DataSheet1_Identification of COL4A4 variants in Chinese patients with familial hematuria.pdf
Background: Benign familial hematuria and Alport syndrome are common causes of familial hematuria among children and young adults, which are attributable to variants in the collagen type IV alpha chain genes, COL4A3, COL4A4, or COL4A5.

Background: Mutations in the collagen components of the glomerular basement membrane (GBM) often lead to hereditary glomerulonephritis. Previous studies have identified that autosomal dominant mutations of Col4A3, Col4A4 or Col4A5 are associated with ...

Mutations in the COL4A4 gene in thin basement membrane disease [PDF]
Mutations in the COL4A4 gene in thin basement membrane disease.BackgroundPatients with thin basement membrane disease (TBMD) are often from families where hematuria segregates with the COL4A3 and COL4A4 genes.

COL4A4 variant recently identified: lessons learned in variant interpretation—a case report
Background Alport syndrome is a hereditary kidney disease characterized by hematuria and proteinuria. Although there have been reports of autosomal dominant COL4A4 variants, this is likely an underdiagnosed condition.

Alport syndrome (AS) is a hereditary nephropathy characterized by glomerular basement membrane lesions. AS shows a relatively rare entity with autosomal dominant gene mutation (accounts for less than 5% of AS cases) and is widely believed to be a ...

COL4A4mutation in thin basement membrane disease previously described in Alport syndrome.BackgroundCarriers of autosomal-recessive and X-linked Alport syndrome often have a thinned glomerular basement membrane (GBM) and have mutations in the COL4A3 ...

Novel variants in COL4A4 and COL4A5 are rare causes of FSGS in two unrelated families [PDF]
We report two female patients with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis and chronic kidney disease. The first patient was found to have a heterozygous, de novo, pathogenic variant in COL4A5 (c.141+1G>A, IVS2+1G>A), which is associated with Alport ...
