APOB codon 4311 polymorphism is associated with hepatitis C virus infection through altered lipid metabolism

Abstract Background It has been reported that some single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in lipid regulators such as apolipoproteins and cell surface molecules for hepatitis C virus (HCV) entry into hepatocytes are associated with HCV infection. However, it is unknown how HCV infection is affected...
