Abstract
- Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is a life-threatening inherited disease with a morbidity of 1:500–1,000 worldwide. Numerous progressively enlarging cysts are observed in the bilateral kidneys of patients with PKD, inducing structural damage and loss of kidney function. The present study analyzed one family with PKD. Whole exome sequencing of the proband was performed to detect the pathogenic gene present in the family. Candidate gene segments for lineal consanguinity in the family were amplified by nest polymerase chain reaction, followed by Sanger sequencing. One novel duplication variant (NM_001009944.2:c.9359dupA:p.Y3120_E3121delinsX) and one missense mutation (c.G9022A:p.V3008M) were detected in PKD1. Additionally, the pathogenic substitutions in PKD1 published from the dataset were analyzed. Following analysis and confirmation, the duplication variant NM_001009944.2:c.9359dupA:p.Y3120_E3121delinsX in PKD1, within the polycystin-1, lipoxygenase, α-toxin domain, was considered to be the pathogenic factor in the examined family with autosomal dominant PKD. Additionally, based on the analysis of 4,805 pathogenic substitutions in PKD1 within various regions, the presence of the missense mutation in the N-terminal domain of polycystin-1 may present high pathogenicity in ADPKD.
