Frequency of HFE gene variants in Polish HIV infected and HIV/HCV co-infected patients

Conclusion Presence of mutations in the HFE gene in the Polish HIV/HCV infected population is similar to those reported for other Caucasian populations. This applies both to the C282Y and H63D variants, although in the second case, recessive allele G appeared numerically more commonly than among other populations tested.
