Identification of novel PKD1 and PKD2 mutations in Korean patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease

Abstract: BackgroundAutosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most common inherited kidney disorder. It is caused by mutations in the PKD1 and PKD2 genes, and manifests as progressive cyst growth and renal enlargement, resulting in renal failure. Although there have been a few studies on the frequency and spectrum of mutations in PKD1 and PKD2 in Korean patients with ADPKD, only exons 36–46, excluding the duplicated region, were analyzed, which makes it difficult to determine accurate mutation frequenc… Show more

“…Given the reduced cost of gene sequencing, such as targeted NGS, and the increasing number ADPKD patients whose phenotype is known, bringing PKD mutation types to clinical practice will likely reduce the economic cost of disease and reduce monitoring in patients destined to be symptom free while proactively increasing preventive monitoring for patients at high risk for progressive renal disease. In addition, defining the genetic mutation in ADPKD will better define the appropriate patient population for randomized clinical trials and develop new rationales for treatment using the molecular information obtained from locus and mutation detection810111213141516171819202122232425262728.…”

“…These studies [13][14][15][16][17][18] further promoted the gene diagnosis technology development and progress of ADPKD. Thus, more and more studies about gene diagnosis of ADPKD provide more possibility for us to the early diagnosis of ADPKD.…”

“…A few unique characteristics of the Asian ADPKD population have been noted in previous studies. About 50%–80% of genetic mutations in the PKD1 or PKD2 gene of the Asian population were novel compared with a previous genetic mutation database based on the Western population 6–8. In addition, differences in genetic background, race, climate, culture and lifestyle of the Asian population can also affect disease progression differently.…”
