LDL-C and TC mediate the risk of PNPLA3 inhibition on cardiovascular diseases

PNPLA3 is a promising target for the treatment of Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatotic Liver Disease. ARO-PNPLA3 is a drug that efficiently lowers PNPLA3 expression in hepatocytes at the mRNA level, resulting in a significant reduction in liver fat in Phase I clinical trials. However, the long-term effects and potential side effects of ARO-PNPLA3 are not well understood.
