Association of rs10204525 genotype GG and rs2227982 CC combination in programmed cell death 1 with hepatitis B virus infection risk.

ABSTRACT: Single nuclear polymorphism (SNP) of programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) was reported associated with hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, but the SNP sites studied were limited. Whether the combination of 2 or more SNP sites could better represent the relationship between PD-1 SNP and HBV infection was not studied.Eight hundred ninety-eight HBV-infected patients (222 asymptomatic carriers [AsC], 276 chronic hepatitis B, 105 acute-on-chronic liver failure, and 295 liver cirrhosis) and 364 health controls of South China were enrolled in this study. Four PD-1 SNPs (rs10204525, rs2227982, rs41386349, and rs36084323) were selected and detected by TaqMan probe. The frequency of allele, genotype, and combination of different SNPs were compared between different groups.For allele frequency analysis, G a
