Interleukin-6-174 Promoter Polymorphism and Susceptibility to Hepatitis B Virus Infection as a Risk Factor for Hepatocellular Carcinoma in Iran.

Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention : APJCP - 1 Jan 2016

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is a major risk factor for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Cytokines play an important role in the regulation of immune responses and defense against viral infections. Human interleukin 6 (IL6) is a multifunctional cytokine that participates in these processes. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to assess the IL6-174 gene polymorphism in patients with chronic hepatitis B...
