Inflammasome genes polymorphisms may influence the development of hepatitis C in the Amazonas, Brazil.
Hepatitis C is considered a major public health problem caused by the hepatitis C virus (HCV). Viral infections are known to induce production of IL1β through the signaling pathway of inflammasomes. Emerging evidences suggest that Inflammasome genes may influence the immune response against HCV as t...
