Alport syndrome: a genetically confirmed x-linked case with early family screening. [PDF]
Introduction: Alport syndrome (AS) is a hereditary nephropathy caused by pathogenic variants in the type IV collagen genes (COL4A3, COL4A4, or COL4A5), leading to structural defects in the glomerular basement membrane, cochlea, and eye.

ANCA vasculitis in a patient with Alport syndrome: a difficult diagnosis but a treatable disease!
Background Alport syndrome and ANCA-associated vasculitis are both rare diseases. The co-existence of these two conditions has never been reported. There is no obvious pathogenic link between these two glomerular diseases.

Anticodon-edited tRNA enables translational readthrough of COL4A5 premature termination codons.
Alport syndrome is caused by variants in COL4A3, COL4A4, or COL4A5, which encode the α3α4α5 chains of type IV collagen. These variants result in defects in the glomerular basement membrane (GBM) and impaired kidney function.
