Recent advances in MASLD genetics: Insights into disease mechanisms and the next frontiers in clinical application

Abstract excerpt

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is the most common chronic liver disease in the world and a growing cause of liver-related morbidity and mortality. Yet, at the same time, our understanding of the pathophysiology and genetic underpinnings of this increasingly common yet heterogeneous disease has increased dramatically over the last 2 decades, with the potential to lead to...
