Abstract-Vorschau
Introduction: Recently the natural killer cell receptor G2D (NKG2D) has been shown to be involved in NK-cell induced apoptosis of hepatic stellate cells in chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. Because stellate cells also play a critical role in liver fibrosis development we speculate that functional polymorphisms in this gene influence fibrosis progression. Thus we studied the influence of a common NKG2D polym…
