DNA of hepatitis B virus is found to be integrated into the genome of infected human liver cells and may be related to the development of primary liver carcinoma. We have previously reported the cloning of cellular DNA with integrated HBV sequences from the PLC/PRF/5 cell line which derives from a human primary liver carcinoma. Two clones, designated as A-10.7 and A-10.5, and a third uncloned fragment are compared by restriction enzyme mapping, hybridization and nucleotide sequencing. The results indicate that amplification of integrated viral DNA and host flanking regions has occurred, followed by transposition and/or major deletions. The implications of these findings for the development of primary liver carcinoma are discussed. 相似文献

We cloned the integrated ground squirrel hepatitis B virus (GSHV) sequences from two hepatomas showing a single viral insertion. The GSHV inserts shared structural features with integrated DNAs of other hepadnaviruses. Insertional activation of a cellular gene appears unlikely: the integrated GSHV sequences lacked the known viral enhancers and were not expressed in the tumors, and we found no evidence for the presence of a gene at the integration site. Our results, together with those earlier studies, suggest that GSHV does not behave as an extensive insertional mutagen, in sharp contrast with the closely related woodchuck hepatitis virus. GSHV may thus cause carcinogenesis by more indirect mechanisms, as does the human hepatitis B virus. 相似文献

We cloned several unique forms of woodchuck hepatitis virus, a DNA virus closely related to hepatitis B virus, from a chronically infected woodchuck liver. Each of the three clones contained more than two genome equivalents of viral sequences with extensive rearrangements and no detectable cellular sequences. From the frequency by which they were isolated from a library of recombinant clones, we estimate that they are present in approximately one copy per cell. Of a total of 11 sites at which rearrangements were mapped in the clones, 10 occurred between segments of opposite polarity, and 1 occurred between segments of the same polarity. The possible significance of these findings to the persistence of virus production in infected cells is discussed. 相似文献

We have isolated and determined the structure of a recombinant clone in lambda phage Charon 30 which contains woodchuck hepatitis virus sequences integrated in woodchuck genomic DNA sequences. This clone, in contrast to previously reported clones (Ogston et al., Cell 29:385-394, 1982), was isolated from a chronically infected liver which never developed hepatocellular carcinoma. Southern blot analysis of viral sequences in the clone in conjunction with electron microscope heteroduplex analysis showed that the integrated viral sequences did not contain internal rearrangements, as have those from hepatomas, but were colinear with the cloned viral genome except for the deletion of approximately 500 base pairs of viral sequences (between positions 1,000 and 1,550 on the viral map). Therefore, the integration was probably a defective genome incapable of supporting viral replication. However, the complete open reading frames coding for the viral X, core, presurface , and surface antigen genes were present, indicating that the viral sequences could code for viral antigens. Southern blot analysis of the normal cellular flanking sequences, using flanking sequence probes from the clone, showed that no detectable rearrangements of cellular DNA (less than 50 base pairs) had occurred at the site of viral integration. 相似文献

