Genetic Polymorphisms in Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease in Obese Egyptian Children

BACKGROUND/AIM: Polymorphisms in the promoter of microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) lead to decreased MTP transcription, less export of triglyceride from hepatocytes, and greater intracellular triglyceride accumulation. Therefore, functional polymorphisms in MTP may be involved in determ...
