Abstract excerpt
Sodium taurocholate co-transporting polypeptide (NTCP), a bile acid transporter, plays a crucial role in regulating bile acid levels and influencing the risk of HBV infection. Genetic variations in the SLC10A1 gene, which encodes NTCP, affect these functions. However, the impact of SLC10A1 gene variants on the metabolic and biochemical traits remained unclear. We aimed to investigate the association of SLC10A1...
