Abstract excerpt

Sodium taurocholate cotransporting polypeptide (NTCP) is a functional receptor for hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. NTCP rs2296651 is believed to be an Asian-specific variant responsible for HBV susceptibility. We investigated the relationship between rs2296651 and HBV infection in Taiwan based on stratification by gender and menopausal status. We recruited 10 017 Taiwan Biobank participants aged 30-70 years...
