IL28B gene polymorphisms and US liver fatty changes in patients who spontaneously cleared hepatitis C virus infection.

IL28B gene polymorphisms and US liver fatty changes in patients who spontaneously cleared hepatitis C virus infection.

BACKGROUND:Recent clinical studies have shown that the presence of CC genotype in the rs12979860 region of IL28B gene is associated with an increase in the probability of spontaneous clearance of hepatitis C virus (HCV). Moreover, IL28B polymorphism seems to influence the probability of developing l...
