Abstract

Noninvasive risk stratification is a challenging issue in the management of patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). This study aimed to identify multiomics-based predictors of NAFLD progression, as assessed by changes in serial FibroScan-aspartate aminotransferase (FAST) scores during lifestyle modification. A total of 266 patients with available metabolomics and genotyping data were included. The follow-up sub-cohort included patients with paired laboratory and transient elastography results (n = 160). The baseline median FAST score was 0.37. The PNPLA3 rs738409 genotype was significantly associated with a FAST score > 0.35. Circulating metabolomics significantly associated with a FAST score > 0.35 included SM C24:0 (odds ratio [OR] = 0.642; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.463-0.891), PC ae C40:6 (OR = 0.477; 95% CI, 0.340-0.669), lysoPC a C18:2 (OR = 0.570; 95% CI, 0.417-0.779), and tyrosine (OR = 2.743; 95% CI, 1.875-4.014). A combination of these metabolites and PNPLA3 genotype yielded a c-index = 0.948 for predicting a FAST score > 0.35. In the follow-up sub-cohort (median follow-up = 23.7 months), 47/76 patients (61.8%) with a baseline FAST score > 0.35 had a follow-up FAST score ≤ 0.35. An improved FAST score at follow-up was significantly associated with age, serum alanine aminotransferase, and tyrosine. In conclusion, baseline risk stratification in NAFLD patients may be assisted using a multiomics-based model. Particularly, patients with increased tyrosine may benefit from an earlier switch to pharmacologic approaches.
