Popis: | Background Impaired deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) repair may induce an autoimmune response in susceptible individuals. The association between DNA repair gene XRCC1 Arg399Gln gene polymorphism and susceptibility of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is controversial. This study aimed to detect the association of XRCC1 Arg399Gln gene polymorphism with SLE and its clinical manifestations in the Egyptian population. Results A significant association was found between weight loss and genotype GG (P = 0.048); however, genotype AG was significantly associated with high serum creatinine and low C3 level (P = 0.039, P = 0.009, respectively). On the other hand, there was no significant difference between patients and controls regarding genotype and allele frequency. Conclusions An association was found between weight loss, high serum creatinine, and low C3 level and genotypes of XRCC1 Arg 399 Gln gene polymorphism. |
