Our study highlights five variants: c.42+35G>A (IVS1+35G>A) (rs8192340) and c.43-21T>C (IVS1-21T>C) (rs13248346) in intron 1, c.436-8C>G (IVS4-8C>G) (rs2070687) in intron 4, c.413C>A p.T138N (rs4715) in exon 4, and c.557G>Ap.S186N (rs1124) in exon 5 within SFTPC gene that were all associated with interstitial lung disease (ILD) in Egyptian children. Here, SFTPC is linked to interstitial lung disease.
