Variability in kidney stone incidence between black and white South Africans: AGT Pro11Leu polymorphism is not a factor.

Journal of endourology - 1 May 2014

Theka Takalani, Rodgers Allen L, Webber Dawn, O'Ryan Colleen

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Kidney stone disease is rare in the South African black (B) population and more prevalent in the white (W) population. Genetic studies have not previously examined this anomaly. The AGT Pro11Leu polymorphism in the alanine:glyoxylate aminotransferase (AGT) enzyme has been...
