Impact of <i>IL10</i>, <i>MTP</i>, <i>SOD2</i>, and <i>APOE</i> Gene Polymorphisms on the Severity of Liver Fibrosis Induced by HCV Genotype 4

Complications of hepatitis C virus (HCV) chronic infection cause ~400,000 deaths worldwide annually. One complication, liver fibrosis, is influenced by host genetic factors. Genes influencing fibrosis include immune, metabolic, oxidative stress, and viral entry genes, such as interleukin 10 (<i&g...
