High expression of FAM13A was associated with increasing the liver cirrhosis risk
AssociationN=644Yingai Zhang et al.(2019)· Molecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine

This case-control study examined FAM13A gene polymorphisms in 260 liver cirrhosis patients and 384 controls. The minor allele 'A' of rs3017895 was associated with increased liver cirrhosis risk (OR = 1.32, 95% CI = 1.03-1.68, p = 0.028). The G-A haplotype of rs3017895-rs1059122 significantly increased cirrhosis risk (OR = 1.34, 95% CI = 1.04-1.73, p = 0.026). Immunohistochemistry showed FAM13A expression was significantly higher in cirrhotic liver tissue compared to normal tissue.
