The rs641738 C > T variant linked to the 3’ untranslated region of the MBOAT7 (membrane bound O-acyltransferase domain-containing 7 gene) was recently associated with the risk of NAFLD, inflammation, and fibrosis by reducing protein expression and phosphatidyl-inositol desaturation in hepatocytes [44]. Here, MBOAT7 is linked to metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease.
