X-Linked Alport Syndrome Caused by Splicing Mutations in COL4A5 [PDF]
X-linked Alport syndrome is caused by mutations in the COL4A5 gene. Although many COL4A5 mutations have been detected, the mutation detection rate has been unsatisfactory. Some men with X-linked Alport syndrome show a relatively mild phenotype, but molecular basis investigations have rarely been conducted to clarify the underlying mechanism.In total ...

The most frequent cause of familial glomerular hematuria is thin basement membrane nephropathy (TBMN) caused by germline COL4A3 or COL4A4 gene mutations.

The oxidation of Lys residues in proline‐rich single‐stranded collagen by LOXL2, a key enzyme for tissue maturation and linked to diseases, was revealed. Oxidation occurs at rates comparable to or higher than those of Lys in unstructured telopeptides, the well‐known native sites of Lysyl oxidase (LOX) activity.

Alport Syndrome Classification and Management
Alport syndrome affects up to 60,000 people in the United States. The proposed reclassification of thin basement membrane nephropathy and some cases of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis as Alport syndrome could substantially increase the affected ...

Novel mutations in patients with X-linked Alport syndrome: Two case reports. [PDF]
Abstract Rationale: A genotype-phenotype correlation is known to be associated with Alport syndrome (AS). Identifying novel mutations can expand the knowledge about the natural course of AS. Patient concerns: The first patient was a-15-year-old boy detected with ...

Generation of two induced pluripotent stem cell lines from patients with X-linked Alport syndrome
Mutations in COL4A5 on chromosome Xq22 cause X-linked Alport syndrome (XLAS). In this study, we generated two human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines from two male patients carrying mutation c.796C > T (p.R266X) in COL4A5 gene.

Nephrotic Syndrome in a Child with Alport Syndrome: A Case Report and Literature Review
: Alport syndrome is a disorder affecting basement membranes in the glomeruli, cochlea, and eyes due to mutations in collagen IV genes (COL4A3, COL4A4, COL4A5).

Alport syndrome is an X-linked syndrome that results in nephritis, renal failure, sensorineural hearing loss, and eye deficits. As a result of sensorineural hearing loss, these individuals are likely to experience difficulties in the area of speech and ...
