Identification of 8 Novel Mutations in Nephrogenesis-Related Genes in Chinese Han Patients with Unilateral Renal Agenesis.

CONCLUSION: A total of 10.5% of our URA cases could be explained by mutations in our candidate genes. The mutations in nephrogenesis-related genes in the Chinese Han patients with URA had a decentralized distribution without any hotspot mutations.
