Distribution of IL28B Genotypes in Iranian Patients with Chronic Hepatitis C and Healthy Individuals

Abstract

It seems that the impact of IL28B polymorphism on the spontaneous clearance of HCV genotype 1 is more prominent than HCV genotype 3 which results in the observation of higher rs12979860 C allele frequency in chronic hepatitis C patients with HCV genotype 3 than HCV genotype 1.
