Preferred Label : Epidermolysis bullosa, junctional 7, with interstitial lung disease and nephrotic
syndrome;
Symbol : JEB7;
CISMeF acronym : ILNEB;
Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known;
Alternative titles and symbols : ILNEB; Interstitial lung disease, nephrotic syndrome, and epidermolysis bullosa, congenital;
Description : Mutations in the integrin alpha-3 gene are associated with disrupted basement-membrane
structures and compromised barrier functions in kidney, lung, and skin. Patients exhibit
a multiorgan disorder that includes congenital interstitial lung disease, nephrotic
syndrome, and epidermolysis bullosa. The respiratory and renal features predominate,
and lung involvement accounts for the lethal course of the disease (summary by Has
et al., 2012).;
Inheritance : Autosomal recessive;
Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the alpha-3 integrin gene (ITGA3, 605025.0001);
Laboratory abnormalities : Hypoalbuminemia; Proteinuria (seen in all patients); Decreased glomerular filtration rate (seen in all patients); Respiratory acidosis;
Prefixed ID : #614748;
