The article presents data on steroid therapy of primary nephrotic syndrome in children. Unfortunately, to date, modern guidelines for the treatment of nephrotic syndrome are based on empirical recommendations, and among doctors there is great variability in the treatment of nephrotic syndrome, especially relapses and the choice of immunosuppressive therapy. The article provides data on the molecular basis of the steroids action in nephrotic syndrome and assesses the prospects for a personalized approach to therapy.
Key words: сhildren, primary nephrotic syndrome, glucocorticosteroids, polymorphisms, personalized therapy.
