Abstract excerpt
Host genetic factors could play a primary role in determining the risk for cirrhosis development in chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV)-infected patients. We designed this work to study the effect of single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in Toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3) and interferon regulatory factor...
