MDR1 gene C3435T polymorphism in chronic hepatitis C patients

Our result reveals that 71% of the responders were CT genotypes (C3435T) and 62.5% of non-responders were TT genotype (T3435T). With aforementioned results, determination of different forms of SNPs in MDR1 gene should be considered as a predictor in the treatment of all chronic HCV patients. The homozygous TT genotype and high prevalence of T allele may be related to low antiviral response during combined therapy in treatment of chronic HCV patients.
