摘要: Sera from two groups of untreated HBsAG-positive patients with chronic active hepatitis on liver biopsy were tested for antibodies to cell membrane antigens (liver-specific protein, LSP; and antigen, LM-Ag). Among the 14 HBeAg-positive cases, seven (50%) positive anti-LSP, whereas only (13%) 15 anti-HBe-positive cases circulated this antibody. Liver autoantibody (LMA) was detected in sera delta-positive (1 HBeAg 1 anti-HBe positive). Anti-LSP-positive presented transaminase values significantly higher than those negative cases. Our data do not support hypothesis that a liver-specific autoimmune mechanism plays significant role immunopathogenesis necrosis type B. The relationship between hepatocyte anti-LSP antibody response is confirmed.
