Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels and interleukin 28B (IL28B) polymorphism are associated with sustained viral response (SVR) to peginterferon/ribavirin (pegIFN/RBV) for chronic hepatitis C (CHC) infection. IL28B has been linked with LDL-C ...
In 2009, a correlated set of polymorphisms in the region of the interleukin-28B (IL28B) gene were associated with clearance of genotype 1 hepatitis C virus (HCV) in patients treated with pegylated interferon-alfa and ribavirin. The same polymorphisms were ...
Hepatitis E virus (HEV) is among the major causes of acute viral hepatitis worldwide. In developing countries, HEV infections are caused by genotypes 1 and 2, due to consumption of contaminated water. Large and recurrent outbreaks of HEV occur in specific ...
Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the IL28B and PNPLA3 gene regions have been associated with hepatic steatosis in genotype 1 (G1) chronic HCV infection but their clinical impacts remain to be determined. ...
Nicotine is an important stimulant that is involved in modulating many neuronal processes, including those related to vision. Nicotine is also thought to play a key role in schizophrenia: A genetic variation of the cholinergic nicotine receptor gene, alpha ...
Hepatitis E is among the major causes of acute viral hepatitis worldwide. Infections occurring in industrialized countries are caused by zoonotic genotypes 3 and 4, mostly due to the consumption of raw meat products such as pork liver, wild boar and deer m ...
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Rapid expansion of genomic technologies has resulted in an unprecedented ability to interrogate the impact of human genetic variation on disease. HIV-1 infection is a unique model for studying this impact because host genetic variation i ...
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) nonstructural protein 3-4A (NS3-4A) is a complex composed of NS3 and its cofactor NS4A. It harbours serine protease as well as NTPase/RNA helicase activities and is essential for viral polyprotein processing, RNA replication and vir ...
Genetic variation occurring at the level of regulatory sequences can affect phenotypes and fitness in natural populations. This variation can be analysed in a population genetic framework to study how genetic drift and selection affect the evolution of the ...
The identification of associations between IL28B variants and spontaneous clearance of hepatitis C virus (HCV) raises the issues of causality and of the net contribution of host genetics to the trait. To estimate more precisely the net effect of IL28B gene ...
