Treatment for hepatitis B in patients with drug resistance

Abstract: Persistent hepatitis B virus (HBV) infections affect about 240 million patients worldwide that are at risk of developing liver cirrhosis or hepatocellular carcinoma. HBV is a small, partially double stranded DNA virus with four overlapping genes and a unique life cycle, which involves the generation of an RNA template for replication via reverse transcription. Mutations occur frequently during chronic infection, and particular selection pressures select distinct mutants. Nucleoside and nucleotide analogues lik… Show more

“…In vitro, this rtA194T polymerase mutation is associated with partial drug resistance against TDF. On the other hand, the rtA194T mutation reduces susceptibility to TDF and impairs viral replication capacity of HBV constructs in vitro, possibly explaining the low occurrence of this mutant form in clinical practice [11][12][13] .…”

“…Bu çalışmada, bir yıl süre ile LAM kullanmış 50 hastanın 12'sinde (%24) LAM direncine neden olan mutasyonların varlığı belirlenmiştir. Yapılan çalışmalarda, LAM dirençli suş oranları ve direnç tipleri farklılık göstermektedir (8)(9)(10)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21) .…”

“…Lamivudin tedavisi alan hastalarda YMDD mutasyon oranları tedavinin birinci yılında yaklaşık %23 iken, tedavinin 4-5. yıllarından sonraki oranlar ise %70-80'leri bulmaktadır (10) . Mutasyonların erken belirlenmesi, klinik deği-şiklikleri anlamak ve tedavi değişikliklerini hız-landırmak için gereklidir (11) .…”

“…Interestingly, the double mutants of L180M/M204V of LMV produce much higher viral loads than the single mutant M240I. It reflects the double point mutation accelerates the viral replication better than the single point mutation; this is probably due to the stabilizing effect of L180M mutation (B domain) on the YMDD loop (C domain) in a conformational model of the HBV reverse transcriptase …”
