2018-10-19

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> The myeloid-epithelial-reproductive tyrosine kinase (MERTK) is involved in hepatic steatosis, inflammation and liver fibrosis. Here we evaluated the association between the MERTK rs4374383 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and liver fibrosis progression in hepatitis C virus (HCV)-infected patients. <h4>Methods:</h4> We performed a retrospective study (repeated measures design) in 208 patie...
