Vitamin D serum levels seems to influence antiviral therapy in chronic hepatitis C (CHC). Vitamin D pathway is controlled by genes presenting functional single nucleotide polymorphysms (SNPs): The aim of this study was to evaluated if the carriage of different SNPs of these genes could influence the rate of sustained virologic response in CHC patients treated with interferon and ribavirin.

Abstract

Vitamin D serum levels seems to influence antiviral therapy in chronic hepatitis C (CHC). Vitamin D pathway is controlled by genes presenting functional single nucleotide polymorphysms (SNPs): The aim of this study was to evaluated if the carriage of different SNPs of these genes could influence the rate of sustained virologic response in CHC patients treated with interferon and ribavirin.
