[Association between IFN-gamma+874 polymorphisms and the clinical outcomes of hepatitis B and/or hepatitis C virus infection.].

Abstract

These results suggested that polymorphisms in the IFN-gamma+874 had some influence on chronic HCV and/or HBV infection, and on the outcome of HCV and/or HBV infections. IFN-gamma+874 AA genotype and T allele were possible risk to chronic HBV and/or HCV infections and to the outcomes of HBV and/or HCV infection. However, IFN-gamma+874 TA genotype might serve as possible protective factors to them.