Duck hepatitis B virus (DHBV) DNA synthesis in congenitally infected ducks is inhibited by 2'-deoxycarbocyclic guanosine (2'-CDG). Three months of therapy reduces the number of infected hepatocytes at least 10-fold (W.S. Mason, J. Cullen, J. Saputelli, T.-T. Wu, C. Liu, W.T. London, E. Lustbader, P. Schaffer, A.P. O'Connell, I. Fourel, C.E. Aldrich, and A.R. Jilbert, Hepatology 19:393-411, 1994). The present study was performed to determine the kinetics of disappearance of infected hepatocytes and to evaluate the role of hepatocyte turnover in this process. Essentially all hepatocytes were infected before drug therapy. Oral treatment with 2'-CDG resulted in a prompt reduction in the number of infected hepatocytes. After 2 weeks, only 30 to 50% appeared to still be infected, and less than 10% were detectably infected after 5 weeks of therapy. To assess the possible role of hepatocyte turnover in these changes, 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BUdR) was administered 8 h before liver biopsy to label host DNA in hepatocytes passing through S phase, and stained nuclei were detected in tissue sections by using an antibody reactive to BUdR. The extent of nuclear labeling after 5 weeks was the same as that before therapy (ca. 1%). However, biopsies taken after 2 weeks of therapy showed a ca. 10-fold elevation in the number of nuclei labeled with BUdR. This result suggested that a rapid clearance of infected hepatocytes by 2'-CDG was caused not just by the inhibition of viral replication but also by an acceleration of the rate of hepatocyte turnover. To test this possibility further, antiviral therapy was carried out with another strong inhibitor of DHBV DNA synthesis, 5-fluoro-2',3'-dideoxy-3'-thiacytidine (524W), which did not accelerate hepatocyte turnover in ducks. 524W administration led to a strong inhibition of virus production but to a slower rate of decline in the number of infected hepatocytes, so that ca. 50% (and perhaps more) were still infected after 3 months of therapy. In addition, histopathologic evaluation of 2'-CDG-treated ducks revealed liver injury, especially at the start of therapy. No liver damage was observed during 524W therapy. These results imply that clearance of infected hepatocytes from the liver is correlated with hepatocyte turnover. Thus, in the absence of immune clearance or other sources for the accelerated elimination of infected hepatocytes, inhibitors of virus replication would have to be administered for a long period to substantially reduce the burden of infected hepatocytes in the liver. 相似文献

In this study, we analysed the frequency of micronuclei (MN), nucleoplasmic bridges
(NPBs) and nuclear buds (NBUDs) and evaluated mutagen-induced sensitivity in the
lymphocytes of patients chronically infected with hepatitis B virus (HBV) or
hepatitis C virus (HCV). In total, 49 patients with chronic viral hepatitis (28
HBV-infected and 21 HCV-infected patients) and 33 healthy, non-infected blood donor
controls were investigated. The frequencies (‰) of MN, NPBs and NBUDs in the controls
were 4.41 ± 2.15, 1.15 ± 0.97 and 2.98 ± 1.31, respectively. The frequencies of MN
and NPBs were significantly increased (p < 0.0001) in the patient group (7.01 ±
3.23 and 2.76 ± 2.08, respectively) compared with the control group. When considered
separately, the HBV-infected patients (7.18 ± 3.57) and HCV-infected patients (3.27 ±
2.40) each had greater numbers of MN than did the controls (p < 0.0001). The
HCV-infected patients displayed high numbers of NPBs (2.09 ± 1.33) and NBUDs (4.38 ±
3.28), but only the HBV-infected patients exhibited a significant difference (NPBs =
3.27 ± 2.40, p < 0.0001 and NBUDs = 4.71 ± 2.79, p = 0.03) in comparison with the
controls. Similar results were obtained for males, but not for females, when all
patients or the HBV-infected group was compared with the controls. The lymphocytes of
the infected patients did not exhibit sensitivity to mutagen in comparison with the
lymphocytes of the controls (p = 0.06). These results showed that the lymphocytes of
patients who were chronically infected with HBV or HCV presented greater chromosomal
instability. 相似文献

Attention was directed to hepatitis B virus (HBV) integration in tissues obtained from an hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) of an 11-year-old boy and from the liver of his 6-year-old brother, who had chronic active hepatitis. Multiple HBV DNA integration sites were demonstrated in both tissues. Cell population(s) in the HCC and liver from the patient with chronic active hepatitis were assumed to be heterogeneous with regard to HBV integration. The integrated forms in the two tissues showed similar genetic organization without gross rearrangement. The location of one of the virus-chromosomal junctions was restricted to the 5'-end region of the minus-strand DNA of HBV. The experimental results support our previous model for the mechanism of HBV integration, in which minus-strand replicative intermediates integrate into chromosomal DNA. The integrated HBV DNAs were conserved in the same region of the viral genome, spanning from the C gene through the S gene to the X gene, which contains intrinsic promoter-enhancer sequences. 相似文献

