Additionally, there was a positive correlation between LRRC1 mRNA expression and the severity of liver fibrosis in patients with HBV infection (GSE84044; Spearman correlation analysis, R = 0.345, p < 0.001) and alcohol abuse (GSE103580; Spearman correlation analysis, R = 0.347, p < 0.001), as shown in Figure 1B,C. This evidence concerns the gene LRRC1 and Hepatic fibrosis.
