X-Linked and Autosomal Recessive Alport Syndrome: Pathogenic Variant Features and Further Genotype-Phenotype Correlations
Alport syndrome results from mutations in the COL4A5 (X-linked) or COL4A3/COL4A4 (recessive) genes. This study examined 754 previously- unpublished variants in these genes from individuals referred for genetic testing in 12 accredited diagnostic laboratories worldwide, in addition to all published COL4A5, COL4A3 and COL4A4 variants in the LOVD databases. It also determined genotype-phenotype co...
متن کاملX-linked Alport syndrome: natural history in 195 families and genotype- phenotype correlations in males.
Alport syndrome (AS) is a type IV collagen hereditary disease characterized by the association of progressive hematuric nephritis, hearing loss, and, frequently, ocular changes. Mutations in the COL4A5 collagen gene are responsible for the more common X-linked dominant form of the disease. Considerable allelic heterogeneity has been observed. A "European Community Alport Syndrome Concerted Acti...
متن کاملGenotype-phenotype correlation in X-linked Alport syndrome.
Mutations in the COL4A5 gene cause X-linked Alport syndrome (XLAS). Understanding the correlation between clinical manifestations and the underlying mutations adds prognostic value to genetic testing, which is increasingly available. Our aim was to determine the association between genotype and phenotype in 681 affected male participants with XLAS from 175 US families. Hearing loss and ocular c...
متن کاملCharacterization of the peripheral retinopathy in X-linked and autosomal recessive Alport syndrome.
BACKGROUND Alport syndrome is an inherited disease resulting in kidney failure, hearing loss and ocular abnormalities. Alport syndrome is however often unrecognized, and the aim of this study was to characterize the associated but rarely described peripheral retinopathy and determine whether its demonstration was diagnostically helpful. METHODS Index cases were diagnosed with Alport syndrome ...
متن کاملGenotype/phenotype correlations in X-linked agammaglobulinemia.
No clear genotype/phenotype correlations have been established in patients with X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA). To determine if the specific mutation in Btk might be one of the factors that influences the severity of disease or if polymorphic variants in Tec, a cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase that might substitute for Btk, could contribute to the clinical phenotype, we examined the age at diagno...
