Occult HBV among anti-HBc + alone and not alone samples: mutation analysis of S Gene
Journal Title: Chinese Journal of Blood Transfusion - Year 2024, Vol 37, Issue 7
Abstract
Objective To investigate the status of occult hepatitis B virus infection(OBI) among blood donors in Quzhou, Zhejiang, and to analyze the mutation of S region in blood donors with anti-HBc+ alone and non anti-HBc+ alone. Methods The OBI samples were screened by ELISA and NAT; the HBV DNA was amplified and sequenced; 20 anti-HBc+ alone and 25 not anti-HBc+ alone samples were obtained. Results The detection rate of OBI in Quzhou was 0.10%(155/161 045), and the positive rate of anti-HBc was 74.19%(115/155). The detection rate of OBI increased with the age of blood donors(P<0.05), but was not related to gender. The positive rate of anti-HBc+ alone was 22.58%(35/155), and that of not anti-HBc alone was 51.61%(80/155). Among the 45 OBI sequencing samples, the proportion of B and C genotype was 73.33%(33/45) and 20.00%(9/45), respectively. The mutation sites of blood donors in the anti-HBc+ alone group were more than those in the not anti-HBc+ alone group, and the mutation rates of S114T and V168A on MHR were significantly different(P<0.05). Conclusion The genotype of OBI infection in Quzhou is mainly type B. The mutation sites of blood donors with anti-HBc+ alone are higher than those with not anti-HBc+ alone, which may be more suitable as one of the OBI screening indicators.
