IL28B Genotype Is Associated With Differential Expression of Intrahepatic Interferon-Stimulated Genes in Patients With Chronic Hepatitis C
22 Aug 2010
Abstract excerpt
UNLABELLED: Genetic variation in the IL28B (interleukin 28B; interferon lambda 3) region has been associated with sustained virological response (SVR) rates in patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC) who were treated with peginterferon-α and ribavirin. We hypothesized that IL28B polymorphism is associated with intrahepatic expression of interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs), known to influence treatment outcome....
