An interleukin 6-based genetic risk score strengthened with interleukin 10 polymorphisms associated with long-term kidney allograft outcomes
1 Dec 2022
Abstract excerpt
Of all kidney transplants, half are still lost in the first decade after transplantation. Here, using genetics, we probed whether interleukin 6 (IL-6) could be a target in kidney transplantation to improve graft survival. Additionally, we investigated if a genetic risk score (GRS) based on IL6 and IL10 variants could improve prognostication of graft loss. In a prospective cohort study, DNA of 1271 donor-recipient...
