In this commentary, I review recent advances in Alport syndrome genetics, diagnostics, and therapeutics. I also offer some opinions regarding strategies to optimize the early identification of affected individuals to promote early therapeutic intervention.
BACKGROUND Female carriers of X-linked Alport syndrome (XLAS) demonstrate variability in clinical phenotype that, unlike males, cannot be correlated with genotype. X-inactivation, the method by which females (XX) silence transcription from one X chromosome in order to achieve gene dosage parity with males (XY), likely modifies the carrier phenotype, but this hypothesis has not been tested direc...
Posttransplant antiglomerular basement membrane (anti-GBM) disease occurs in approximately 5% of Alport patients and usually ends in irreversible graft failure. Recent research has focused on characterizing the structure of the anti-GBM alloepitope. Here we present a case of a 22-year-old male with end-stage renal disease secondary to Alport syndrome, with a previously failed renal allograft, w...
Alport syndrome is a hereditary nephropathy that results in irreversible, progressive renal failure. Recent reports suggested that bone marrow transplantation (BMT) has a beneficial, short-term effect on renal injury in Alport (Col4a3(-/-)) mice, but its long-term effects, especially with regard to survival, are unknown. In this study, Alport mice received a transplant of either wild-type or Co...
X linked Alport syndrome (ATS, OMIM 301050) is a hereditary glomerulonephritis resulting from either point mutations or intragenic deletions of the COL4A5 gene encoding the α5 chain of type IV collagen. Contiguous gene syndromes are phenotypically complex disorders associated with the deletion of multiple adjacent genes. There are several examples of such syndromes on the X chromosome. 5 Until ...
Alport syndrome (AS) is a genetic disease characterized by haematuric glomerulopathy variably associated with hearing loss and anterior lenticonus. It is caused by mutations in the COL4A3, COL4A4 or COL4A5 genes encoding the α3α4α5(IV) collagen heterotrimer. AS is rare, but it accounts for >1% of patients receiving renal replacement therapy. Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibition slows, but d...
Alport syndrome (AS) is a progressive renal disease that is characterised by hematuria and progressive renal failure, and often accompanied by progressive high-tone sensorineural hearing loss and ocular changes in form of macular flecks and lenticonus. AS is a genetic heterogenous disease, and X-linked dominant in about 85% of the families. The autosomal recessive and dominant forms constitute ...
