Defects in processing and trafficking of the AE1 Cl-/HCO3- exchanger associated with inherited distal renal tubular acidosis.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The current (2012) histological classification of immunoglobulin A nephropathy was established using a case-control study of 287 patients. However, the risk of progression to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) has not been validated for the previous (2002) classification. This study aimed to determine whether th...
