Study Summary

The primary goal of this study is to identify a set of genotypes that increase the risk for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and predispose individuals to increased de novo lipogenesis (DNL) and liver fat accumulation when exposed to fructose intake. The proposed goal will be achieved through the completion of following aims: 1. To determine the impact of prolonged exposure of fructose on hepatic lipid accumulation in Caucasian individuals with high and low genetic risk for NAFLD, 2. to determine the impact of acute exposure of fructose on hepatic DNL, and 3. to determine the relationship between markers of DNL, liver fat accumulation and serum concentrations of lipids, uric acid and liver function markers before and after the fructose challenge.

Primary Outcome

Elastography (Fibroscan) will be used to measure changes in liver fat.
