Core Tip For the first time, our study reports that a heterozygous frameshift mutation in the PYROXD2 gene may underlie early-onset liver fibrosis. This variant impairs the function of mitochondrial oxidoreductases, ultimately triggering metabolic disturbances and the development of early liver fibrosis. Our findings uncover a novel pathogenic variation of PYROXD2 linking to early-onset liver fibrosis, thereby providing a new rationale for the genetic diagnosis of related disorders.
