Efficacy and safety of daclatasvir and asunaprevir for hepatitis C virus genotype 1b infection. [PDF]
The treatment strategy for hepatitis C virus (HCV) has been changing rapidly since the introduction of direct-acting antivirals such as daclatasvir (DCV) and asunaprevir (ASV). We evaluated the efficacy and safety of DCV and ASV for HCV in real-life practice.Patients were treated with 60 mg of DCV once daily plus 200 mg of ASV twice daily for 24 weeks,

Contribution of Cyclin-dependent Kinase Inhibitor 1B Genotypes to Childhood Leukemia Risk
Although genetic differences in cell-cycle control genes have been associated with cancer risk, to our knowledge, no report has specifically examined the role of gene variants in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1B (CDKN1B; also known as p27/KIP1) is a cell-cycle regulating gene.

Hepatitis C Virus Genotyping: Interrogation of the 5′ Untranslated Region Cannot Accurately Distinguish Genotypes 1a and 1b [PDF]
ABSTRACT Although the 5′ untranslated region (5′ UTR) is the most conserved region of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) genome, it has been suggested that interrogation of this region is sufficient for determination of the HCV genotype. We compared two methods of determination of the HCV genotype: (i) direct sequencing of the DNA of the NS-5b ...

Alcohol dehydrogenase 1B genotype and fetal alcohol syndrome: a HuGE minireview
Fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS), 1 of the most common developmental disabilities in the United States, occurs at a rate of 0.5-2.0:1000 live births. Animal model, family, and twin studies suggest a genetic component to FAS susceptibility. Alcohol dehydrogenases (ADHs) catalyze the rate-limiting step in alcohol metabolism.

Epidemiology and Genotype Distribution of Hepatitis C Virus in Russia
The hepatitis C virus (HCV) causes both acute and chronic infection of the liver that can lead to liver cirrhosis, cancer, and liver failure. HCV is characterized by high genetic diversity and substantial variations in the prevalence of specific HCV ...
