Abstract excerpt

Host genetic variation may affect the outcome of chronic viral hepatitides, favoring viral clearance and/or modulating the inflammatory response to persistent infection. Our aims were to assess whether interleukin 6 (IL-6) promoter polymorphisms are associated with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV)...
