CTLA-4 haplotype predicts HBsAg and HBcrAg levels and HBeAg seroconversion age in children with chronic HBV infection

CTLA-4 haplotype predicts HBsAg and HBcrAg levels and HBeAg seroconversion age in children with chronic HBV infection

Background & Aim: Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (CTLA-4) attenuates cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) activation. This study was performed to examine the relationships between CTLA-4 genotypes/haplotypes, hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), and hepatitis B core-related antigen (HBc...
