BACKGROUND/AIMS Sustained virologic response (SVR) for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C (CHC) may differ with ethnicity due to differences in genetic traits. This study evaluated the efficacy of peginterferon and ribavirin, and the association between IL28B genotypes and the treatment efficacy in Korean CHC patients. METHODS This was a retrospective cohort study using data from medical re...
Background & Objective: Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) is one of the important risk factors for liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. Some of the host genetic factors such as interleukin 28B (IL-28B) may influence the response to the antiviral therapy. IL28B is a member of the interferon (IFN) family which causes an antiviral response. Previous studies indicated that rs12979860 polymorphisms o...
BACKGROUND AND RATIONALE Age is one of the predictors for sustained virological response (SVR) when treating chronic hepatitis C (CHC) patients with pegylated-interferon/ribavirin (PegIFN/RBV). However, the treatment responses of the young patients had not been analyzed before. Therefore, we conducted this study to investigate the treatment responses of CHC patients younger than 40 years old (y...
BACKGROUND The Interleukin 28B (IL28B) rs12979860 polymorphisms was recently reported to be associated with the human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) proviral load (PvL) and the development of the HTLV-1-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP). METHODS In an attempt to examine this hypothesis, we assessed the association of the rs12979860 genotypes with HTLV-1 PvL l...
At the beginning of the third millennium, Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection continues to be a major health hazard, with 170 million chronically infected people worldwide (1). Recent research has found that the prevalence of HCV infection in Iran is 1% and 0.1% in males and females, respectively (2). Although a combination of pegylated interferon (PEG-IFN) and ribavirin (RBV) has been establishe...
INTRODUCTION Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with hepatitis C virus (HCV) clearance were identified near the IL28B gene. Coinfection by the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) influences the course of HCV contributing to liver damage. Nevertheless, little is known about the relationship between these SNPs and HCV/HIV coinfection. Our aim was to estimate the frequencies of the a...
BACKGROUND AIMS The clinical relevance of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) near the IL28B gene is controversial in patients with hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. This study aimed to investigate the role of viral and host factors, including IL28B genotypes, in the natural course of chronic hepatitis B (CHB). METHODS The study enrolled consecutive 115 treatment-naive CHB patients. HBV v...
BACKGROUND Chemokines/cytokines play important roles in the pathogenesis of chronic hepatitis C (CHC). However, their clinical characteristics and implications in treatment responses to pegylated interferon plus ribavirin treatment (PegIFN/RBV) have not been fully illustrated yet. In this study, we intended to investigate the possible predictability of serum chemokines/cytokines on the treatmen...
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the epidermal growth factor (EGF, rs4444903), patatin-like phospholipase domain-containing protein 3 (PNPLA3, rs738409) genes, and near the interleukin-28B (IL28B, rs12979860) gene are linked to treatment response, fibrosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in chronic hepatitis C. Whether these SNPs independently or in combination predict clinical det...
