Association of Genetic Polymorphisms of Chemokines and their Receptors with clearance or persistence of hepatitis C virus infection.

CONCLUSIONS: Susceptibility to HCV infection is associated with A alleles of both (rs743660 and rs1799864 G/A) of CCR2 while spontaneous clearance of HCV is associated with the C allele of rs13900 of CCL2 and T allele of rs3817655 of CCL5. PMID: 30175654 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
