Association of IL-10 (rs1800896) and TLR3 (rs1879026) polymorphism with progression of hcv-related liver disease and hepatocellular carcinoma in Egyptian patients
The IL-10 gene polymorphism may contribute to genetic susceptibility in Egyptian patients, increasing the risk of HCV-related cirrhosis and HCC progression, and this is the first report of testing the correlation between the IL-10 gene and the TLR3 polymorphism in disease progression among Egyptian HCV patients.
