چکیده

We describe a paediatric case of nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI) with a novel mutation in the arginine vasopressin receptor 2 gene (AVPR2) in the absence of a family history of congenital polyuria. The patient, a 5-month-old Caucasian boy, had failure to thrive and hypernatraemia. On admission to hospital, he had a plasma sodium of 171 mEq/L with a concomittant urine osmolality of 131 mOsm/kg. Molecular genetic analysis demonstrated that the patient had an AVPR2 mutation (c.861C > G) resulting in a substitution of tryptophan for serine at amino acid position 167 (p.Ser167Trp). His mother was heterozygous for the same Ser167Trp mutation which was found to be de novo from the DNA analysis of the maternal grandparents.

A novel AVPR2 gene mutation of X-linked congenital nephrogenic diabetes insipidus in an Asian pedigree

Polyuria and polydipsia are the characteristics of congenital nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (CNDI). Approximately 90% of all patients with CNDI have X-linked hereditary disease, which is due to a mutation of the arginine vasopressin receptor 2 ( AVPR2) gene. This case report describes a 54-year-old male with polyuria and polydipsia and several male members of his pedigree who had the same symp...

Novel autosomal recessive gene mutations in aquaporin-2 in two Chinese congenital nephrogenic diabetes insipidus pedigrees.

Recent evidence has linked novel mutations in the arginine vasopressin receptor 2 gene (AVPR2) and aquaporin-2 gene (AQP2) present in Southeast Asian populations to congenital nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI). To investigate mutations in 2 distinct Chinese pedigrees with NDI patients, clinical data, laboratory findings, and genomic DNA sequences from peripheral blood leukocytes were analyze...

Novel de novo AVPR2 Variant in a Patient with Congenital Nephrogenic Diabetes Insipidus

Early diagnosis and treatment of congenital nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (CNDI) are essential due to the risk of intellectual disability caused by repeated episodes of dehydration and rapid rehydration. Timely genetic testing for disease-causing variants in the arginine vasopressin receptor 2 (AVPR2) gene is possible in at-risk newborns with a known family history of X-linked CNDI. In this st...

Analysis of a Novel AVPR2 Mutation in a Turkish Family with Nephrogenic Diabetes Insipidus

Congenital nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI) is a rare X-linked recessive disorder associated with germline mutations of the arginine vasopressin (AVP) receptor type 2 (AVPR2) gene. The researchers describe a novel mutation in the AVPR2 gene in a three-generational Turkish family with NDI. In the present report, a 22-year-old man is reported with polyuria and bilateral non-obstructive hydron...

Novel AQP2 mutation causing congenital nephrogenic diabetes insipidus: challenges in management during infancy.

Congenital nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI) is a rare inherited disorder, mostly caused by AVPR2 mutations. Less than 10% of cases are due to mutations in the aquaporin-2 (AQP2) gene. Diagnosis and management of this condition remain challenging especially during infancy. Here, we report two unrelated patients, a 6-month-old Thai boy and a 5-year-old Emirati girl, with a history of failure ...
