Increased KCNJ15 expression has been found in patients with hepatitis B virus (HBV)-induced Acute-on-chronic liver failure(HBV-ACLF) in our previous gene microarray study. However,the mechanism underlying the enhanced expression of KCNJ15 in patients with HBV-ACLF remains *** this study,we further investigate the up-regulated KCNJ15 and its possible regulatory mechanisms in HBV induced liver *** expression of KCNJ15 was studied in patients with HBV-ACLF on both mRNA and protein levels in peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMC) and liver tissue,while the function of KCNJ15 was further determined in Jurkat cells in vitro by transfection of a human KCNJ15 expression *** results showed that KCNJ15 was over-expressed on PBMCs and hepatic infiltrating lymphocytes from HBV-ACLF ***,KCNJ15 had an abundant expression in peripheral and hepatic CD4T cells in patients with *** the supernatant of KCNJ15 over-expressed Jurkat cells,increased IL-17A secretion was observed,which was involved with elevated intracellular calcium *** data suggested KCNJ15 may contribute to liver injury through IL-17A production in HBV induced liver ***,we also provide a potential susceptible gene for patients with HBV-ACLF.

Background and aims Hepatitis B related acute-on-chronic liver failure(HBV-ACLF) has a poor prognosis with very high *** in nucleoside analogues treated patients with HBV-ACLF is *** study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Entecavir, Lamivudine and Telbivudine in treating patients with HBV-ACLF and to validate TPPM model in these patients. Methods In this retrospective study,we enrolled 283 patients with HBV-ACLF(100 treated with Entecavir,98 treated with Lamivudine and 85 treated with Telbivudine).There were no significant differences in baseline clinical and virological characteristics between patients treated with Entecavir,Telbivudine or Lamivudine. Results There were no significant differences in the 4 and 12-week survival rates of Entecavir, Telbivudine and Lamivudine-treated patients(79.00%,81.18%,and 86.73%,respectively at 4 weeks and 67.00%,65.88%,and 73.47%,respectively at 12 weeks).Patients in all three groups achieved an improvement of MELD *** the Hosmor and Lemeshow test,the validation of TPPM for HBV-ACLF demonstrated a good degree of fit with disease *** on this unique group of patients,the TPPM with an AUC of 0.787 was superior to MELD which had an AUC of 0.736 in the prediction of 12-weeks *** had an AUC of 0.733 and MELD had an AUC of 0.672 in the prediction of 4-weeks *** a cutoff of 0.22 for 12-weeks mortality prediction by TPPM,the positive predictive value was 49.66%,with a negative predictive value of 89.55%. Conclusion Nucleotide analogs including Entecavir,Lamivudine and Telbivudine treatment prevented disease progression and increased the survival of patients with *** of the established TPPM scoring system in this study confirmed its superior predictive value for HBV-ACLF patients when compared with MELD.

Objective Patients who have not obtained the effective suppression of hepatitis B virus(HBV) replication cannot have an improvement in liver *** aimed to explore the differences of several rescue therapy for patients with resistance to lamivudine plus adefovir. Methods A total of 101 patients(male 87) who had not obtained viral response by lamivudine plusadefovirfor more than two years from January 2005 to January 2011 were included in this study, including virological breakthrough 62 cases and partial response 39 *** DNAbefore rescue therapy was 3.72±1.24 log10 IU/*** therapy:(A) lamivudine 100mg + adefovir 20mg(27 cases);(B) entecavir 0.5mg + adefovir 10/20mg(50 cases);(C) entecavir 0.5mg + tenofovir 300mg (11 cases);(D) pegylated-interferon or interferon(13 cases).Alanine aminotransferase(ALT),HBV DNA,HBV markers,and creatinine were detected every 3 *** period of rescue therapy was 12(9-18) months. Results The proportion of virological response in A,B,C,and D was 81.4%,86%,100%,and 30.7%, *** rate of HBeAg seroconversion was 2.9%.In patients with virological response,the rate of biochemistry response was 80.4%(70/87).In 10 cases with entecavir 0.5mg + adefovir 20mg who did not obtain virological response by entecavir 0.5mg + adefovir 10mg,seven cases obtained virological *** 60 patients with adefovir 20 mg,only one patient had occurred evaluation of creatinine at the time point of a follow-up of 24 months. Conclusions The combination of entecavir plus tenofovir is the prefer strategy of rescue therapy for HBeAg-positive chronic hepatitis B with resistance to lamivudine plus *** strategy of adefovir 20 mg is considerable for its safe and *** strategy of interferon is not suitable for its poor response.
