Core Tip |
The PPARGC1A rs8192678 A allele was found to be a risk factor for liver biopsy–proven nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) after adjusting for age, sex, and patatin-like phospholipase domain–containing protein 3 rs738409 polymorphism. The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the PPARGC1A rs8192678 risk A allele was also independently associated with the severity of hepatic histological features (S2-3 and A ≥ 2) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), and might also associate with nonobese NASH, indicating that the PPARGC1A rs8192678 risk A allele was associated with NAFLD in the Chinese Han adult population. Also, the intrahepatic expression of PPARGC1A mRNA was significantly lower in the patients who carried the risk A allele, implying that it might be a genetic contribution to the pathogenesis of NAFLD. |
