In addition, the intrinsic AKI group showed marked elevation of S100A8/A9 levels compared to the pre-renal AKI group (2629.97±598.05 ng/mL vs. 685.09±111.65 ng/mL; P = 0.002 in serum; 3361.11±250.86 ng/mL vs. 741.72±101.96 ng/mL; P = 0.003 in urine). The gene discussed is S100A8; the disease is acute kidney injury.
