Finally, in the “selenium micronutrient network” pathway, 11 genes (SELENOM, DIO1, GPX2, GPX3, ALOX15B, FLAP, SAA1, SAA2, CCL2, HBB, and SERPINE1) had higher expression in NASH and seven genes (TXNRD3, SOD1, SAA4, ABCA1, MTR, CBS, and PLG) had lower expression in NASH compared to HOC. The gene discussed is PLG; the disease is metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis.
