For instance, hepatic CD36 mRNA and protein levels are 65%–85% greater in subjects with NAFLD than in BMI-matched subjects without NAFLD [90], and expression of the FABP isoforms FABP-4 and FABP-5 in the liver correlates directly with IHTG content [88]. Here, FABP5 is linked to metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease.
