Abstract

Large-scale genotyping reveals two single nucleotide polymorphisms in the BCL2 gene and a single nucleotide polymorphism in the SERPINA4 gene associated with a decreased risk of developing acute kidney injury, supporting the putative role of apoptosis in the pathogenesis of acute kidney injury.
