Abstract

Aim. The effectiveness of treatment of chronic hepatitis C (CHC) depends on the genetic characteristics of the patients. The aim was to analyze the association of CYP2E1*6 polymorphism with the risk of development and severity of CHC.

Methods and results. We determined the frequency of CYP2E1*6 polymorphism in 77 patients with CHC and 64 healthy donors using molecular genetic methods. Case histories were retrospectively analyzed. We did not find association between CYP2E1*6 polymorphism and the risk of CHC. The majority of patients with genotype CD had more frequently normal alanineaminotransferase levels than the patients with genotype DD (55,6 % vs 27,1 %, p = 0,026). Patients with genotype DD more often had different stages of liver fibrosis than the patients with genotype CD (34,5 % greater, p = 0,009, OR 4,24, 95% CI 1,37 – 12,93).

Conclusion.This indicates that the genotype DD of  the gene CYP2E1 was associated with more severe course of CHC.
