Apolipoprotein L1: role in the evaluation of kidney transplant donors.

Current opinion in nephrology and hypertension - 1 Nov 2020

Lentine Krista L, Mannon Roslyn B

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: To summarize the current state of evidence regarding the role of apolipoprotein L1 (APOL1) genotyping in evaluating donors for kidney transplantation. RECENT FINDINGS: African ancestry is associated with an increased risk of kidney failure following living donation. Moreover, kidney transplants from African ancestry deceased donors have an increased risk of graft failure. Preliminary evidence...
