Polymorphisms in APOL1 are associated with CKD, including HIV-related CKD, in individuals of African ancestry. The apolipoprotein L1 (APOL1) protein circulates and is localized in kidney cells, but the contribution of APOL1 location to CKD pathogenesis is unclear. We examined associations of plasma APOL1 levels with plasma cytokine levels, dyslipidemia, and APOL1 genotype in a nested case-control study (n=270) of HIV-infected African Americans enrolled in a multicenter prospective observational study. Patients were designated as having CKD when estimated GFR (eGFR) decreased to
