Abstract:
Objective To investigate the relationship between HCV genotype and its level and the response to interferon (IFN).Methods HCV genotypes were detected by type-specific primes modified PCR assay.HCV-RNA levels were determined by branched DNA(bDNA) singnal PCR amplification fluorescence assay.The patients with chronic hepatitis C virus infection treated with IFN ? were divided into different groups according to genotypes or levels of HCV.Result Patients with pre-treatment HCV levels10 9 eq?L -1 showed partial responses (28 6%) or no responsces (28 6%).Stasistical analysis showed significant difference (P
