The Association of Il28b Genotype with the Histological Features of Chronic Hepatitis C Is HCV Genotype Dependent
The interleukin 28B (IL28B) rs12979860 polymorphism is associated with treatment outcome in hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1 and 4 patients. Its association with the histological features of chronic hepatitis C and disease severity needs further clarifications. To assess the correlation between IL...
