Congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract (CAKUT) Nonsyndromic
Gene: LIFR
PMID2 38025229. Werfel et al 2023.
- cohort of 100 individuals with u/l or b/l CAKUT diagnosed within the first 1000 days of life with CKD stage 1-5D/T underwent WES, 58 known CAKUT genes analysed
- 27 LP/P variants identified in 25/100 patients
- Of these, 2 unrelated individuals with LIFR null variants, 1 individual had the same p.Val425Ilefs*2 (also denovo) originally reported in the index case from Kosfeld et al (28334964), and 1 had null variant with undetermined inheritance
- 2% diagnostic yield of LIFR variants in CAKUTCreated: 10 Jan 2025, 11:39 p.m. | Last Modified: 10 Jan 2025, 11:39 p.m.
