▶PNPLA3 Variants Specifically Confer Increased Risk for Histologic Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease But Not Metabolic Disease†,‡AssociationN=2,083Elizabeth K. Speliotes et al.(2010)· Hepatology
A case-control study examining genetic variants associated with liver function tests and steatosis and their relationship to histologically-defined nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The rs738409 PNPLA3 variant showed the strongest association with NAFLD (OR = 3.26, 95% CI 2.11-7.21, p = 3.60E-43), and displayed significant associations with severe histologic features including fibrosis, ballooning, and inflammation within the NAFLD cohort. Other genetic variants at CPN1, ABO, GPLD1, JMJD1C, GGT1, and HNF1A loci did not show significant associations with NAFLD, suggesting PNPLA3 genetic variation specifically confers increased risk for histologic NAFLD without strong effects on metabolic traits.
About JMJD1C
The protein encoded by this gene interacts with thyroid hormone receptors and contains a jumonji domain. It is a candidate histone demethylase and is thought to be a coactivator for key transcription factors. It plays a role in the DNA-damage response pathway by demethylating the mediator of DNA damage checkpoint 1 (MDC1) protein, and is required for the survival of acute myeloid leukemia. Mutations in this gene are associated with Rett syndrome and intellectual disability. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2015]
