Serum patterns of preS gene encoded proteins during the chronic phase of hepatitis B virus infection and their relationship with hepatitis B virus deoxyribonucleic acid and hepatitis B 'e' antigen were investigated. The results indicate that the presence of preS1 and/or preS2 antigens in serum does not correlate with circulating hepatitis B virus deoxyribonucleic acid and hepatitis B 'e' antigen. It is, therefore, suggested that preS antigens cannot be regarded as specific markers of active viral replication in chronically hepatitis B virus infected patients.
