Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Upregulation of interleukin-8 by the hepatitis C virus non-structural-5A-protein leads to inhibition of the antiviral activity of interferon-alpha in vitro. The clinical significance of interleukin-8 levels for virologic response to interferon-alpha-based treatment in patients with chronic hepatitis C is unknown. METHODS: We investigated serum interleukin-8 in 59 healthy controls and 214 patients...
