Abstract excerpt
Background: DKD, a leading cause of chronic kidney and end-stage renal disease, lacks robust immunological research. Recent GWAS utilizing SNPs and CNVs has shed light on immune mechanisms of kidney diseases. However, DKD's immunological basis remains elusive. Our goal is to unravel cause-effect relationships between immune cells and DKD using Mendelian randomization. Methodology: We analyzed FinnGen data (1032...
