PNPLA3 and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease: The enzyme glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and products of oxidative damage such as malondialdehyde (MDA), advanced glycation-end product (AGE), total status of oxidants (TOS), nitric oxide (NO), and cytokines analysis (qRT-PCR) of key mediators such as PNPLA3 in lipid metabolism, TIMP1 in fibrosis, and proinflammatory cytokines like NF-κB, TNF-α, and IL-6, which are crucial for understanding NAFLD progression were recorded to further validate the CV obtained results along with and morphological changes through scanning electron microscope (SEM).
