GWAS-Based Discoveries in IgA Nephropathy, Membranous Nephropathy, and Steroid-Sensitive Nephrotic Syndrome

Abstract excerpt

Over the past decade, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have emerged as a powerful tool to understand the genetic basis of complex traits in humans. The GWAS approach has been successfully applied to primary glomerular disorders, providing numerous novel insights into the genetic architecture of IgA nephropathy, membranous nephropathy, and steroid-sensitive nephrotic syndrome. IgA nephropathy appears to have...
