Abstract excerpt
Genetic variation and genotype of Hepatitis B virus (HBV) are related to the efficiency of interferon alpha (IFN-α)-based antiviral therapy. However, the correlation of variation in interferon-stimulated response element (ISRE) and HBV genotype response to IFN-α therapy remains elusive.Differences of ISRE between genotype B and C HBV were explored using the HBV sequences retrieved from GenBank, and further...
