IgA nephropathy (IgAN), major cause of kidney failure worldwide, is common in Asians,
moderately prevalent in Europeans, and rare in Africans. It is not known if these differences …

Background Eighteen known susceptibility loci for IgAN account for only a small proportion
of IgAN risk. Methods Genome-wide meta-analysis was performed in 2628 patients and …

We carried out a genome-wide association study of IgA nephropathy, a major cause of
kidney failure worldwide. We studied 1,194 cases and 902 controls of Chinese Han …

We performed a two-stage genome-wide association study of IgA nephropathy (IgAN) in
Han Chinese, with 1,434 affected individuals (cases) and 4,270 controls in the discovery …

IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is one of the most common primary glomerulonephritis. Previously
identified genome-wide association study (GWAS) loci explain only a fraction of disease risk …

IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is a progressive form of kidney disease defined by glomerular
deposition of IgA. Here we performed a genome-wide association study of 10,146 kidney …

We performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of IgA nephropathy (IgAN), the
most common form of glomerulonephritis, with discovery and follow-up in 20,612 individuals …

IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the most common glomerulonephritis worldwide, but its etiologic
mechanisms are still poorly understood. Different prevalences among ethnic groups and …

Demographic and family studies support the existence of a genetic contribution to the
pathogenesis of IgA nephropathy, but results from genetic association studies of candidate …

Recent genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified multiple susceptibility loci
for immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN), the most common form of glomerulonephritis …
