Genes that cause severe liver disease in children also influence risk and severity of common liver conditions in adults
2025-05-12
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background and aims</h4> Rare, pathogenic variants can cause severe liver disease, requiring transplantation in childhood, but it is unclear how common variants in the same genes affect adults. Here, we aimed to establish population-level genetic evidence for whether ’monogenic’ diseases are associated with liver injury in adulthood. <h4>Methods</h4> We identified 99 genes where pathological mutations cause...
