6. the TM6SF2 C>T polymorphism affects nutrient oxidation, glucose homeostasis, and postprandial lipoprotein, adipokine, and GIP responses to fat ingestion independently of fasting values PMID: 28242789
7. These data demonstrate that rs58542926 (E167K) and rs187429064 (L156P) are functional variants and suggest that they influence metabolic traits through altered TM6SF2 protein stability. PMID: 28449094

11. TM6SF2 association with adiposity and the risk of the nonalcoholic fatty liver disease PMID: 28436986
12. Fibrosis stages were affected by the PNPLA3 (P = 0.042) and MBOAT7 (P = 0.021) but not by the TM6SF2 polymorphism (P > 0.05). The PNPLA3, TM6SF2, and MBOAT7 variants are associated with increased liver injury. The TM6SF2 variant seems to modulate predominantly hepatic fat accumulation, whereas the MBOAT7 polymorphism is linked to fibrosis. The PNPLA3 polymorphism confers risk of both increased steatosis and fibrosis PMID: 27836992
13. The TM6SF2 E167K substitution promotes steatosis and lipid abnormalities in part by altering TM6SF2 and microsomal triglyceride transfer protein expression and differentially impacts chronic hepatitis C and chronic hepatitis B viral load. PMID: 26822232
14. Data suggest that a polymorphism in TM6SF2 (E167K) affects cell cycle of hepatocellular carcinoma cell line and is involved in gene expression regulation. PMID: 28407767

16. The investigator looked for but could not find any affect of TM6SF2 genotype on histological features, including stage of fibrosis in NAFLD Japanese patients. PMID: 26610348
17. Expression of TM6SF2 promoted cholesterol biosynthesis in hepatocytes. PMID: 26774178
18. The TM6SF2 p.E167K variant is associated with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. PMID: 26745555
19. In summary we found the TM6SF2 167K variant is associated with a higher prevalence of hepatic steatosis. PMID: 26520056
20. transmembrane 6 superfamily 2 C/T or T/T variants in conjunction with patatin-like phospho-lipase domain-containing protein 3 G/G variants may be potential genetic risk factors for developing HCC in alcohol-related cirrhosis. PMID: 26493626
21. TM6SF2 rs58542926 is not associated with steatosis and fibrosis in large cohort of patients with genotype 1 Chronic hepatitis C. PMID: 26259026

23. Treating liver fat and serum triglyceride levels in NAFLD, effects of PNPLA3 and TM6SF2 genotypes: effect of Omacor administration. PMID: 26272871
24. Although the TMS6SF2 E167K variant predisposes obese children to NAFLD, there is an association between this variant and lower levels of cardiovasc risk factors: differential effects of TMS6SF2 E167K variant on liver and heart health. PMID: 25893821

29. Although the TM6SF2-rs58542926 variant confers protection against cardiovascular disease at the expense of an increased risk of nonalcoholic fatty liver, it does not explain the link between these two complex diseases. PMID: 26331730

31. TM6SF2 expression is significantly decreased in the liver of patients with NAFLD, and rs58542926 variant might regulate liver transcript and protein expression in an allele-specific manner. PMID: 25302781
32. the E167K variant in TM6SF2 is associated with a distinct subtype of NAFLD, characterized by preserved insulin sensitivity with regard to lipolysis, hepatic glucose production and lack of hypertriglyceridemia despite a clearly increased liver fat content PMID: 25457209
