Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) occurs in immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN), and the pathogenesis is not known behind the endothelium injury. The genetic studies have indicated that complement factor H (CFH) and complement factor H-related protein genes (CFHRs)play a key role in IgAN. We perform a study to investigate the CFH /CFHRs gene variants and their roles in IgAN with microangiopathy based...
