Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND/AIM: Whether mutations in the putative haemochromatosis gene (HFE) and hepatitis C virus act independently to precipitate porphyria cutanea tarda is unknown. The aim of the study was to investigate the relationship between mutations in HFE, hepatitis C and porphyria cutanea tarda. METHODS: The frequencies of the C282Y and H63D mutations in HFE were determined in 27 patients with porphyria cutanea tarda...
