Association of Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha (TNF-α)-1031 Polymorphism with Chronic Infection of Patients with HCV
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Infection with the hepatitis C virus (HCV) is leading cause of chronic liver disease. Cytokines play a key role in the modulation of immune response. Different single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in TNF-Alpha promoter region have been identified. The aim of this study wa...
