Abstract excerpt
We investigated the possible impact of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) 936 C/T gene polymorphism on kidney graft outcome. DNA samples of 290 first deceased donor kidney graft recipients with well-functioning grafts and no rejection treatment during the first transplant year (WFG), 265 r...
