Association of Apolipoprotein L-1 polymorphisms with blood pressure in three multi-ethnic African studies
# Background Genetic variants in the Apolipoprotein L1 (APOL1) gene greatly increase risk for chronic kidney disease in African Americans. We hypothesized that the APOL1 renal risk alleles would be associated with higher blood pressure in Africans. # Methods We used data from three multi-ethnic,...
