Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND AIM: Transforming growth factor beta-1 (TGF-beta1) is one of the most dominant fibrogenic cytokines in hepatic fibrosis. The aim of the present study was to examine the effects of TGF-beta1 polymorphisms in Japanese patients with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and in healthy control subjects. METHODS: The TGF-beta1 genotypes at codon 10 and codon 25 were determined in 206 Japanese...
