The etiology of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is poorly understood, with males and certain populations exhibiting markedly increased susceptibility. Using a systems genetics approach involving multi-omic analysis of ∼100 diverse inbred strains of mice, we recently identified several candidate genes driving NAFLD. We investigated the role of one of these, liver pyruvate kinase (L-PK or Pklr), in NAFLD by using patient samples and mouse models.
