%X Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a common autoimmune disease marked by the formation of apoptotic debris and the presence of autoantibodies that target nuclear components. At this moment, the actual cause of SLE is uncertain. Genetic variables have been well proven to have a significant role in the propensity of SLE. This study aimed to investigate the effect of (ZNF76) rs (10947540) and (SCUBE) rs (1888822) gene polymorphism in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus. A case control study has been carried out at Medical Biochemistry & Molecular biology and Rheumatology unit of Internal Medicine Departments, Faculty of Medicine, Menoufia University, Egypt, for 1-year duration between 1 June 2022 and 1 June 2023. Sixty patients were females (75%) and twenty patients were males (25%). Their ages ranged from 19 to 53 years. Their disease durations ranged from 7 months to 20 years. The findings indicated that the TC genotype of the ZNF76 rs10947540 gene increases the risk of SLE by 2.274-fold, while the dominant TC + CC increases the risk by 2.472-fold, and the C allele increases the risk by 2.115-fold. Additionally, the results showed that the TT genotype of the SCUBE3 rs1888822 gene increases the risk of SLE by 3.702-fold, the dominant GT + TT increases the risk by 2.304-fold, and the T allele increases the risk by 2.089-fold, while the GT genotype increases the risk by 1.918-fold. The study revealed significant associations between the genotypes of these polymorphisms and certain clinical parameters in SLE patients. These findings highlight the potential genetic contributions to SLE susceptibility and its clinical manifestations, providing valuable insights for future research and potential personalized approaches to the management of this complex autoimmune disease.
