Notably, the frequency of the G1896A mutation in the HBeAg-negative child patients was significantly lower than in the HBeAg-negative adult patients (41.1% vs 91.7%, P < 0.001), and similar results were also observed for other BCP/precore mutations such as A1846T (17.8% vs 37.5%, P = 0.010) and the G1899A substitution (7.8% vs 20.8%, P = 0.026). |

Abstract
|
To describe the Hepatitis B e antigen(HBeAg) seroconversion related mutation profiles of the basal core promoter(BCP)/precore regions in e antigen seroconverted child patients, a cohort of 245 child patients with CHB and a control patients group of 92 adult patients with CHB were recruited. The mutation frequencies of six nucleotides or nucleotide combinations including nucleotide (nt)1896, nt1762/1764, nt1752, nt1846, nt1899 and nt1753 showed significant differences between HBeAg positive and HBeAg-negative child patients groups. The frequencies of these HBeAg seroconversion-related mutations were significantly lower in HBeAg-negative children with CHB than in HBeAg-negative adults with CHB, especially for the mutation G1896A (41.1% vs 91.7%, P<0.001), and the average number of BCP/precore region mutations in samples from HBeAg-negative child patients was also obviously lower than in HBeAg-negative adult patients(3.62+/-3.03 vs 4.89+/-2.09, P<0.001), suggesting less impact of mutations in the BCP/precore region on HBeAg seroconversion in child patients than adult patients.
