“…The minor-allele frequency also correlates with ethnic differences in susceptibility to NAFLD. Multiple histologically based studies have clearly demonstrated that the PNPLA3 I148M variant is associated with the severity of steatohepatitis and fibrosis 89 and more recently with the presence of HCC 90 .…”

“…Indeed, the higher number of HCC cases observed in individuals carrying the mutant allele in that study may only reflect worsening of liver injury over time rather than a direct role of PNPLA3 in liver carcinogenesis. More recently, a two-stage case-control study performed in NAFLD patients allowed for refinement of this issue [60]. While comparing genotype distributions between HCC patients and individuals from the general population, a study reported an OR of a large magnitude (12.19 95% confidence interval [6.89-21.58]).…”

“…It has been demonstrated that this SNP is related to the impairment of hepatic triglyceride hydrolysis, resulting the accumulation of triglycerides in the hepatocytes . Recent studies have shown an association between rs738409 and HCC development in NASH (Romeo et al, 2008;Valenti et al, 2013;Liu et al, 2014) and ASH (Nischalke et al, 2011;Stickel et al, 2011;Trepo et al, 2012), suggesting a carcinogenic effect by modulating lipid metabolism. However, it is not clear whether this polymorphism affects HCC development in patients with chronic viral hepatitis (Singal et al, 2014).…”
