A functional MMP-9-1562C>T polymorphism, MMP-9 serum levels and nephrolithiasis risk in a southern Chinese population

BackgroundThe role of matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9) in the pathophysiology of chronic kidney disease (CKD), which is associated with a nearly two-fold greater risk for urinary calculi compared to people without CKD, has been demonstrated. The aim of the research is to evaluate the association b...
