Association of MBOAT7 gene variant with plasma ALT levels in children: the PANIC study.

• We studied for the first time among children differences in plasma alanine aminotransferase (ALT) among genotypes of the rs641738 polymorphism in the MBOAT7 gene that has been associated with increased risk of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease among adults. We also investigated the associations of a genetic risk score combining information from the MBOAT7, PNPLA3, and TM6SF2 polymorphisms with plasma ALT.
