Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Primary gout has been associated with single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in several tubular urate transporter genes. No study has assessed the association of reabsorption and secretion urate transporter gene SNP with gout in a single cohort of documented primary patients with gout carefully subclassified as normoexcretors or underexcretors. METHODS: Three reabsorption SNP (SLC22A12/URAT1,...
