Limited use of interleukin 28B in the setting of response-guided treatment with detailed on-treatment virological monitoring
ReviewAlessandra Mangia et al.(2011)· Hepatology

This is a special issue of the Italian medical journal BeAdfiles (September 2012) dedicated to genetic conditioning in HIV and hepatitis virus infections. It reviews the major genetic polymorphisms that influence disease progression, treatment response, and drug toxicity in HIV and chronic hepatitis B and C infections, with particular emphasis on IL28B polymorphisms (rs809917 and others) predicting HCV treatment response to interferon-alpha and ribavirin therapy, and ITPA gene variants protecting against ribavirin-induced anemia. The issue also covers pharmacogenetic markers (CYP2B6, ABCB1, HLA-B*5701) and their clinical applications in antiretroviral therapy.

About RXRG

This gene encodes a member of the retinoid X receptor (RXR) family of nuclear receptors which are involved in mediating the antiproliferative effects of retinoic acid (RA). This receptor forms dimers with the retinoic acid, thyroid hormone, and vitamin D receptors, increasing both DNA binding and transcriptional function on their respective response elements. This gene is expressed at significantly lower levels in non-small cell lung cancer cells. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2010]
