Novel blood and tissue-based mitochondrial D-loop mutations detected in an Iranian NAFLD patient cohort.

Abstract excerpt

Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is an increasingly prevalent chronic liver disease characterized by an elusive etiology. In its advanced stages, this condition can pose life-threatening implications. Mitochondrial dysfunction due to its impact on hepatic lipid homeostasis, cytokine release, ROS production, and cell death, contributes to the pathogenesis of NAFLD. Previous research reveals a direct link...
