Table 304-1 Nomenclature and Features of Hepatitis Viruses
Hepatitis TypeVirus Particle, nmMorphologyGenome*ClassificationAntigen(s)AntibodiesRemarks
HAV27Icosahedral nonenveloped7.5-kb RNA, linear, ss, +HepatovirusHAVAnti-HAVEarly fecal sheddingDiagnosis: IgM anti-HAVPrevious infection: IgG anti-HAV
HBV42Double-shelled virion (surface and core) spherical3.2-kb DNA, circular, ss/dsHepadnavirusHBsAgHBcAgHBeAgAnti-HBsAnti-HBcAnti-HBeBloodborne virus; carrier stateAcute diagnosis: HBsAg, IgM anti-HBcChronic diagnosis: IgG anti-HBc, HBsAgMarkers of replication: HBeAg, HBV DNALiver, lymphocytes, other organs
27Nucleocapsid coreHBcAgHBeAgAnti-HBcAnti-HBeNucleocapsid contains DNA and DNA polymerase; present in hepatocyte nucleus; HBcAg does not circulate; HBeAg (soluble, nonparticulate) and HBV DNA circulatecorrelate with infectivity and complete virions
22Spherical and filamentous; represents excess virus coat materialHBsAgAnti-HBsHBsAg detectable in >95% of patients with acute hepatitis B; found in serum, body fluids, hepatocyte cytoplasm; anti-HBs appears following infectionprotective antibody
HCVApprox. 4060Enveloped9.4-kb RNA, linear, ss, +HepacivirusHCVC100-3C33cC22-3NS5Anti-HCVBloodborne agent, formerly labeled non-A, non-B hepatitisAcute diagnosis: anti-HCV (C33c, C22-3, NS5), HCV RNAChronic diagnosis: anti-HCV (C100-3, C33c, C22-3, NS5) and HCV RNA; cytoplasmic location in hepatocytes
HDV3537Enveloped hybrid particle with HBsAg coat and HDV core1.7-kb RNA, circular, ss, Resembles viroids and plant satellite virusesHBsAgHDV antigenAnti-HBsAnti-HDVDefective RNA virus, requires helper function of HBV (hepadnaviruses); HDV antigen present in hepatocyte nucleusDiagnosis: anti-HDV, HDV RNA; HBV/HDV coinfectionIgM anti-HBc and anti-HDV; HDV superinfectionIgG anti-HBc and anti-HDV
HEV3234Nonenveloped icosahedral7.6-kb RNA, linear, ss, +HepevirusHEV antigenAnti-HEVAgent of enterically transmitted hepatitis; rare in USA; occurs in Asia, Mediterranean countries, Central AmericaDiagnosis: IgM/IgG anti-HEV (assays not routinely available); virus in stool, bile, hepatocyte cytoplasm
