Urinary mitochondrial DNA level as a biomarker of tissue injury in non-diabetic chronic kidney diseases

open access: yesBMC Nephrology, 2018
Background Urinary mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) fragment level has been proposed as a biomarker of chronic kidney disease (CKD). In this study, we determine the relation between urinary mtDNA level and rate of renal function deterioration in non-diabetic ...
