Common noncoding UMOD gene variants induce salt-sensitive hypertension and kidney damage by increasing uromodulin expression
Elevated blood pressure (BP) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) are complex traits representing major global health problems(1,2). Multiple genome-wide association studies (GWAS) identified common variants giving independent susceptibility for CKD and hypertension in the promoter of the UMOD gene(3-9)...
