PNPLA3-I148M is a Neomorph that Interferes with Two Primary Hepatic Triglyceride Clearance Pathways
2024-11-03
Abstract excerpt
A common variant of PNPLA3 , encoding PNPLA3-I148M, is the most significant genetic determinant of fatty liver disease worldwide. However, it is unclear precisely how PNPLA3-I148M drives disease risk. Here, we show that endogenous human PNPLA3-I148M impairs secretion of Apolipoprotein B (ApoB), the scaffolding protein of very low-density lipoproteins (VLDLs), from hepatocytes. This is not due to a generalized sec...
