What is Analysis of the association of NPHS2 and ACTN4 genes polymorphism with nephrotic syndrome in Egyptian children about?

## Background One of the most common kidney illnesses in developing countries is pediatric nephrotic syndrome (PNS), which is frequently associated with dyslipidemia and edema. The rapid discovery of genes related to NS has aided in the understanding of the molecular mechanics of glomerular filtration. The goal of this study is to determine the relationship between NPHS2 and ACTN4 in PNS youngsters. ## Methods A study with 100 NS children and 100 healthy matched volunteers was conducted. Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood. Single-nucleotide polymorphisms were genotyped using ARMS-PCR. ## Results A substantial decline in the level of albumin was found in NS cases (__P__ < 0.001) Further on, a significantly difference in T.C and TG level between healthy and NS patient. Molecular study showed a highly significant difference of NS patients from controls regarding NPHS2 rs3829795 polymorphic genotypes as the GA heterozygous genotype shows highly significant difference from controls (__P__ < 0.001) as well as GA + AA genotypes (__P__ < 0.001) in comparison with GG genotype. Regarding rs2274625, The GA heterozygous genotype showed no statistically significant difference betwe
