Genetic Variants Flanking the FGF21 Gene Were Associated with Renal Function in Chinese Patients with Type 2 Diabetes
Aims. Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) is closely linked with metabolic disorders including diabetes. Evidences suggested that FGF21 may play a protective role against diabetic kidney disease (DKD). However, the relationship between genetic variants in the FGF21 gene region and DKD remains unknow...
