Abstract:Background: Diabetic Nephropathy (DN) is the most common complication of diabetes mellitus. Interleukin 6 (IL-6) known as pro-inflammatory cytokine increases extracellular matrix expression and proliferation in DN progression. One single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of the Interleukin (IL)-6 gene, rs1800796 play a role in the progression of DN among Asian. Objective: This research seeks to investigate the correlation between IL-6 gene polymorphism (rs1800796) and diabetic nephropathy in individuals diagnosed … Show more
