"[Combined with the lower frequency of PD1 +8669 GG genotype in HBV patients and the minor contribution of PD1 -606 G allele to the protective role of PD1 +8669 G allele, it is indicated that PD1 -606 G allele in a haplotype with PD1 +8669 G allele may have strong inhibitory effect on programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) function and thus reduce its negative impact on T-cell activation and function, leading to higher cytokines secretion and exhibiting a protective role, while the minor predisposing role of PD1 -606 AA genotype to chronic HBV infection may be incurred by decreasing the inhibitory effect on PD-1 function.].
