Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: FOS has been implicated in the progression of renal disease including IgAN. In this study, we investigated whether polymorphisms of FOS family genes [FOS, FOSB, FOS-like antigen 1 (FOSL1), and FOSL2] were associated with immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN) and the clinical phenotypes of IgAN patients. METHODS: We genotyped single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of FOS family genes (rs2239615 and...
