Patient-derived and gene-edited pluripotent stem cells lacking NPHP1 recapitulate juvenile nephronophthisis in abnormalities of primary cilia and renal cyst formation [PDF]
Juvenile nephronophthisis is an inherited renal ciliopathy with cystic kidney disease, renal fibrosis, and end-stage renal failure in children and young adults.

Autosomal recessive whole gene deletions of nephrocystin-1 (NPHP1) result in abnormal structure and function of the primary cilia. These deletions can result in a tubulointerstitial kidney disease known as nephronophthisis and retinal (Senior–Løken ...

Urinary renal epithelial cells can be used for NPHP1 phenotyping and a personalized therapeutic strategy. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Nephronophthisis (NPHP) is a recessive tubulointerstitial nephropathy and a leading genetic cause of kidney failure in children and young adults. The most common genetic cause is a homozygous deletion of NPHP1, which encodes nephrocystin-1, a protein essential for primary cilium structure and cell junctions.

A case report of NPHP1 deletion in Chinese twins with nephronophthisis [PDF]
Background Nephronophthisis (NPHP) is a rare autosomal recessive inherited disorder with high heterogeneity. The majority of NPHP patients progress to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) within the first three decades of life.

An Nphp1 knockout mouse model targeting exon 2–20 demonstrates characteristic phenotypes of human nephronophthisis [PDF]
Abstract Nephronophthisis (NPH) is the most prevalent monogenetic disorder leading to end-stage renal failure (ESRD) in childhood. Mutations in Nphp1, encoding a cilia-localized protein, account for the majority of NPH cases. Despite its identification many years ago, Nphp1 deletions targeting exon 4 or exon 20 have not reproduced the ...

NPHP1 gene deletion is a rare cause of Joubert syndrome related disorders [PDF]
Joubert syndrome (JS) is an autosomal recessive disorder presenting with congenital hypotonia evolving into ataxia, developmental delay, and either oculomotor apraxia or abnormalities of respiratory pattern or both. JS is characterised, using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), by cerebellar vermian hypoplasia and a complex brain stem malformation called

Identification of renal cyst cells of type I Nephronophthisis by single-nucleus RNA sequencing [PDF]
Background: Nephronophthisis (NPH) is the most common genetic cause of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in childhood, and NPHP1 is the major pathogenic gene.

NPHP1 (Nephrocystin-1) Gene Deletions Cause Adult-Onset ESRD [PDF]
Background Nephronophthisis (NPH) is the most prevalent genetic cause for ESRD in children. However, little is known about the prevalence of NPH in adult-onset ESRD. Homozygous full gene deletions of the NPHP1 gene encoding nephrocystin-1 are a prominent cause of NPH.
