Chronic Kidney Disease and Inflammation: Role of +896A/G Pro-Inflammatory Polymorphism of TLR4 Gene and Δ32 Deletion of CCR5 Gene

Chronic inflammation seems implicated in the pathophysiology of chronic kidney diseases (CKD) and the development of its complications, such as cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Genes encoding inflammatory molecules are, hence, good candidates for CVD risk in haemodialysis patients (HD). We therefore e...
