CN-1 activity correlates with CNDP1 genotype in hemodialysis patients. (a) CN-1 activity in (CTG)5 homozygous hemodialysis patients is significantly lower than that in patients carrying other genotypes. ((b) and (c)) After gender stratification differences in CN-1 activity between the (CTG)5 homozygous, all other genotypes remained but only reached statistical significance in females (c).
