Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in proteins regulating hepatocellular lipid handling, including Patatin-like Phospholipase Domain-containing 3 (PNPLA3), Transmembrane 6 Superfamily Member 2 (TM6SF2) and Membrane Bound O-acyltransferase Domain-containing 7 (MBOAT7), have been associated to NAFLD predisposition and progression towards NASH and fibrosis [6]. The gene discussed is PNPLA3; the disease is metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease.
