Genomics and proteomics have become increasingly important in biomedical science in the
past decade, as they provide an opportunity for hypothesis-free experiments that can yield …

In this study, we developed lateral flow assay (LFA) biosensors for the detection of hepatitis
B surface antigens using well-controlled gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). To enhance …

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a major cause of liver disease but the full impact of HCV infection
on the hepatocyte is poorly understood. RNA sequencing (RNA‐Seq) is a novel method to …

Liver infection with hepatitis B virus (HBV), a DNA virus of the Hepadnaviridae family, leads
to severe disease, such as fibrosis, cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. The early steps …

The development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) can be considered as an end-stage
outcome of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. Early prognostic markers are needed to …

Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is the primary causative agent of postweaning
multisystemic wasting syndrome, which is an emerging swine immunosuppressive disease …

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) has devastated the pig industry
worldwide for almost 25 years, and its virus (PRRSV) preferentially infects and replicates in …

Chronic hepatitis B (CHB) appears to progress more rapidly in males than in females, and
CHB-related hepatic cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma are predominately diseases …

Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) has been identified as the essential causal agent of
postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome, which has spread worldwide. Monocyte …

The x protein of HBV (HBx) has been involved in the development of hepatocellular
carcinoma (HCC), with a possible link to individual genotypes. Nevertheless, the underlying …
