Nephronophthisis 1; Nphp1

Description

Nephronophthisis is an autosomal recessive cystic kidney disease that leads to renal failure in childhood or adolescence. It is the most frequent genetic cause of renal failure in children. NPHP may be combined with extrarenal manifestations, such as liver fibrosis, situs inversus, or cardiac malformations. When nephronophthisis is combined with retinitis pigmentosa, the disorder is known as Senior-Loken syndrome (SLSN1 ); when it is combined with cerebellar vermis hypoplasia, the disorder is known as Joubert syndrome (JBTS1 ); and when it is combined with multiple developmental and neurologic abnormalities, the disorder is often known as Meckel-Gruber syndrome (MKS1 ). Because most NPHP gene products localize to the cilium or its associated structures, nephronophthisis and the related syndromes have been termed 'ciliopathies' (summary by Hoff et al., 2013).Clinical features of familial juvenile nephronophthisis include anemia, polyuria, polydipsia, isosthenuria, and death in uremia. Simms et al. (2009) provided a detailed review of nephronophthisis, including a discussion of clinical features and molecular genetics. Genetic Heterogeneity of NephronophthisisNPHP2 (OMIM ) is caused by mutation in the INVS gene (OMIM ) on chromosome 9q31; NPHP3 (OMIM ) is caused by mutation in the NPHP3 gene (OMIM ) on chromosome 3q22; NPHP4 (OMIM ) is caused by mutation in the NPHP4 gene (OMIM ) on chromosome 1p36; NPHP7 (OMIM ) is caused by mutation in the GLIS2 gene (OMIM ) on chromosome 16p13; NPHP9 (OMIM ) is caused by mutation in the NEK8 gene (OMIM ) on chromosome 17q11; NPHP11 (OMIM ) is caused by mutation in the TMEM67 gene (OMIM ) on chromosome 8q22; NPHP12 (OMIM ) is caused by mutation in the TTC21B gene (OMIM ) on chromosome 2q24; NPHP13 (OMIM ) is caused by mutation in the WDR19 gene (OMIM ) on chromosome 4p14; NPHP14 (OMIM ) is caused by mutation in the ZNF423 gene (OMIM ) on chromosome 16; NPHP15 (OMIM ) is caused by mutation in the CEP164 gene (OMIM ) on chromosome 11q; NPHP16 (OMIM ) is caused by mutation in the ANKS6 gene (OMIM ) on chromosome 9q22; NPHP18 (OMIM ) is caused by mutation in the CEP83 gene (OMIM ) on chromosome 12q22; NPHP19 (OMIM ) is caused by mutation in the DCDC2 gene (OMIM ) on chromosome 6p22; and NPHP20 (OMIM ) is caused by mutation in the MAPKBP1 gene (OMIM ) on chromosome 15q13.
