Researchers create genetic map tied to kidney disease

Over 1,000 genes may serve as possible treatment targets for individuals with kidney disease, according to a new study. By creating the most complete and detailed genetic 'map' of kidney function to date, the researchers have paved the way for more precise diagnosing of kidney disease, strategies to prevent it, and ways to treat it.
