PNPLA3 I148M gene variant and chronic kidney disease in type 2 diabetic patients with NAFLD: Clinical and experimental findings
Background and Aims Emerging evidence suggests an association between patatin‐like phospholipase domain‐containing protein‐3 (PNPLA3) rs738409 (I148M protein variant) and risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD), but the mechanisms underpinning this association are poorly understood. Methods We studied...

Zusammenfassung: | Background and Aims
Emerging evidence suggests an association between patatin‐like phospholipase domain‐containing protein‐3 (PNPLA3) rs738409 (I148M protein variant) and risk of chronic kidney disease (CKD), but the mechanisms underpinning this association are poorly understood.
Methods
We studied 157 patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) who underwent ultrasonography and vibration‐controlled transient elastography for diagnosing nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). CKD was defined as estimated glomerular filtration rate (e‐GFR) |
