Characterization and molecular modeling of a highly stable anti-Hepatitis B surface antigen scFv
(2003)
We raised a mouse monoclonal antibody (5S) against the 'a' epitope of the Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) by selecting for binding of the hybridoma supernatant in conditions that usually destabilize protein-protein ...
Etiopathogenesis of acute hepatic failure: Eastern versus Western countries
(2002)
Etiopathogenesis of acute hepatic failure (AHF) in Eastern and Western countries is distinct. In the East hepatitis viruses cause AHF in more than 95% of such cases, while causes of AHF in the West are quite heterogenous. ...
Management of multiple intrahepatic recurrences after radiofrequency ablation of hepatocellular carcinoma with rhenium-188-HDD-lipiodol
(2006)
We tried to evaluate the role of dosimetry-guided transarterial radionuclide therapy (TART) with rhenium-188 (Re-188)-4-hexadecyl 1-2,9,9-tetramethyl-4,7-diaza-1,10-decanethiol (HDD)-lipiodol in a patient with multiple ...
Frequency and role of hepatitis-C virus and type II cryoglobulinemia in membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis
(2004)
BACKGROUND: Many studies have claimed a major role of chronic hepatitis-C virus (HCV) infection in immune-mediated diseases such as membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN). Chronic HCV infection is also known to ...
A study of autoimmune markers in hepatitis C infection.
(2001)
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES: Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is associated with several autoimmune markers. Despite HCV being common in India, no information on this aspect is available. This study was undertaken to ascertain ...
Acute hepatic failure in India: a perspective from the East
(2000)
Acute hepatic failure (AHF) in India almost always presents with encephalopathy within 4 weeks of the onset of acute hepatitis. Further subclassification of AHF into hyperacute, acute and subacute forms may not be necessary ...
Incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma among Indian patients with cirrhosis of liver: an experience from a tertiary care center in northern India
(2007)
BACKGROUND/AIM: Despite bearing the main burden of HCC, prospective studies from developing countries are lacking. This prospective observational study was designed to estimate the incidence of HCC among Indian patients ...
Role of surface promoter mutations in hepatitis B surface antigen production and secretion in occult hepatitis B virus infection
(2007)
The production, secretion, and localization of surface proteins of hepatitis B virus (HBV) and the ratio of large to small surface protein S was studied in HepG2 cells transfected with the wild-type and mutant pre-S1 and ...
Acral and palmo-plantar hyperpigmentation in a patient with disseminated hepatocellular carcinoma
(2007)
Capecitabine (5-fluorouracil prodrug) is being evaluated for the management of hepatocellular carcinoma, and is associated with a peculiar skin reaction called hand and foot syndrome (HFS). We describe one patient with HCC ...
A Randomized Controlled Trial of Antioxidant Supplementation for Pain Relief in Patients with Chronic Pancreatitis.
(2008)
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Oxidative stress has been implicated in the pathophysiology of chronic pancreatitis (CP). We evaluated the effects of antioxidant supplementation on pain relief, oxidative stress and antioxidant status ...
