## Abstract Hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1a is rare in Japanese patients and the clinical characteristics of this genotype remain unclear. The interferon (IFN) sensitivityβdetermining region (ISDR) and singleβnucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of interleukinβ28B (IL28B) among patients with HCV gen
We read with great interest the recent report by Li et al. 1 analyzing the correlation between the clusters of differentiation 24 (CD24) polymorphism and risk of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. In their study, the CD24 P170 T allele (thymidine at position 170) was correlated with a strong
Up to 30% of liver transplants will develop graft cirrhosis within 5 years after liver transplantation (LT) due to recurrent HCV-infection forwarding accelerated graft damage. Genetic variants of cytokines involved in the immune response may contribute to the degree of graft inflammation, fibrosis p
