Investigating the Relationship Between Rare Genetic Variants and Fibrosis in Pediatric Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease
2024-03-04
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background and Aims</h4> Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) is a complex human disease. Common genetic variation in the patatin-like phospholipase domain containing 3 ( PNPLA3 ) and transmembrane 6 superfamily member 2 ( TM6SF2 ) genes have been associated with an increased risk of developing NAFLD, nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), and fibrosis in adults. The role of rare genetic variants in the deve...
