Dissertation note: Thesis (M.Sc.) - Cairo University - Faculty of Medicine - Department of Medical Biochemistry Summary: Between 20% and 40% of patients with diabetes ultimately develop diabetic nephropathy (DN), which is the most common cause of end stage renal disease requiring dialysis. Interleukin - 18 (IL - 18) is a pro - inflammatory cytokine and possibly plays an important role in the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy. The promoter region of the human IL - 18 gene has common single nucleotide polymorphisms at positions - 607 and - 137. These polymorphisms have been shown to regulate the IL - 18 production of peripheral blood monocytes and be associated with the transcriptional activity of the IL - 18 gene
