A tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) promoter polymorphism is associated with chronic hepatitis B infection.

1998

SUMMARY Cytokines such as TNF-α and interferon gamma (IFN-γ) are important for the elimination of infected hepatocytes during acute hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. Two G versus A transitions in the TNF-α promoter region at positions −308 and −238 possibly influence TNF-α expression. We investigated these TNF-α polymorphisms in 71 patients with chronic HBV infection, in 32 subjects that had spontaneously recovered from acute HBV infection, and in 99 healthy controls. The −238 A promoter variant was present in 18 (25%) of 71 patients with chronic HBV infection compared with two (6%) of 32 subjects with acute infection (P < 0.04), and seven (7%) of 99 controls (P < 0.003). By …
