Identification of an NPHP1 deletion causing adult form of nephronophthisis

Abstract: This is the first report of determination of an NPHP1 deletion size using routine diagnostic methods. The results of this study expand the knowledge about the genotype-phenotype correlations in NPHP1, and have implications for genetic counseling and family planning advice for other affected families. This is the first molecular analysis of NPHP1 in an Iranian kindred.

“…The genetic analyses in our adult‐onset patient revealed a homozygous full gene deletion of NPHP1 , which is typically associated with juvenile nephronophthisis . Albeit rare, other similar patients of NPHP‐induced delayed/adult‐onset ESRD have previously been observed . More recently, 26 (0.5%) patients harboring a homozygous NPHP1 full gene deletion were identified among 5606 patients that underwent kidney transplantation .…”

“…3,4,8,9 Albeit rare, other similar patients of NPHP-induced delayed/adult-onset ESRD have previously been observed. [10][11][12][13] More recently, 26 (0.5%) patients harboring a homozygous NPHP1 full gene deletion were identified among 5606 patients that underwent kidney transplantation. 5 The average age at which these patients developed ESRD was 30 years (range, 18-61 years), and 54% of the patients were aged greater than 30 years at ESRD onset.…”

“…Moreover, HCL-V carried recurrent chromosomal abnormalities such as micro-deletion of chromosomes 2q13 and large chromosomal loss of 14q. NPHP1, locating at 2q13, complete deletion of this gene might cause nephronophthisis [32]. The contribution to tumorigenesis of this gene is not known.…”

“…However, as stated before in the description of the case, the CGH was initially ordered due to the neurological disability, without the knowledge of the chronic kidney disease, and later, when the patient was evaluated by our nephrology department and the diagnosis was clinically suspected, we decided to wait for the pending results, which confirmed our hypothesis. Further, an earlier paper by Haghighi 26 reports a family in which the diagnosis of NPH was made using CGH.…”
