Finally, a recent study regarding TLR3 polymorphisms and their association with hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection[18] found that whereas genetic variance (rs1879026/GT) was more common in HBV carriers than in uninfected controls haplotype analysis revealed that specific haplotypes GCGA (rs1879026, rs5743313, rs5743314, and rs5743315) were significantly associated with HBV infection. The gene discussed is TLR3; the disease is hepatitis A virus infection.
