| Core Tip |
Responses to vitamin E treatment in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease patients were assessed by noninvasive scoring systems of hepatic fibrosis, and liver stiffness (velocity of shear wave) was measured by acoustic radiation force impulse elastography. Vitamin E treatment for 1 year improved not only liver enzyme levels but also noninvasive fibrosis scores and liver stiffness. Subsequently, the patients were divided into two groups according to patatin-like phospholipase domain containing 3 (PNPLA3) genotype (CC/CG or GG) to examine whether either group responded differently to the treatment. The responses were similar between different PNPLA3 genotypes.
