Abstract excerpt

In this study, the association between the risk of chronic hepatitis B virus infection and the polymorphisms within promoter regions of IFN-α1 and five genes was explored. This association study was performed on 180 Thai patients with chronic HBV infection [hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) = 65 and non-HCC = 115], 173 individuals with self-limited HBV infection and 140 healthy controls. Our results showed that the...
