Along the same lines, Pavlidis et al. (2011) showed that steatosis grade at baseline was significantly greater as leptin concentrations increased in chronic hepatitis C patients [77] and Eshraghian et al. (2020) demonstrated for the first time that alterations in adiponectin, leptin and insulin resistance were correlated with hepatic steatosis in liver transplant recipients [78]. The gene discussed is LEP; the disease is Insulin resistance.
