Host genetic factors and vaccine-induced immunity to HBV infection: haplotype analysis.

Host genetic factors and vaccine-induced immunity to HBV infection: haplotype analysis.

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection remains a significant health burden world-wide, although vaccines help decrease this problem. We previously identified associations of single nucleotide polymorphisms in several candidate genes with vaccine-induced peak antibody level (anti-HBs), which is predictive...
