Only the IL10 promoter rs1800872 SNP was associated with predisposition to chronic hepatitis C. This SNP seems to be a common genetic marker of predisposition to two diseases caused by hepatitis C and tick-borne encephalitis viruses in Russian population.
The results obtained suggest that both studied IL28B gene SNPs, as well as the IL10 gene rs1800872 SNP are associated with predisposition to TBE in Russian population.
The aim of the present study was to estimate a possible association of the IL28B gene rs8103142 and rs12980275 SNPs and IL10 gene rs1800872, rs3021094, and rs3024498 SNPs with predisposition to TBE in a Russian population.
