Abstract excerpt

INTRODUCTION: Mannose-binding lectin (MBL) is involved in host's response to several infections including hepatitis B but little is known about MBL and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. The present study attempts to investigate whether MBL2 genotype and serum MBL levels affect the course of HCV infection. RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS: We investigated the variant alleles in MBL2 gene promoter and exon-1 regions in 80...
