Abstract

The prevalence of hepatitis B infection in Indonesia is still alarming, while its therapies cannot eradicate the virus and only aim for long term viral suppression. HBsAg quantification has become an emphasis on researches, regarding its capacity to identify the natural history of hepatitis B virus infection and predict the outcome of therapies. This review aims to determine the clinical role of HBsAg in chronic hepatitis B infection by reviewing textbooks, journal articles, and review articles without language restriction. This review finds that HBsAg is capable of predicting degrees of liver fibrosis severity in patients with chronic hepatitis B infection. Furthermore, HBsAg quantification can be used to distinguish inactive carriers from patients with HBeAg-negative chronic hepatitis B. The decrease of HBsAg is a good predictor of HBsAg loss, and it denotes discontinuation of nucleoside/nucleotide analog therapy. HBsAg quantification is also used in combined PEG-IFN and nucleoside/nucleotide analog therapy. Nevertheless, this role is still controversial. Additionally, HBsAg cannot replace the major roles of HBV DNA measurement in therapy management. Using either HBsAg or HBV DNA in therapy algorithm decreases its predictive value, hence recommendation to use both. In identifying patients with occult hepatitis B infection (OBI), HBV DNA still cannot be replaced by HBsAg quantification. Furthermore, HBsAg quantification may not be a good predictor of hepatocellular carcinoma in patients with OBI. Future studies are expected to demonstrate the role of HBsAg in current hepatitis B therapy and also future therapies.

Abstract

Introduction: Liver cirrhosis is the end stage of chronic liver disease. The morbidity and mortality associated with complications of liver cirrhosis are very high. In cases of death caused by cirrhosis of the liver, it tends to increase from around 676,000 in 1980 to more than one million in 2010, globally equivalent to 2% of all mortality in the world (Mokdad et al., 2014). The mortality rate increases if there are complications such as ascites, hepatic encephalopathy, esophageal varices, and liver cancer, with success rates of 20-60%, 50%, 70-90% (D'Amico, 2014). In liver cirrhosis with esophageal varices, it is reported that patients with mild and severe liver cirrhosis risk 40% and 85% for varicose veins. So, this research is to determine the correlation between the severity of liver cirrhosis with esophageal varices in Dr. Soetomo General Hospital Surabaya. Methods: This study was an analytic observational with a cross-sectional study design. The research subjects used in this study were patients diagnosed with liver cirrhosis with esophageal varices from January 2015 - December 2016. Data were collected from medical records and analyzed using the spearman correlation test. Sampling was carried out in total sampling. Results: Of 26 subjects, most of the subjects were men (69.32%), the highest severity of liver cirrhosis from the Child B group (53.85%), and the highest esophageal varices were grade II and III (46,15%). The most results from each group based on the severity of liver cirrhosis were Child A with grade II esophageal varices (66.7%), and Child B with grade II esophageal varices (64.3%), and Child C with esophageal varices grade III esophagus (88.9%). A correlation coefficient was obtained at 0.659 (p <0.005). Conclusion: This research concludes a significant correlation between the severity of liver cirrhosis and esophageal varices.

Abstract

Polymorphisms in TNF-α gene promoter region are known of its role in the production of TNF-α which may influences the pathogenesis of liver disease. SNPs in positions 238 and 308 of TNF-α gene promoters may affect the production of these cytokines. This study was aimed to detect Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) on -238 and -308 positions in the TNF-α gene promoter among liver cirrhosis patients with HBV infection in Surabaya, Indonesia. This was descriptive exploratory research with cross sectional study design using serum liver cirrhosis patients with HBV infection in Endoscopy Outpatient Clinic Dr. Soetomo General Hospital, Surabaya from April-May 2017. SNPs at -238 and -308 on TNF-α gene promoter (rs361525 and rs1800629 respectively) were detected using Polymerase Chain Reaction-Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) with primers specific for the TNF-α promoter region and restriction enzymes NcoI and MspI. The genotypes of TNF-α gene promoter were assessed according to the length of the fragments produced in RFLP. Serum TNF-α levels was measured by commercial ELISA. In this study, as much as 149 positive HBsAg patients was found in Endoscopy Outpatient Clinic, Dr. Soetomo General Hospital, Surabaya. From those amount, as much as 30 liver cirrhosis patients with positive HBsAg were obtained. From 2/30 (6.7%) patients showed the GA heterozygote SNP either position -238 or -308. No patient had the AA genotype. Median blood TNF-α level in women (38 ng / L) was higher than in men (33 ng / L). TNF-α levels in patients with GA heterozygote genotype at -238 and -308 in this research was not different than wild-type (GG genotype). Among patients with liver cirrhosis due to chronic HBV infection in Surabaya, Indonesia, Surabaya, we found GA polymorphisms the TNF-α promoter gene at positions -238 and -308 in 6.7% patients, and did not find homozygous AA polymorphisms. Further studies including larger numbers of patients from various ethnic backgrounds in Indonesia are needed to provide robust data on TNF-α gene promoter polymorphisms and their role in the pathogenesis of liver cirrhosis with HBV infection in this country.
