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

open access: yesFrontiers 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.

Prostaglandin Analogs and Eupatilin as Treatments for Nephronophthisis

open access: yesKidney International Reports
Introduction: Primary cilia (PCs) are sensory antennae that are present on the majority of quiescent vertebrate cells where they mediate key signaling during development and in response to environmental stimuli.

Opportunities for renal genetic evaluation among pregnant patients with kidney disease

open access: yesPregnancy, Volume 2, Issue 2, March 2026.
Abstract Objective Chronic kidney disease (CKD) can significantly affect pregnancy management and outcomes. Although up to 40% of adults with renal disease have an identifiable genetic cause, most pregnant patients with CKD do not undergo genetic testing, hindering tailored management during and after pregnancy. We assessed which pregnant patients with

High Concordance of Copy Number Variants Detected by Chromosomal Microarray and Exome Sequencing in Clinical Diagnostics

open access: yesClinical Genetics, Volume 109, Issue 3, Page 529-538, March 2026.
To assess the relevance of exome sequencing as a first‐tier diagnostic tool, three aspects were investigated: detection of copy number variants (CNVs) from exomes as compared to chromosomal microarray, clinically‐relevant CNVs across all sizes, and additional diagnostic utilities (uniparental disomy and triploidy).

Identification of a Novel Missense Homozygous Variant in LINS1 in Two Distinct Iranian Families With Consanguineous Marriage

open access: yesMolecular Genetics &Genomic Medicine, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
A novel homozygous missense variant in LINS1 (c.1354G>C; p.Ala452Pro) was identified in two consanguineous families with autosomal recessive intellectual disability, supporting the gene's role in neurodevelopment and its relevance in genetic diagnosis and counseling of ARID. Reported pathogenic LINS1 variants.

Nephronophthisis and related syndromes [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Pediatrics, 2015
Nephronophthisis (NPHP) is an autosomal recessive cystic kidney disease and is one of the most common genetic disorders causing end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in children and adolescents. NPHP is a genetically heterogenous disorder with 20 identified genes.

Abnormal Hearing Phenotypes in “Ignorome” Knockout Mice as Predictors of Cognitive Dysfunction

open access: yesGenes, Brain and Behavior, Volume 25, Issue 1, February 2026.
Using data from the International Mouse Phenotyping Consortium, we analyzed over 9000 knockout mouse lines to test whether sensory impairments predict behavioral abnormalities. Knockouts with abnormal hearing showed higher proportions of behavioral deficits, supporting hearing loss as a potential biomarker of cognitive vulnerability.

INF2‐Related Charcot–Marie–Tooth Disease in a Japanese Cohort: Genetic and Clinical Insights

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 13, Issue 1, Page 49-57, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Background INF2 mutations cause focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) and Charcot–Marie–Tooth disease (CMT). Accurate genetic diagnosis is critical, as INF2‐related FSGS is typically resistant to immunotherapy yet rarely recurs after transplantation, and its associated neuropathy can mimic treatable immune‐mediated disorders such as ...
