Clinical Information

Monogenic kidney disease spans a clinical spectrum of conditions with etiologies that can include structural, metabolic, immune, or endocrine abnormalities. Many heritable kidney diseases exhibit overlapping or complex phenotypes leading to a broad clinical differential. This gene panel assesses over 300 genes associated with a diverse spectrum of monogenic kidney diseases spanning the structural, metabolic, immune, and endocrine phenotypes. Assessing genetic etiologies across this phenotypic spectrum may aid in differentiating the genetic etiology of complex or ambiguous clinical presentations.(1-6)

 

Renal phenotypes assessed on this panel include: focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, nephritic/nephrotic syndrome, Alport syndrome, cystic kidney diseases (including polycystic kidney disease), nephronophthisis, tubulointerstitial disease, congenital anomalies of kidney and urinary tract, nephrocalcinosis, nephrolithiasis (kidney stones), renal electrolyte imbalances (including Bartter syndrome), C3 glomerulopathy, and complement-mediated thrombotic microangiopathy (CM-TMA; also known as atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome [aHUS]).

 

Many hereditary kidney diseases exhibit autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive, and/or X-linked inheritance. However, some hereditary kidney diseases exhibit complex or multifactorial inheritance. These complex and environmental etiologies are not assessed on this gene panel.

 

Several risk alleles associated with increased susceptibility to kidney disease are also included on this panel to aid in risk assessment:

-APOL1 Genotype: Two alleles, commonly called G1 and G2, have been associated with increased risk for development or progression of nondiabetic chronic kidney diseases.(7)

-CFH-H3 Risk Haplotype: The variants that comprise this risk haplotype are common in the general population, but in the context of additional pathogenic genetic and environmental factors, the presence of this risk haplotype is associated with an increased risk for development or progression of atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome.(8)

-MCP/CD46 Risk Haplotype: The variants that comprise this risk haplotype are common in the general population, but in the context of additional pathogenic genetic and environmental factors, the presence of this risk haplotype is associated with an increased risk for development or progression of atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome.(8)

-Finally, two variants in C5 (p.Arg885His and p.Arg885Cys) that are associated with poor response to eculizumab can be detected by this panel.(9)

Reference Values

An interpretive report will be provided.

Interpretation

All detected variants are evaluated according to American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics recommendations.(10) Variants are classified based on known, predicted, or possible pathogenicity and reported with interpretive comments detailing their potential or known significance.
