Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: The mechanisms of immune tolerance to hepatitis B virus (HBV) in children infected perinatally or early in infancy still remain unclarified. We aimed to study the genetic variants of immune factors implicated in viral-host interaction in children who were born to HBV-positive mothers and who had different clinical outcome. METHODS: Mannose-binding lectin gene (mbl2) codon 54, codon 57, and promoter 221...
