Diabetic nephropathy is a major cause of end-stage renal disease. Micro albuminuria is a term to describe a moderate
increase in the level of urine albumin. It occurs when the kidney leaks mall amounts of albumin into the urine . The
aim of this study was to investigate the influence of the C677T and A1298C polymorphisms of methylene
tetrahydrofolate on the progression of chronic kidney disease in diabetic nephropathy of Iraqi patients to delay the
deterioration in renal function. A hospital-based case-control study was performed. A total of 60 patients with
diabetic nephropathy age (24-87) and 60 controls age(16-68) selected from nephrology center in Bagdad Teaching
Hospital /Medical City from December 2017 until the end of August 2018,the result shows mean differences of study
markers including ( FBS, Blood urea, Serum creatinine and MTHFR) according to type of albuminuria (micro
albuminuria and macro albuminuria) among patients with diabetic nephropathy. There were significant differences
between means of Blood urea and Serum creatinine according to study group. in result conclusion Urinary
biomarkers were significantly elevated in normoalbuminuric type 2 diabetic patients compared with nondiabetic
control subjects and could be used as markers of diabetic nephropathy( DN) at a very early stage even before the
development of micro albuminuria.
