" /> Nephrotic syndrome, type 9 - CISMeF





Preferred Label : Nephrotic syndrome, type 9;

Symbol : NPHS9;

CISMeF acronym : NPHS9;

Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known;

Description : Nephrotic syndrome type 9 (NPHS9) is an autosomal recessive chronic kidney disorder characterized by significant proteinuria resulting in hypoalbuminemia and edema. Onset is in the first or second decade of life. The disorder is steroid treatment-resistant and usually progresses to end-stage renal disease requiring transplantation. Renal biopsy shows focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) or collapsing FSGS (summary by Ashraf et al., 2013). For a general phenotypic description and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of nephrotic syndrome and FSGS, see NPHS1 (256300).;

Inheritance : Autosomal recessive;

Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the AARF domain-containing kinase 4 gene (ADCK4, 615567.0001);

Laboratory abnormalities : Defective mitochondrial respiratory enzyme activity; Hypoalbuminemia; Proteinuria; Decreased CoQ10 levels in lymphoblasts or fibroblasts;

Prefixed ID : #615573;
