IL28B, TLR7 SNPs, and cytomegalovirus infection are risk factors for advanced liver disease in chronic hepatitis C patients

Fatma Omar Khalil, Ayman Alsebaey, Zeinab Abdelaziz Kasemy, Sabry Moawad Abdelmageed, Hanan Mosaad Bedair, Shimaa Abdelsattar

Summary: The study revealed that IL28B, TLR7 SNPs, and cytomegalovirus infection are risk factors for advanced liver disease progression in hepatitis C patients. Patients with cirrhosis and HCC showed higher TLR7 genetic variability and increased cytomegalovirus infection rates.

The relationship between liver pathological inflammation degree and pyroptosis in chronic hepatitis B patients

Yao Wang, Xun Li, Qian Chen, Fangzhou Jiao, Chunxia Shi, Maohua Pei, Luwen Wang, Zuojiong Gong

Summary: This study examined the correlation between liver pathological inflammation degree and pyroptosis in patients with chronic hepatitis B. The expression of NLRP3, GSDMD, caspase1, IL-18, and IL-1 beta was found to be positively correlated with the grade of inflammatory activity in liver tissue. High expression of these molecules may play a role in liver tissue inflammation and damage in CHB patients.

Increased Circulating T Follicular Helper Cells Induced via IL-12/21 in Patients With Acute on Chronic Hepatitis B Liver Failure

Bingying Du, Jiaming Teng, Rongkun Yin, Yuanyuan Tian, Tingwang Jiang, Yanan Du, Wei Cai

Summary: The study found that the frequency of T follicular helper (Tfh) cells significantly increased in HBV-ACLF patients, correlating with MELD score. Additionally, HBV-ACLF patients had higher serum levels of IL-12 and IL-21. Naive CD4(+) T cells from healthy controls differentiated into Tfh cells when exposed to serum from HBV-ACLF patients.

Summary: HBV genotypes E to J are understudied and have specific distributions across different regions. Genotype F is the most divergent and has further subgenotypes. There is a lack of data from sub-Saharan Africa and Latin America due to under-representation in clinical and research cohorts.

Predictive power of Interleukin-28B gene variants for outcome of Hepatitis C Virus genotype 4 in Egyptians: A systematic review and meta-analysis

Mohamed Abd El-Fattah

Summary: The study shows that polymorphisms near the IL-28B gene in the Egyptian population are associated with predicting the outcome of hepatitis C genotype 4 (HCV-GT4). Carriers of the CC genotype are more likely to resist HCV infection, clear the virus spontaneously, and achieve sustained virologic response under interferon treatment.

Genetic variants of NTCP gene and hepatitis B vaccine failure in Taiwanese children of hepatitis B e antigen positive mothers

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the HBV entry receptor sodium taurocholate co-transporting polypeptide (NTCP) and vaccine failure in children born to highly infectious mothers. The results showed that a specific genotype of the NTCP gene may be associated with a lower risk of HBV vaccine failure in these children, as well as earlier spontaneous HBeAg seroconversion.

Presence of interferon-λ, 4, male vender, absent/mild steatosis and low viral load augment antibody levels to hepatitis C virus

Jesper Waldenstrom, Kristoffer Hellstrand, Johan Westin, Staffan Nilsson, Peer Christensen, Martti Farkkila, Kristine Morch, Nina Langeland, Gunnar Norkrans, Martin Lagging

Summary: The study indicates that patients who can produce IFN-lambda 4, along with male gender, milder steatosis, and lower viral load, have higher levels of antibodies against HCV. This suggests that IFN-lambda 4 may be associated with Th2 immune skewing and could have clinical implications beyond HCV infection.

Impact of CYBA genotypes on severity and progression of multiple sclerosis

Summary: This study found that genetic variations within the CYBA gene, which affects the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), are associated with the severity and progression of multiple sclerosis (MS). Specifically, low-ROS alleles were linked to reduced MS severity and delayed onset of secondary progressive MS (SPMS). These findings suggest that targeting the NOX2 enzyme may be a potential therapeutic strategy to delay secondary progression in MS.

Summary: This study investigated the impact of repeated vaccination and hybrid immunity on antibody levels in immunosuppressed patients. The results showed that immunosuppressed patients achieved antibody levels comparable to controls after receiving three doses of the vaccine. Hybrid immunity resulted in approximately 10-fold higher antibody levels than vaccine-induced immunity alone in all study cohorts.
