Clinical and genetic spectra of autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease.


ABSTRACT: Autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease (ADTKD) is a clinical entity defined by interstitial fibrosis with tubular damage, bland urinalysis and progressive kidney disease. Mutations in UMOD and MUC1 are the most common causes of ADTKD but other rarer (REN, SEC61A1), atypical (DNAJB11) or heterogeneous (HNF1B) subtypes have been described. Raised awareness, as well as the implementation of next-generation sequencing approaches, have led to a sharp increase in reported cases. ADTKD is now believed to be one of the most common monogenic forms of kidney disease and overall it probably accounts for ∼5% of all monogenic causes of chronic kidney disease. Through international efforts and systematic analyses of patient cohorts, critical insights into clinical and genetic spectra of AD
