Summary

Renal transplantation is the treatment of choice for patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Calcineurin Inhibitors tacrolimus and cyclosporine are the principle immunosuppressive agents administered to solid organ transplant recipients to prevent and treat allograft rejection.

The aim of the present study is to detect the incidence of some selected genetic polymorphism in Egyptian renal transplant population and investigate the influence of these genetic polymorphism (SNPs )on Cyclosporine and Tacrolimus blood concentration. In addition to detect the association between these genetic polymorphism variants and patients' clinical outcome after transplantation.
