چکیده

Literature data indicate an association between the presence of Helicobacter spp. in the liver and the development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the role of H. pylori infections in chronic liver diseases (CLD) remains controversial. The aim of this study was to detect Helicobacter spp. DNA in patients with CLD, and to investigate the host response to the presence of the bacterium in the liver. Helicobacter spp. DNA was detected in 59% samples. H.pylori was the most prevalent species (94%). We estimated the expression level of IL-1 and IL-8 genes. The presence of Helicobacter spp. did not have a significant effect on the gene expression of IL-8 and IL-1.

Genetic Variations in Host Factors and their Critical Role on HCV Medication

Although standard treatments are nearly life-saving in hepatitis C patients, all patients equalldon’t respond to such medications. To achieve an efficient therapeutic response in all patients, medications should individually alter based on genetic factor variations. Hence, having more detailed knowledge of the affective factors on the disease promotion could help us to organize an appropr...
