Detection of antibodies against pre-S1 proteins in sera of patients with hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection.

Abstract:

:Pre-S1 (large S) proteins are components of the envelope of HBV. The presence of pre-S1 proteins is correlated with viral replication. To test sera of patients with HBV infection for the presence of antibodies against pre-S1 proteins (anti-pre-S1), an E. coli extract containing a pre-S fusion protein covering the greater part of the pre-S1 region was subjected to Western blotting and probed with sera of patients. Anti-pre-S1 was present in the sera of all 4 patients with acute self-limited HBV infection and in the sera of 3 patients with a fulminant course. The antibodies could not be detected in the sera of 6 patients with acute HBV infection entering chronicity, in the sera from 10 HBsAg carriers or in the sera of 25 patients with chronic liver disease, positive for HBsAg and antibodies to hepatitis Delta virus. In an additional study, anti-pre-S1 could not be found in 11 sera from 12 patients with previous HBV infection, positive for anti-HBs and anti-HBc. Antibodies to pre-S1 proteins appear at the early stage of acute resolving HBV infection and seem to play a role in the elimination of the virus. The antibodies are absent in the sera of patients with acute HBV infection entering a chronic course and in the sera of chronic HBsAg-carriers.
