Abstract:Objective To explore the relationship between the polymophisms of interleukin?17 (IL?17)?197A/G and the outcomes of hepatitis B virus (HBV) infections. Methods The polymorphism of genotypes and al?leles of IL?17?197A/G in 222 chronic HBV infected patients and 88 HBV infected ones as controls. The contains of serum HBV DNA were detected using PCR combined with DNA amplification in vitro, serum IL?17 expression was detected with ELISA and genotype and allele frequency of IL?17?197A/G locus was detected by Beckman SNP kit. Results There was a significant difference in the serum IL?17 expression (F=158.1, r2=0.61, P<0.000 1) among all the groups. For IL?17?197A/G, there were significant differences for the comparison between the two groups, and the frequency of AA genotype was 47.72%in liver cirrhosis group. Moreover, the highest frequency of GG was in HBV clear?ance group (74.81%);and the lowest group was in chronic HBV liver cirrohosis group (19.05%). Conclusion IL?17?197A/G AA genotype and allele might be associated with susceptibility of HBV infection in Han population in Hei?bei Province.
