Abstract excerpt

Mannose binding lectin (MBL) is a pattern-recognition molecule of the innate immune system. The roles of MBL and its gene (mbl2) polymorphisms, -221X/Y and codon 54A/B, in hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection were investigated in this study. We recruited 320 nonprogressed hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) carriers; 199 progressed HBsAg carriers with hepatocellular carcinoma or cirrhosis; 87 spontaneously recovered...
