The association of adiponectin gene polymorphisms with susceptibility and progression of NAFLD in a cohort of Egyptian patients

Abstract Background Several genetic polymorphisms have been proven to play a key role in the progression of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) from simple steatosis to NASH with fibrosis. Our aim was to study the effect of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the adiponectin gene, namely...
