“…Pro-inflammatory, Th1, Th2, and Th17 cytokines, as well as transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) have been reported to take part in the development and progression of diabetic nephropathy [46]. In this regard, gene polymorphism of cytokines and their receptors may exhibit functional variations, the delineation of which may be useful to predict the susceptibility and progression of diabetic nephropathy [48]. Certainly, improved knowledge of recognizing cytokines as significant pathogenic mediators in diabetic nephropathy would open new avenues for development of novel potential therapeutic agents in the future.…”

“…In clinical studies, CCR5 gene polymorphisms are not only related to the phenotypes [75, 76] but also to the risk of nephropathy in type 1 and type 2 diabetes patients [8286]. During diabetic nephropathy, the production of chemokines, such as RANTES, CCL3, and CCL4, by glomerular and tubular cells has been reported in hyperglycemia [87–89].…”

“…This polymorphism leads to a premature stop codon, and thus results in a shortened non-functional protein that fails to reach the cell surface (Khademi et al, 2008). The 59029 G/A polymorphism of the CCR5 gene, which is detected in the promoter region, causes increased transcriptional activity of the gene, thus increasing the protein level (Buraczynska et al, 2012).…”
