PNPLA3 p.I148M variant is associated with greater reduction of liver fat content after bariatric surgery
Obesity is the major trigger of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). NAFLD is further favored by the patatin-like phospholipase domain-containing 3 (PNPLA3) p.I148M, transmembrane 6 superfamily member 2 (TM6SF2) p.E167K, and membrane-bound O-acyltransferase domain containing 7 (MBOAT7) rs641738 variants.
