摘要: Prolonged administration of nucleoside analogues for chronic hepatitis B may result in the emergence viral polymerase mutants. To gain insight into mechanism involved virus's resistance to famciclovir, amino acid sequences terminal protein and reverse-transcriptase (RT) domains were determined during therapy among 28 patients. The antiviral response was independent genotypes, non-response famciclovir associated with a complex variability RT domain. No mutation YMDD motif observed, whereas an L528M clearly selected by treatment 2 patients, as well 14 novel mutations 7 Clone sequence analysis patients undergoing retreatment andlor lamivudine showed selection preexisting drug-resistant mutant one case indicated that sequential allow rapid resistant strains.
