Four common SNPs (rs62064119, rs2297508, rs11868035 and rs13306741) in the SREBP-1c gene were selected and genotyped in 593 patients with NAFLD and 593 healthy controls.
We followed up 212 randomly selected, nonobese, nondiabetic, insulin-sensitive participants in a population-based study without NAFLD or metabolic syndrome at baseline who were characterized for the common SREBF-1c gene rs11868035 A/G polymorphism, dietary habits, physical activity, adipokine profile, C-reactive protein (CRP), and circulating markers of endothelial dysfunction.
