Abstract

ABSTRACT:  Aim: We investigated the +874 T/A polymorphism in the first intron of the IFNG gene and intronic (CA)n polymorphic microsatellite marker of the IFNGR 1 gene in child nonresponders to hepatitis B vaccination. Materials & methods: A total of 100 children who had anti-HBs antibody levels <10 mIU/ml after vaccination against hepatitis B were included as a nonresponder group and 100 children who had anti-HBs antibody levels >10 mIU/ml after vaccination against hepatitis B were included as a responder group. Results: The frequency of the TT genotype of the IFNG (+874 T/A) gene polymorphism was higher in nonresponders (p = 0.003). The frequencies of alleles 170 and 182 for (CA)n alleles for the intronic (CA)n microsatellite of IFNGR1 were significantly higher in nonresponders (for each, p < 0.05). Conclusion: The TT genotype of the IFNG (+874 T/A) gene, and alleles 170 and 182 for (CA)n alleles for the intronic (CA)n microsatellite of the IFNGR1 gene, may be associated with nonresponse to hepatitis B vaccination.
