Abstract:
ObjectiveTo understand the distribution of interleukin(IL)-28B gene polymorphisms in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)/hepatitis C virus (HCV) coinfected Han patients in Hubei Province.MethodsOne hundred Han patients with anti-HIV and anti-HCV double positive in Hubei Province were enrolled.HCV RNA level was detected by fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and genotyping of IL-28B gene was pcrformed by sequencing.The data were analyzed by chi square test.ResultsThe proportion of IL-28B C/C genotype was 95.0 % in target population,arnong which 21.1% (20/95) were HCV RNA negative.While there were no HCV RNA negative cases in C/T and T/T genotypes (0/5;x2 =1.043,P=0.588).ConclusionAmong HIV/HCV coinfccted Han patients in Hubei Province,the proportion of IL-28B C/C genotype is high.
