Abstract excerpt
An autoimmune component has been suggested to play a role in pathogenesis of IgA nephropathy (IgAN). And genetic studies have reported the shared susceptibility loci between IgAN and the prototype autoimmune disease systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). This study was designed to systemically identify and annotate the shared susceptibility genes between IgAN and SLE. We first conducted an imputation-based...
