Meta-analysis identifies multiple loci associated with kidney function–related traits in east Asian populations

Yukinori Okada, +414 more
- 01 Aug 2012 - 
TL;DR: A meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies for kidney function–related traits, including 71,149 east Asian individuals from 18 studies in 11 population-, hospital- or family-based cohorts, conducted as part of the Asian Genetic Epidemiology Network (AGEN), identified 17 loci newly associated with kidney function-related traits.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic loci influencing kidney function and chronic kidney disease

John C. Chambers, +102 more
- 01 May 2010 - 
TL;DR: Using genome-wide association, common variants at 2p12–p13, 6q26, 17q23 and 19q13 associated with serum creatinine associated with chronic kidney disease are identified.
Journal ArticleDOI

Global DNA hypermethylation is associated with high serum levels of persistent organic pollutants in an elderly population.

TL;DR: In a sample of elderly subjects, high TEQ including PCBs and the dioxin OCDD and high serum levels of PCB126, OCDD, and p,p'-DDE were related to global DNA hypermethylation in a cross-sectional analysis.

CDKN2A/p16INK4 a expression is associated with vascular progeria in chronic kidney disease

TL;DR: In the uremic milieu, increased arterial expression of CDKN2A/p16INK4a associated with vascular progeria in CKD, independently of chronological age is demonstrated, suggesting impaired vitamin K mediated carboxylation may contribute to premature vascular senescence.
