Association of Genetic Variants in PNPLA3, MBOAT7, and MARC1 with Metabolic and Hematological Immune-Inflammation Indices in Adolescent Females with and Without MASLD: A Multilevel Risk-Allele Burden Analysis.

Abstract excerpt

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is increasingly recognized during adolescence and exhibits sex-specific characteristics. Its prevalence in late adolescent females is around 10% in the general population and exceeds 30% in obesity. Genetic variants in PNPLA3, MBOAT7, and MARC1 modulate hepatic fat accumulation and liver injury in adults, but evidence in adolescent females remains...
