Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between mannose-binding protein(MBP) gene codon 54 (GGC/GAC) polymorphism and the patterns of glomerular immune deposition in IgA nephropathy (IgAN) and explore its functional significance. METHODS: IgAN patients were divided into two groups according to the pattern of glomerular immune deposition. Group A included 77 patients with glomerular IgA and C3 deposits. Group...
