Abstract excerpt

Genetic polymorphisms of interleukin-6 (IL-6) (-1363G>T, -597G>A, -572G>C, -174G>C, +2954G>C) may affect the outcomes of several diseases. This study was aimed to verify the role of these polymorphisms on the disease progression of patients with hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection and persistently normal transaminases (PNALT). A total of 121 PNALT patients did not receive any antiviral treatment but underwent...
