We genotyped 1088 diabetic kidney disease (DKD) patients and controls for seven polymorphisms in five genes (CYP2C8, CYP2J2, CYP4F2, CYP4A11, and EPHX2) along this metabolic route and evaluated their effect on DKD risk, clinical outcomes, and the plasma/urine levels of eicosanoids measured by LC/MS/MS and immunoenzymatic assays. The gene discussed is CYP2J2; the disease is diabetic kidney disease.
