Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background and aims</h4> The I148M PNPLA3, the rs641738 in MBOAT7/TMC4 locus and the E167K TM6SF2 polymorphisms represent the main predisposing factors to non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) development and progression. We previously generated a full knockout of MBOAT7 in HepG2 cells (MBOAT7 -/- ), homozygous for the I148M PNPLA3. Therefore, we aimed to:1) investigate the synergic impact of the 3 at-...
