Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Role of multidrug resistance-1 (MDR-1) gene polymorphisms has not been clarified in nephrotic syndrome (NS). Additionally, researchers studied several genetic polymorphisms to explain their influence on different patients' responses to steroid; however the data were inconsistent. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the association of MDR-1 gene polymorphisms [C1236T, G2677T/A, C3435T] and haplotypes...
