PNPLA3 I148M Polymorphism in Patients with Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease, Obesity and Prediabetes

Abstract: Background and Aims: Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is closely associated with obesity and insulin resistance, and therefore predisposes to type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. Lipid deposition in the liver seems to be critical in the pathogenesis of NAFLD. A common genetic variant, the patatin-like phospholipase domain-containing protein 3 (PNPLA3) has been associated with NAFLD. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the association between PNPLA3, key gene of lipid metabolism and the… Show more

“…In our study, The PNPLA3 rs738409 gene polymorphism frequency was highly significant in diabetic obese patients when compared to diabetic none obese group. This result goes with that of Karamfilova et al [45] who demonstrated a relationship between diabetes mellitus and the PNPLA3I148M allele. Significantly higher percentage of CG and GG genotype was found in patients with insulin resistance.…”

“…By 2030, the number of NAFLD cases is expected to reach 100.9 million [26]. Overnutrition and sedentary lifestyle have been considered as the main causes of NAFLD [27] and genetic variants, including PNPLA3 rs738409, TM6SF2 rs58542926 and HSD17B13 rs72613567, in patients may accelerate or decelerate the progression of NAFLD [28–30]. The present study focused on another candidate gene, SAMM50 , aiming to investigate its association with NAFLD in a Chinese cohort (Table S4).…”

“… 16 , 25 The PNPLA3 I148M polymorphism also reportedly increased the risk of insulin resistance, obesity, and systemic inflammation. 26 - 28 Indeed, previous studies demonstrated that accelerated lung function decline is attributed to insulin resistance. 19 The associations among lung function, BMI, and systemic inflammation have been well studied.…”
