Hepatic SLC16A13 gene expression significantly correlated with waist circumference (Fig. 1c), BMI (Fig. 1d), HOMA-IR (Fig. 1e), and histologically assessed liver steatosis (Fig. 1f) as well as with quantitatively measured liver TAG content (Fig. 1g). This evidence concerns the gene SLC16A13 and Hepatic steatosis.
