Clinical Trial Summary

Evaluation of Prevalence, Molecular and Genetic Backgrounds of Calcium-Based stones among Patients with Renal Calcular Disease in Mansoura Urology and Nephrology Center


Clinical Trial Description

Back ground: Nephrolithiasis is a prevalent disease with high morbidity, the incidence and prevalence of nephrolithiasis has risen worldwide. Calcium nephrolithiasis may be considered as a complex disease having multiple pathogenic mechanisms and characterized by various clinical manifestations. Both genetic and environmental factors may increase susceptibility to calcium stones. Polymorphisms of vitamin D receptor (VDR), calcium-sensing receptor gene (CASR) and AGXT have been associated with risk of urolithiasis, but, with inconsistent results and lack data from Egyptian population. Objective: Therefore, the present study aims to investigate the prevalence, mutational profile for these genes in patients with Ca-based stones, admitted to Mansoura Urology and Nephrology Center. Methodology: In this study, employing sequencing of the coding exons of the calcium-sensing receptor gene (CASR), vitamin D receptor (VDR) and AGXT for a 50 of Egyptian calcium kidney stone-formers and 20 control subjects. The results of the mutational profile data will be correlated with risk of stone recurrence over 2 years. ;
