BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Susceptibility to fatty liver disease (FLD) varies among individuals and between racial/ethnic groups. Several genetic variants influence FLD risk, but whether these variants explain racial/ethnic differences in FLD prevalence is unclear. We examined the contribution of genetic risk factors to racial/ethnic-specific differences in FLD.
METHODS: A case-control study comparing FLD patients (n = 1194) and population-based controls (n = 3120) was performed. Patient characteristics, FLD risk variants (PNPLA3-rs738409 + rs6006460, TM6SF2-rs58542926, HSD17B13-rs80182459 + rs72613567, MBOAT7/TMC4-rs641738, and GCKR-rs1260326) and a multi-locus genetic risk score (GRS) were examined. The odds of FLD for individuals with different risk factor burdens were determined.
RESULTS: Hispanics and Whites were over-represented (56% vs. 38% and 36% vs. 29% respectively) and Blacks under-represented (5% vs. 23%) among FLD patients, compared to the population from which controls were selected (p < .001). Among cases and controls, Blacks had a lower and Hispanics a greater, net number of risk alleles than Whites (p < .001). GRS was associated with increased odds of FLD (ORQ5vsQ1 = 8.72 [95% CI = 5.97-13.0], p = 9.8 × 10-28 ), with the association being stronger in Hispanics (ORQ5vsQ1 = 14.8 [8.3-27.1]) than Blacks (ORQ5vsQ1 = 3.7 [1.5-11.5], P-interaction = 0.002). After accounting for GRS, the odds of FLD between Hispanics and Whites did not differ significantly (OR = 1.06 [0.87-1.28], p = .58), whereas Blacks retained much lower odds of FLD (OR = 0.21, [0.15-0.30], p < .001).
CONCLUSIONS: Blacks had a lower and Hispanics a greater FLD risk allele burden than Whites. These differences contributed to, but did not fully explain, racial/ethnic differences in FLD prevalence. Identification of additional factors protecting Blacks from FLD may provide new targets for prevention and treatment of FLD.
