Polymorphism in the GATM Locus Associated with Dialysis-Independent Chronic Kidney Disease but Not Dialysis-Dependent Kidney Failure.

ABSTRACT: The ten most statistically significant estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFRcrea)-associated loci from genome-wide association studies (GWAs) are tested for associations with chronic kidney disease (CKD) in 208 patients, including dialysis-independent CKD and dialysis-dependent end-stage renal disease (kidney failure). The allele A of intergenic SNP rs2453533 (near GATM) is more frequent in dialysis-independent CKD patients (n = 135, adjusted p = 0.020) but not dialysis-dependent kidney failure patients (n = 73) compared to healthy controls (n = 309). The allele C of intronic SNP rs4293393 (UMOD) is more frequent in healthy controls (adjusted p = 0.042) than in CKD patients. The Allele T of intronic SNP rs9895661 (BCAS3) is assoc
