Objective Genetic and environmental factors have been implicated in etiopathogenesis and progression of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) and diabetic nephropathy (DN). Genetic association between interleukin‐10 (IL‐10) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with T2DM and DN was recently established. We aimed to explore the potential genetic risk of IL‐10 gene rs1518111 and rs3021094 SNPs in susceptibility to T1DM and DN. Research Design and Methods Cross‐sectional study included 140 T1DM children, of whom 74 had DN and 90 controls. IL‐10 gene rs1518111 and rs3021094 SNP were genotyped by polymerase chain reaction‐restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR‐RFLP) technique of the extracted genomic DNA from participants. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were applied to explore the association between IL‐10 gene polymorphisms and the risk of T1DM and DN. Results For rs1518111 SNP, AA genotype was associated with high risk of T1DM (OR = 4.53; CI = 2.11‐9.74; p < 0.001), while A allele was associated with high risk of both T1DM (OR = 3.35; CI = 2.20‐5.09; p < 0.001) and DN (OR = 2.36; CI = 1.27‐4.38; p = 0.006). For rs3021094 SNP, AC genotype displayed lower risk to develop T1DM (OR = 0.35; CI = 0.13‐0.94; p = 0.037), while A allele displayed higher risk to develop T1DM (OR = 1.69; CI = 1.11‐2.56; p = 0.013). GA and AC haplotypes of rs1518111 and rs3021094 had lower ORs for having T1DM and DN, while GC had lower OR for having T1DM. Conclusions AA genotype and A allele of IL‐10 rs1518111 SNP could be linked to increased risk for T1DM and DN among Egyptian children. None of rs3021094 genotypes or alleles displayed significant association with DN. GA and AC haplotypes could be protective against T1DM and DN susceptibility.
