Epigenetic memory in kidney diseases.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Impaired reproductive function accompanies chronic renal insufficiency (uremia) in both the human and experimental animal. Clinical hypogonadism occurs in both genders. The present studies were designed to investigate possible anti-ovulatory effects of uremia in the female rat, a species that produces multip...
