The aim of the present study was to determine whether the -493G/T (rs1800591), I128T (rs3816873), Q95H (rs61733139), and Q244E (rs17599091) Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) in the MTTP gene are linked to the presence of hepatic steatosis in patients with chronic hepatitis C. Here, MT-TP is linked to fatty liver disease.
