the other genotypes. (3)The hollow-fiber 3D culture system is superior to conventional monolayer culture allowing maintenance of HBV replication for a substantially longer duration. (2) Clarification of liver condition progress mechanism : Infection with HBV/C2 as well as PC mutant in immunosuppressive conditions can induce direct cytopathic effect in "humanized" part of the murine liver due to the activation of hepatic stellate cells mediated by oxidative stress.
