Abstract excerpt
The purpose of our study was to evaluate the correlation of polymorphisms in angiotensinogen (AGT), angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), and endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) genes and the development and prognostic implications for immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN)/membranous nephropathy (MN). A polymerase chain reaction was performed for the AGT, ACE, and eNOS genes, followed by DNA sequencing and...
