| Core Tip |
Two molecules may function as hepatitis C virus (HCV) receptors, namely the low density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) and CD81. This work asse-ssed the role of genetic polymorphisms of the LDLR in Egyptian chronic HCV patients and its cor-relation with antiviral responses to treatment with pegylated interferon /ribavirin therapy. The study demonstrated that LDLR gene polymorphisms play a role in the response to viral treatment. The G allele of LDLRs exon8c.1171G>A predominated in cases and controls over the A allele. Carriers of the A allele exhibited a 16.4 times greater risk for non-response. |
