The transparency of the embryo and the ease with which drugs can be introduced into the zebrafish are inherent advantages of the zebrafish model.

HBeAg could be useful marker for high risk of hepatocellular carcinoma in patients with chronic HBV infection, the authors believe.
Such high-risk patients would be candidates for antiviral-drug treatment and close monitoring for the development of liver diseases associated with chronic HBV infection. The group found that among men positive for HBsAg but negative for HBeAg, the level of HBV DNA was directly related to the risk of developing hepatocellular carcinoma.
Recent studies indicate that the risk for heptocellular carcinoma is particularly high among subjects positive for hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg).

 1 Z01 BC010297-07: Identification of Candidate Gene Polymorphisms Associated with Infectious Diseas
Infectious diseases, in addition to causing acute and sometimes chronic infections, are also a leading cause of many common cancers including gastric cancer, cervical cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, nasal pharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), Epstein Barr virus (EBV), and lymphoma.
The investigation of host genetic factors that modify HIV-1 and Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and disease progression or that may predispose to NPC or heptocellular carcinoma may lead to better understanding of host resistance and pathogenesis in response to common pathogens and may lead to targeted therapeutic interventions.
However, the role of host genetic factors in host resistance, chronic infection and pathogenesis leading to disease and/or malignancies is not well understood.

After several years, 20% of the cases develop hepatic cirrhosis; among these patients, there is a high incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma, which has been calculated to be 78%.
The severity of the infection is influenced, by viral factors (capacity to replicate and genotype), as well as the hosts own factors (individual’s immune system); this same combination of factors is what determines the degree of response to the treatment.
In its acute phase, the hepatitis causes a moderate symptomatology and can progress into a chronic hepatitis.
