Abstract BACKGROUND: Occult HBV infection (OBI) is of great concern due to their complicated diagnosis and potential for public transmission. OBJECTIVE: The study aimed to determine the clinical prevalence of OBI and if viral immune escape-associated mutations contribute to the occurrence of OBI. STUDY DESIGN: A total of 91,037 HBV-infected patients with different related illnesses who were admitted to the Fifth Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital from January 2005 to December 2017 were tested for OBI. Serum samples from 62 patients with OBI manifestations (OBI patients) and 124 matched non-OBI patients were sequenced for possible immune escape-associated mutations within the major hydrophilic region of HBV S protein. HBsAg and HBV DNA levels in representative viral strains were measured. RESULTS: Of the 91,037 tested patients, 487 (0.53 %) were negative for HBsAg but positive for HBV DNA and were defined as OBI patients. The prevalence in different illness categories varied. Immune escape-associated mutations were more frequently detected in OBI patients than in non-OBI patients (59.68 % vs. 35.48 %, P < 0.01), as did the coexistence of multiple mutations (43.55 % vs. 22.58 %, P < 0.01). Specifically, the prevalence rates of sT118 K, sK122R, and sV168A were increased in OBI patients. Strains with sK122R mutants (sK122R, sK122R + D144E, sK122R + C121R + D144E, and sK122R + F134L + D144E) from a follow-up OBI patient all showed significantly lower levels of HBsAg production than a wild-type strain. CONCLUSIONS: The study clarified the clinical prevalence of OBI, verified the influence of immune escape-associated mutations, and identified the role of the sK122R mutation in multiple OBI patients.

Note
Basic Characteristics of Mutations
  • Mutation Site: The specific location in a gene or protein sequence where a change occurs.
  • Mutation Level: The level at which a mutation occurs, including the nucleotide or amino acid level.
  • Mutation Type: The nature of the mutation, such as missense mutation, nonsense mutation, synonymous mutation, etc.
  • Gene/Protein/Region: Refers to the specific region of the virus where the mutation occurs. Including viral genes, viral proteins, or a specific viral genome region. If the article does not specifically indicate the relationship between the mutation and its correspondence, the main
  • Gene/Protein/Region studied in the article is marked.
  • Genotype/Subtype: Refers to the viral genotype or subtype where the mutation occurs. If the article does not specifically indicate the relationship between the mutation and its correspondence, the main Genotype/Subtype studied in the article is marked.
  • Viral Reference: Refers to the standard virus strain used to compare and analyze viral sequences.
Functional Impact and Mechanisms
  • Disease: An abnormal physiological state with specific symptoms and signs caused by viral infection.
  • Immune: The article focuses on the study of mutations and immune.
  • Target Gene: Host genes that viral mutations may affect.
Clinical and Epidemiological Correlations
