Abstract excerpt
We examined whether single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in SPP1 gene are associated with risk of calcium oxalate urolithiasis (COU). We genotyped nine known SNPs in SPP1 gene (rs11739060, rs28357094, rs2728127, rs11730582, rs1126772, rs9138, , =, and =). Genomic DNA from 1,026 individuals (n = 342 patients with first episode COU, and n = 684 healthy unrelated...
