摘要
AIM:To examine the association between -86 bp(T>A) in the glucose-regulated protein 78 gene(GRP78) and hepatitis B virus(HBV) invasion.METHODS:DNA was genotyped for the single-nucleotide polymorphism by polymerase chain reaction followed by sequencing in a sample of 382 unrelated HBV carriers and a total of 350 sex-and age-matched healthy controls.Serological markers for HBV infection were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent as-say kits or clinical chemistry testing.RESULTS:The distributions of allelotype and genotype in cases were not significantly different from those in controls.In addition,our fi ndings suggested that neither alanine aminotransferase/hepatitis B e antigen nor HBV-DNA were associated with the allele/genotype variation in HBV infected individuals.CONCLUSION:-86 bp T>A polymorphism in GRP78 gene is not related to the clinical risk and acute exacerbation of HBV invasion.
