Abstract:
Objective To investigate 1762T、1764A double position mutation in the Basic Core Promoter(BCP) of hepatitis B virus and reveal its relation to clinical symptoms and HBeAg phenotype. Methods microplate sandwich hybridization technique was used to detect BCP double position mutation. One common capture probe and one mutant specific detector probe as well as one wild type detector probe were synthesized and hybridized with amplified HBV DNA from the sera of hepatitis B patients. The results of hybridization were exhibited with ELISA. Results 147 hepatitis B patients who had been confirmed HBV DNA positive were screened. 51 patients were BCP double position mutation, 42 of which were BCP single position mutation and, 9 were mix mutation(both mutation and wild type were positive). BCP mutant was detected in 36 of 117 with chronic hepatitis and, 8 of which were mix mutants. Moreover, BCP mutant was detected in 7 of 30 with acute hepatitis in 25 of 78 with HBeAg positive were mutant and in 26 of 65 with HBeAg negative were mutant.Conclusions (1) The rate of BCP double position mutation in chronic hepatitis B patients is higher than that in acute hepatitis B patients. (2) BCP mutation may impair HBeAg expression. (3) PCR microplate sandwich hybridization ELISA is a sensitive and efficient method for detecting gene mutations.