Approximately 10% of German-bred Pekin ducks were found to be chronically infected with duck hepatitis B virus (DHBV). The genomes of three German DHBV isolates analyzed were closely related but showed substantial restriction site polymorphism compared with U.S. isolates. We tested the infectivity of three sequence variants of cloned DHBV DNA by injecting them into the liver of virus-free ducklings. Most of these animals injected with double-stranded closed-circular or plasmid-integrated dimer DHBV DNA developed viremia, demonstrating the infectivity of all three cloned DHBV DNA variants. The cloned viruses produced were indistinguishable from those from naturally infected animals, implying that our experimental approach can be used to perform a functional analysis of the DHBV genome. 相似文献

Frequencies of spontaneous DNA rearrangement within or near integrated simian virus 40 (SV40) DNA were measured in four transformed mouse and rat cell lines of independent origin and in five clones of the SV40-transformed mouse line SVT2. Rearrangements were detected as polymorphisms of restriction enzyme fragment length in subclones of the lines. At least 17% of the subclones of each line had detectable rearrangements. The rate of rearrangement was calculated to be at least 5 x 10(-3) events per cell per division. No rearrangements were detected in sequences of an immunoglobulin gene, part of the coding region of the mouse protein p53, and five proto-oncogenes. The possible role of recombination between duplicated segments of integrated SV40 DNA in generating rearrangements was studied in the five SVT2 clones, which differed in the number of duplications within a single SV40 DNA segment. The SVT2 clone that had no duplications, M3, became rearranged further at least as frequently as did closely related lines with one, two, or three duplications. Another line in this group that had one small duplication, X1, had a much higher frequency of rearrangement than did the others; integrated SV40 DNA of X1 became mostly rearranged within 100 cell divisions. The examples of M3 and X1 suggested that the high rate of rearrangement characteristic of integrated SV40 DNA was influenced more by the presence of particular sequences within or near integrated SV40 DNA than by the number or extent of duplicated sequences. 相似文献

Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) are thought to control hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, since they are readily detectable in patients who clear the virus whereas they are hard to detect during chronic HBV infection. In chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, however, the virus persists in the face of a CTL response. Indeed, most infected patients respond to one or more HCV-1 (genotype 1a)-derived CTL epitopes in the core, NS3, and NS4 proteins, and the CTL response is equally strong in patients infected by different HCV genotypes, suggesting broad cross-reactivity. To examine the effect of the HCV-specific CTL response in patients with chronic hepatitis C on viral load and disease activity, we quantitated the strength of the multispecific CTL response against 10 independent epitopes within the HCV polyprotein. We could not detect a linear correlation between the CTL response and viral load or disease activity in these patients. However, the CTL response was stronger in the subgroup of patients whose HCV RNA was below the detection threshold of the HCV branched- chain DNA assay than in branched-chain-DNA-positive patients. These results suggest that the HCV-specific CTL response may be able to control viral load to some extent in chronically infected patients, and they indicate that prospective studies in acutely infected patients who successfully clear HCV should be performed to more precisely define the relationship between CTL responsiveness, viral clearance, and disease severity in this infection. 相似文献

Using a polymerase chain reaction-based assay on total cell lysates, we have detected unintegrated human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) DNA in chronically infected T-lymphocytic (ACH-2, J1) and promyelocytic (OM-10.1) cell lines. Treatment with 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine (AZT) or soluble CD4 inhibited accumulation of unintegrated viral DNA about 10-fold within 72 h; removal of AZT permitted recovery to pretreatment levels within 72 h. Our results indicate that unintegrated HIV-1 DNA is unstable in these cell lines and originates from a continuous process of reinfection. OM-10.1 cells had relatively high levels of surface CD4 by flow cytometry and high levels of unintegrated viral DNA by polymerase chain reaction. ACH-2 cells had very low levels of both surface CD4 and unintegrated viral DNA. However, J1 cells, with surface CD4 below the level of detection of flow cytometry had a high level of unintegrated viral DNA similar to that of OM-10.1 cells. This implies that the number of CD4 receptors is not rate limiting for reinfection. 相似文献
