Hepatitis B Surface Antigen-Specific Immune Response (Anti-HBs)

Target
Anti-HBs
Molecular classification
Immune Response
01

Overview

The hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) is a multifunctional glycoprotein and the major antigen of the hepatitis B virus (HBV) envelope. It plays a central role in eliciting both humoral and cellular immune responses during HBV infection. The immune response specifically targeting HBsAg is critical for viral clearance, protection against reinfection, and forms the basis for effective vaccination strategies.
