Patient-derived and gene-edited pluripotent stem cells lacking NPHP1 recapitulate juvenile nephronophthisis in abnormalities of primary cilia and renal cyst formation [PDF]

open access: goldFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
Juvenile nephronophthisis is an inherited renal ciliopathy with cystic kidney disease, renal fibrosis, and end-stage renal failure in children and young adults.

Calpain1 inhibition enhances autophagy-lysosomal pathway and ameliorates tubulointerstitial fibrosis in Nephronophthisis [PDF]

open access: goldMolecular Medicine
Background Nephronophthisis (NPH) is classified under the category of renal ciliopathies and is the most common genetic disease leading to renal failure in children. Early-onset and progressive renal tubulointerstitial fibrosis represents one of the most

Renal Ciliopathies: Sorting Out Therapeutic Approaches for Nephronophthisis [PDF]

open access: goldFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Nephronophthisis (NPH) is an autosomal recessive ciliopathy and a major cause of end-stage renal disease in children. The main forms, juvenile and adult NPH, are characterized by tubulointerstitial fibrosis whereas the infantile form is more severe and ...

Phenotypic and genotypic analysis of pediatric nephronophthisis patients with different levels of proteinuria [PDF]

open access: greenRenal Failure
While nephronophthisis (NPHP) classically manifests as mild tubular proteinuria, emerging evidence reports nephrotic-range proteinuria with edema. This study aims to explore the phenotypes and genotypes of pediatric NPHP patients with different levels of

Nephronophthisis [PDF]

open access: greenJournal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2009
Nephronophthisis (NPHP), a recessive cystic kidney disease, is the most frequent genetic cause of end-stage kidney disease in children and young adults. Positional cloning of nine genes (NPHP1 through 9) and functional characterization of their encoded proteins (nephrocystins) have contributed to a unifying theory that defines cystic kidney diseases as

Nephronophthisis [PDF]

open access: yesChildhood Kidney Diseases, 2015
NPHP is the most common monogenic cause of CKD in children or adolescents. Extra-renal symptoms often accompany, therefore examination of retina, hearing, and skeleton is necessary in patients with CKD with insidious onset.
