The innate immune system in mammals defends against infection from viruses and other microbial infections. Unfortunately, the human immune response to the hepatitis B virus (HBV) is not yet fully ...

Background: The duration of protection after hepatitis B vaccination of infants is unknown. Methods: We determined antibody to hepatitis B surface antigen (anti-HBs) at 4-13 years of age in 363 low ...

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) reactivation may occur if someone has chronic HBV, prior exposure to HBV and is undergoing treatment, or a health condition that suppresses their immune system. The hepatitis B ...

Our immune system is divided into two main branches: innate and adaptive. Innate immune cells act as a first line of defense, quickly responding to invaders, while adaptive immune cells take a longer ...

A Singapore led study has shown that Hepatitis B Virus Infection (HBV) exposure increases the immune system maturation of infants, which may give a better survival advantage to counteract bacterial ...
