Abstract excerpt

The mechanisms underlying the resolution of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection remain undetermined. Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) plays a pivotal role in host immune response to HBV, and the capacity for cytokine production in individuals has a major genetic component. The aim of this study was to examine whether TNF-alpha promotor polymorphisms are associated with the clearance of HBV infection. A total...
