Little is known about the treatment response with respect to viral resistance. Some mutations in the 109-aminoacid fragment of NS5B are associated to Interferon (IFN) and Ribavirin (RBV) resistance. Molecular and clinical studies have identified factors associated with the host and related viruses associated with response to treatment, as the gene encoding IL-28B. This study was divided into two phases whose objectives were to characterize the frequency of mutations conferring resistance to HCV viral evaluating the relevance of these in Responders (R) or Non-Responders (NR) patients to treatment and to characterize genetically the populations regarding genetic polymorphisms SNPs IL-28B in relation to prognosis of response to treatment for HCV. Patient samples were subjected to tests for genotyping and viral load. The sequences generated were compared in the BLAST and the Los Alamos database HCV. We conducted the alignment of homologous sequences and mutations identified. Based on virological parameters genotype and viral load determined the classification of patients according to response to therapy. Genomic DNA was isolated from peripheral blood for carrying out the typing of SNPs of IL-28B. The methodology used was real-time PCR using TaqMan probes specific SNPs. Data analysis was performed using GraphPad Prism with chi-square, relative risk (RR), Odds Ratio (OR) and confidence interval of 95% with a significance level of P |
