Role of Host Genetic Factors in the Outcome of Hepatitis C Virus Infection

Role of Host Genetic Factors in the Outcome of Hepatitis C Virus Infection

The natural history of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is determined by a complex interplay between host genetic, immunological and viral factors. This review highlights genes involved in innate and adaptive immune responses associated with different outcomes of HCV infection. For example, an asso...
