2017-04-12

Abstract excerpt

Background: The polymorphism rs58542926 C > T (E167K) in the gene of transmembrane 6 superfamily member 2 (TM6SF2) has been identified as a determinant of hepatic steatosis and fibrosis in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Only limited data have been published on this subject in chronic hepatitis C (CHC). Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of TM6SF2 rs58542926 polymorphism on the ri...
