Journal ArticleDOI

Ground glass hepatocytes contain pre-S mutants and represent preneoplastic lesions in chronic hepatitis B virus infection.

TL;DR: GGH, particularly type II GGH, may represent the preneoplastic lesions of HBV‐related HCC and transgenic mice harboring pre‐S2 mutant plasmids have been shown to develop a dysplastic change of hepatocytes and HCC.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hepatitis B virus pre‐S2 mutant upregulates cyclin A expression and induces nodular proliferation of hepatocytes

TL;DR: In vitro and in vivo data support a role for ΔS2‐LHBs in the hepatocyte hyperplasia and a likely role in the process of HBV‐related tumorigenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Novel feedback inhibition of surface antigen synthesis by mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signal and its implication for hepatitis B virus tumorigenesis and therapy

TL;DR: The activation of mTOR signal in GGHs may feedback suppress HBsAg synthesis during HBV tumorigenesis and explain the observed decrease or absence ofHBsAg in HCC tissues.
