In conclusion, <i>NFKB1</i> rs28362491, <i>NFKBIA</i> rs2233406 and <i>NFKBIA</i> rs696 polymorphisms may serve as biomarkers for predicting risk of AKI in children.
Interestingly, multifactor dimension reduction analysis suggested an increased risks of nearly 6-folds for ESRD and 23-folds for ARE cases under the six factors model which consists of tag-SNPs of FOXP3 (rs2232365, rs3761548, rs5902434 and rs2294021) and NF-kB1 (rs28362491 and rs696).

In Caucasian patients, we identified associations between two SNPs and the incidence of AKI (stage 1 and above): rs1050851 and rs2233417; both are found within the gene for nuclear factor of kappa light polypeptide gene enhancer in B-cells inhibitor, alpha (NFKBIA).
Four putatively functional SNPs (NFκB1: rs28362491del>ins ATTG; NFκB2: rs12769316G>A; IκBα: rs2233406C>T and rs696G>A) were analyzed to evaluate their associations with NPC risk in total 1590 NPC cases and 1979 cancer-free controls.

Our findings prove that both single and combined genotype analysis of rs28362491 and rs696 polymorph</span>isms indicate that the wild genotypes of both two SNPs (ins/ins and AA genotypes) and ins/ins/AA combined genotype are strongly associated with enhanced risk of BD in a Turkish population.

Taken together, Our findings indicated that genetic variants in NFκB1 (rs28362491del>ins ATTG) and IκBα (rs696G>A) and their synergistic effect might contribute to NPC predisposition.
