Association of NOS3 (rs 2070744) and SOD2Val16Ala (rs4880) gene polymorphisms with increased risk of ESRD among Egyptian patients

Abstract: Background Chronic kidney Failure (CKD), particularly End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD), may be serious ill-health related to a high death rate. Uremic syndrome leads to increased oxidative stress, inflammation, and dyslipidemia. Our study aimed at identifying the association of NOS3 (rs 2070744) and SOD2 Val16Ala (rs4880) gene polymorphisms within ESRD Egyptian patients. Methods This work was conducted on 100 ESRD and 16 CKD Egyptian patients who wer… Show more

“…In agreement with these observations, our Angolan SCA patients have an even lower frequency of the rs2070744_C allele (9.8%). Therefore, we can hypothesize that the rs2070744_C allele have achieved a lower frequency on the African continent due to a negative selective pressure performed together by SCA and other frequent severe pathologies in Africa, in which this SNP is also a risk factor, such as Essential Hypertension [34], Chronic Kidney Failure and End-Stage Renal Disease [35].…”
