Mutations in theCOL4A4 and COL4A3 Genes Cause Familial Benign Hematuria [PDF]
ABSTRACT. Familial benign hematuria (FBH) is a common autosomal dominant disorder characterized by the presence of persistent or recurrent hematuria. The clinical and pathologic features of this syndrome resemble those of early Alport syndrome (AS), and for this reason a common molecular defect has been proposed.

Clinical Insights Into the COL4A3 p.Gly407Arg Variant in Alport Syndrome. [PDF]
Background: Alport syndrome is a hereditary nephropathy caused by pathogenic variants in the COL4A3, COL4A4 , or COL4A5 genes, encoding type IV collagen chains that are essential for glomerular basement

X-Linked and Autosomal Recessive Alport Syndrome: Pathogenic Variant Features and Further Genotype-Phenotype Correlations. [PDF]
Alport syndrome results from mutations in the COL4A5 (X-linked) or COL4A3/COL4A4 (recessive) genes. This study examined 754 previously- unpublished variants in these genes from individuals referred for genetic testing in 12 accredited diagnostic ...

A case of mild phenotype Alport syndrome caused by COL4A3 mutations [PDF]
In a case of 41-year-old man with mild nephropathy, Alport syndrome (AS) was diagnosed from the renal biopsy. However, the α5 chain of type IV collagen expressed in the glomerular basement membrane, which was the atypical staining pattern of AS. Genetic testing suggested autosomal recessive AS from heterozygous mutations at two positions in the type IV

Possible digenic disease in a caucasian family with COL4A3 and COL4A5 mutations [PDF]
Microscopic hematuria is a common feature of patients with Alport syndrome, a familial nephropathy due to mutations in COL4A3, COL4A4 or COL4A5. These genes encode for α3, α4, and α5 type IV collagen polypeptide chains (collagen IV α345), crucial for the

Polymorphisms in COL4A3 and COL4A4 genes associated with keratoconus.
Alterations in collagen type IV, alpha-3 (COL4A3) and collagen type IV, alpha-4 (COL4A4) genes may be responsible for a decrease in collagen types I and III, a feature often detected in keratoconus (KC). To evaluate the significance of alterations in COL4A3 and COL4A4 genes in KC patients, we screened both genes and estimated the significance of ...
