Genetic association analysis investigates adipocytokine pathway polymorphisms in obese children, highlighting susceptibility markers for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has significant genetic susceptibility. Adipocytokines play a crucial role in NAFLD development by participating in insulin resistance and hepatic steatosis. However, the association between adipocytokine pathway genes and NAFLD remains unclear. This study aims to explore the association of gene polymorphisms in the adipocytokine pathway and their interactions with NAFLD in obese children.
