Abstract:
: Infections with hepatitis B virus (HBV) may lead to a distinct clinical outcome which is partially related to host genetic variability. Our aim was to investigate the relationships between the polymorphisms of the E-selectin gene and disease progression in a HBV-infected Chinese Han population, and also to determine the plasma soluble E-selectin (sE-selectin) levels in this population. : Genomic DNA was extracted from the peripheral blood of 367 HBV carriers and 281 healthy controls. Two polymorphisms ( : The frequency of the C allele (AC or CC) of the : This is the first report describing the association between E-selectin polymorphisms and HBV-related chronic liver diseases. Our data suggest that the Clin Chem Lab Med 2009;47:159–64.
