Whether resistant hepatitis B virus (HBV) strains are transmissible and can
lead to chronic infection remains to be studied. The aim of this study was
to investigate the clinical characteristics of patients with acute
hepatitis B caused by lamivudine (LAM)-resistant strains. Sera were
collected from 234 Chinese patients with acute hepatitis B. LAM-resistance
mutations were identified by direct polymerase chain reaction (PCR)
sequencing. LAM-resistant HBV variants were detected in 11 of the 234
(4.7%) patients. Among these patients, six harbored the rtM204I mutation,
two harbored the rtL180M + rtM204I mutations, one harbored the
rtM204I + rtM204V mutations, one harbored the rtL80I + rtM204I
mutations, and one harbored the rtV173L + rtL180M + rtM204V
mutations. Three patients were infected with genotype B HBV and eight
patients were infected with genotype C HBV. Two patients infected with
viruses with LAM-resistance mutations developed severe acute hepatitis. One
patient developed chronic hepatitis B. This patient was infected with
genotype C HBV that had LAM-resistance mutations (rtL180M + rtM204I).
The patient was diagnosed with an occult hepatitis B virus infection based
on the presence of HBV DNA in the liver and the absence of detectable
hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) in the serum. LAM-resistant HBV strains
in China are transmissible, can cause acute hepatitis B, and can even
progress to chronic infection in China. J. Med. Virol. 84:1558-1561, 2012.
