Association Analysis of Genetic Variants of Sodium Taurocholate Co-Transporting Polypeptide NTCP Gene (SLC10A1) and HBV Infection Status in a Cohort of Egyptian Patients
2021-07-26
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the SLC10A1 gene, coding for a functional receptor of hepatitis B virus (HBV), sodium taurocholate co-transporting polypeptide (NTCP), may influence the susceptibility, the outcome, and disease course of HBV infection in some populations. <h4>Aim:</h4> to determine the prevalence of SNPs of NTCP gene, rs2296651 and rs943277, and their relationship wit...
