Abstract
A review was carried out to check where IL6–174G/Cgene polymorphisms is associated with NAFLD and number of studies were reviewed and found that the 174C genotype is almost absent in African and Asian populations where as it appears that the majority of Asian populations carry the GG genotypes, ranging from 75.0 to 100.0%, whereas Caucasians in the West had a higher frequency of CC genotypes, ranging from 18.0 to 32.0% and it was found that IL-6 –174C polymorphism is associated NAFLD and can be used as a predictor for the metabolic abnormalities in NAFLD and possible progression of the disease and IL6 gene polymorphism could be helpful in identifying individuals at increased risk for developing NAFLD in obese adolescents.
