The angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) gene carries insertion (I) and deletion (D) polymorphism within its intron 16. The presence of D-allele in the ACE gene has been reported as a probable genetic risk factor for idiopathic nephrotic syndrome (INS), especially the subtype of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS). The D-allele may be related to poor responsiveness to steroid therapy. To clarify the relationship between the D-allele and INS, we studied the prevalence of the D-allele in the Javanese-Indonesian patients. Additionally, we also analyzed relationship between each genotype and steroid sensitivity among the MCNS patients.
