Abstract
A genome-wide scan for serum creatinine, creatinine clearance, and GFR in a West African sample showed linkage regions that may harbor genes influencing variation in these phenotypes. Potential candidate genes in these regions that have been implicated in diabetic nephropathy and/or renal damage in models of hypertension include CYBA (or P22PHOX) (16q24), NOX1 (10q22), and NOX3 (6q25.1-q26).
