Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Our previous genome-wide association study of IgA nephropathy (IgAN) in a Chinese Han population suggested that the TNFSF13 gene may be a novel susceptibility gene for IgAN. In the present study, we aimed to further evaluate the associations of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and expression level of the TNFSF13 gene with the risk and clinical parameters of IgAN. METHODS: Six candidate SNPs were...
