Clinical features of autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease in the Japanese population and analysis of splicing in PKHD1 gene for determination of phenotypes. [PDF]
Abstract Background Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD) is caused by mutations in the PKHD1 gene. The clinical spectrum is often more variable than previously considered.

Identification of Two Novel Mutations in PKHD1 Gene from Two Families with Polycystic Kidney Disease by Whole Exome Sequencing. [PDF]
Background: Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is an autosomal recessive disorder resulting from mutations in the PKHD1 gene on chromosome 6 (6p12), a large gene spanning 470 kb of genomic DNA. Objective: The aim of the present study was to report newly identified mutations in the PKHD1 gene in two Iranian families with PKD.

The PKHD1 gene inhibits tumor proliferation and invasion in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma by activating the Notch pathway. [PDF]
Background: Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC), one type of highly malignant tumor, has a poor prognosis. However, the specific role of the polycystic kidney and hepatic disease 1 (PKHD1) gene in ICC has not yet been evaluated. This study aimed to investigate the potential function and mechanism of the PKHD1 gene in ICC.

Distribution and classifications of PKHD1 gene variants in a Turkish population using the next generation sequencing method. [PDF]
Background/aim: Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease is an inherited kidney disease. This study aims to detect rare and common DNA variants of the PKHD1 gene using next-generation sequencing (NGS) and to classify them in terms of being pathogenic according to The American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics.

Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD; MIM#263200) is a severe, hereditary, hepato-renal fibrocystic disorder that leads to early childhood morbidity and mortality. Typical forms of ARPKD are caused by pathogenic variants in the PKHD1 gene,

Refining genotype–phenotype correlations in 304 patients with autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease and PKHD1 gene variants [PDF]
Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD) is a severe disease of early childhood that is clinically characterized by fibrocystic changes of the kidneys and the liver. The main cause of ARPKD are variants in the PKHD1 gene encoding the large transmembrane protein fibrocystin.
