Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection has a tendency to be chronic. The quasi species of HBV in the pre-S/S gene and mutations in enhancer II (EnhII)/core promoter (CP)/pre-C of HBV were studied in asymptomatic carrier (AsC) mothers and their children with different virus loads, to gain a better understanding of the pathogenic mechanisms of HBV.
