Background. There is substantial evidence for a genetic contribution to diabetic nephropathy susceptibility in the African American population, but little is known about location or identity of susceptibility genes.Methods. DNA samples were collected from 206 type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD)/nephropathy-affected sib pairs from 166 African American families (355 affected individuals). A genome scan was performed and data analyzed using nonparametric linkage regression (NPLR) analysis and ordered subsets analysis (OSA) methods.Results. In initial NPLR analyses no logarithm of odds (LOD) scores >2.0 were observed. Four loci had LOD scores greater than or equal to1.0, with LOD=1.43 at 29 cM on chromosome 7p the highest. NPLR analyses of multilocus interactions detected 6 loci (7p, 12p, 14q, 16p, 18q, and 21q) with LOD scores 1.15 to 1.63. NPLR analyses evaluating phenotypic interactions revealed multiple locations with evidence (P
