CRP and fatty liver disease: Several inflammatory markers, including tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-6, CCL3, soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1), and C-reactive protein (CRP), as well as elevated hepatic expression of IL-6, TNF, CXCL10, and IL1RN, have been linked to fatty liver disease (FLD) and increased CV risk [35,36].
