Abstract excerpt
Hypoxic signaling is a critical factor in the pathogenesis of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD). Hypoxia-Inducible Factor 1 (HIF-1) is a transcription factor that is highly expressed in the kidney and is associated with renal tubular hypoxic adaptation. Variation in the HIF-1α subunit gene has been associated with renal pathologies. This study investigated the association between three single-nucleotide polymorphisms...
