<i>NR3C1</i> Glucocorticoid Receptor Gene Polymorphisms Are Associated with Membranous and IgA Nephropathies
Glomerular diseases (GNs) are responsible for approximately 20% of chronic kidney diseases. Glucocorticoid receptor gene (<i>NR3C1</i>) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are implicated in differences in predisposition to autoimmunity and steroid sensitivity. The aim of this study wa...

Glomerular diseases (GNs) are responsible for approximately 20% of chronic kidney diseases. Glucocorticoid receptor gene (<i>NR3C1</i>) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are implicated in differences in predisposition to autoimmunity and steroid sensitivity.
