Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Recent studies have suggested that the course of chronic hepatitis C may be influenced by the immunogenetic background of the host. Specifically, HLA-DR11 (5) has been associated with less advanced hepatitis C virus (HCV)-related liver disease. The aim of the present study was to...
