Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The majority of patients with inherited haemochromatosis carry two mutant alleles of the recently discovered HFE gene. Individuals heterozygous for the HFE mutation could be predisposed to end-stage liver disease due to other causes. METHODS: The frequencies of the HFE gene mutations C282Y and H63D were determined in DNA samples obtained from 189 liver transplant patients and 225 healthy Finnish blood...
