Clinical and genetic characteristics of autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease in Oman
Background There is a high prevalence of rare genetic disorders in the Middle East, and their study provides unique clinical and genetic insights. Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD) is one of the leading causes of kidney and liver ...

Identification and Characterization of Pkhd1, the Mouse Orthologue of the Human ARPKD Gene [PDF]
PKHD1, the gene mutated in human autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease has recently been identified. Its translation products are predicted to belong to a superfamily of proteins involved in the regulation of cellular adhesion and repulsion. One notable aspect of the gene is its unusually complex pattern of splicing. This study shows that mouse

In a multicenter study of 692 patients with kidney disease, a 44‐gene panel achieved a 36% diagnostic yield. The 36% yield was not significantly lower than with larger panels or whole‐exome sequencing. A post hoc machine‐learning model identified key predictors to stratify patients into four risk bins (11%–74% yield), enabling more cost‐effective ...

Tissue-specific regulation of the mousePkhd1(ARPKD) gene promoter
Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease, an inherited disorder characterized by the formation of cysts in renal collecting ducts and biliary dysgenesis, is caused by mutations of the polycystic kidney and hepatic disease 1 ( PKHD1) gene. Expression of PKHD1 is tissue specific and developmentally regulated.

ABSTRACT Background TP53 gain‐of‐function (GOF) effects lead to cellular responses beyond the capabilities of wild‐type TP53 and are known to promote cancer progression, resulting in poorer outcomes in cancer. Methods A total of 486 patients diagnosed with non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with baseline DNA sequencing data were enrolled in our study ...

Sirenomelia in Twin IVF Pregnancy: A Rare Case Report
ABSTRACT Sirenomelia is a rare and fatal anomaly. It typically manifests as a partial or complete fusion of the lower limbs, along with genitourinary and pulmonary malformations. In the case of twin pregnancies, the occurrence is extremely low.

Cost-effective PKHD1 genetic testing for autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease
Genetic diagnosis of autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD) is challenging due to the length and allelic heterogeneity of the PKHD1 gene. Mutations appear to be clustered at specific exons, depending on the geographic origin of the patient.
