De novo Uroplakin IIIa heterozygous mutations cause human renal adysplasia leading to severe kidney failure.
Human renal adysplasia usually occurs sporadically, and bilateral disease is the most common cause of childhood end-stage renal failure, a condition that is lethal without intervention using dialysis or transplantation. De novo heterozygous mutations in Uroplakin IIIa (UPIIIa) are reported in four of 17 children with kidney failure caused by renal adysplasia in the absence of an overt urinary t...
متن کاملDe novo heterozygous desmoplakin mutations leading to Naxos-Carvajal disease.
STUDY/PRINCIPLES Arrythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy/dysplasia (ARVC/D) is an autosomal-dominantly inherited disease caused by mutations in genes encoding desmosomal proteins and is characterised by fibrofatty replacement occurring predominantly in the right ventricle and can result in sudden cardiac death. Naxos and Carvajal syndrome, autosomal recessive forms of ARVC/D, are charact...
متن کاملDe novo diabetes mellitus in kidney allografts: nodular sclerosis and diffuse glomerulosclerosis leading to graft failure.
Key words: de novo diabetic diffuse glomerulosclerosis; The patient's graft functioned well (mean serum creatinine of 124 mmol/l) and her fasting glucose was de novo diabetic nodular glomerulosclerosis; post-transplant diabetes mellitus; renal transplant normal (range 3.8–5.2 mmol/l) during the first 7 months after surgery. Immunosuppression consisted of cyclosporin 12 mg/kg/day and subsequentl...
متن کاملHomozygous SLC2A9 mutations cause severe renal hypouricemia.
Hereditary hypouricemia may result from mutations in the renal tubular uric acid transporter URAT1. Whether mutation of other uric acid transporters produces a similar phenotype is unknown. We studied two families who had severe hereditary hypouricemia and did not have a URAT1 defect. We performed a genome-wide homozygosity screen and linkage analysis and identified the candidate gene SLC2A9, w...
متن کاملDe Novo Mutations in CHAMP1 Cause Intellectual Disability with Severe Speech Impairment.
CHAMP1 encodes a protein with a function in kinetochore-microtubule attachment and in the regulation of chromosome segregation, both of which are known to be important for neurodevelopment. By trio whole-exome sequencing, we have identified de novo deleterious mutations in CHAMP1 in five unrelated individuals affected by intellectual disability with severe speech impairment, motor developmental...
