Abstract Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) has been regarded as the most potent drug for treating patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB). However recently, viral mutations associated with tenofovir have been reported. Here, we found a CHB patient with suboptimal response after more than 4 years of TDF treatment. Clonal analysis of hepatitis B virus (HBV) isolated from sequential sera of this patient identified the seven previously reported TDF-resistant mutations (CYELMVI). Interestingly, a threonine to alanine mutation at the 301 amino acid position of the reverse-transcriptase (RT) domain, (rtT301A), was commonly accompanied with CYELMVI at a high rate (72.7%). Since the rtT301A mutation has not been reported yet, we investigated the role of this naturally occurring mutation on the viral replication and susceptibility to tenofovir in various liver cells (hepatoma cells as well as primary human hepatocytes). A cell-based phenotypic assay revealed that the rtT301A mutation dramatically impaired the replication ability with meaningful reduction in sensitivity to tenofovir in hepatoma cell lines. However, attenuated viral replication by the rtT301A mutation was significantly restored in primary human hepatocytes (PHHs). Our findings suggest that the replication capability and drug sensitivity of HBV is different between hepatoma cell lines and PHHs. Therefore, our study emphasizes that validation studies should be performed not only in the liver cancer cell lines but also in the PHHs to understand the exact viral fitness under antiviral pressure in 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
