2020-404 IDENTIFICATION OF NOVEL BIOMARKERS FOR NON-ALCOHOLIC FATTY LIVER DISEASE
SUMMARY: UCLA Researchers in the department of medicine have discovered distinct protein signatures in the blood of patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) as well as NAFLD-related traits including steatosis, hepatocellular ballooning, and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). These proteins were identified using the next-generation...
