The current study genotyped two selected SNPs (IFIH1 rs3747517 and DDX58 rs9695310) using TaqMan allelic discrimination assay to assess their association with the susceptibility and clinical outcome of HCV infection among 3065 participants (1545 non-HCV infection individuals, 568 spontaneous HCV clearance cases, and 952 persistent infection patients).
IFIH1 rs3747517 (dominant model: Adjusted odds ratio [OR] = 1.34, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.07-1.68; P = 0.009) and DDX58 rs9695310 (dominant model: Adjusted OR = 1.43, 95% CI = 1.15-1.78; P = 0.001) were associated with chronic hepatitis C (CHC).
The results indicated that RIG-1 (rs3739674 and rs9695310) polymorphisms are associated with an increased risk of EV71-induced HFMD in Chinese children, whereas RIG-1 rs3739674 and TLR3 rs5743305 polymorphisms are associated with disease severity.

Toll-like receptors 9 (TLR9_rs5743836), and 3 (TLR3_rs3775291), Interleukin-28B (IL28B_rs12979860), and DEAD-box polypeptide 58 (DDX58_rs10813831) were genotyped in 73 EBV-positive and 106 EBV-negative cHL patients and 396 controls.
Marked dysregulations of microbial defense factors Ifit3 and Rsad2 were consistently observed upon five analyses: (1) Pink1 <sup>-/-</sup> primary neurons in the first weeks after brain dissociation, (2) aged Pink1 <sup>-/-</sup> midbrain with transgenic A53T-alpha-synuclein overexpression, (3) human neuroblastoma cells with PINK1-knockdown and murine Pink1 <sup>-/-</sup> embryonal fibroblasts undergoing acute starvation, (4) triggering mitophagy in these cells with trifluoromethoxy carbonylcyanide phenylhydrazone (FCCP), and (5) subjecting them to pathogenic RNA-analogue poly(I:C).

The results revealed a lower carrier frequency of the DDX58 rs3205166 G allele in DEN than in HCs and a higher frequency of the DDX58 rs669260 T/C genotype in DHF than in DF cases (P = 0.043, OR with 95 % CI 3.358 [1.038-10.861]).
