Krithika Murali gene: WNT9B was added gene: WNT9B was added to Fetal anomalies. Sources: Literature Mode of inheritance for gene: WNT9B was set to BIALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal Publications for gene: WNT9B were set to 34145744 Phenotypes for gene: WNT9B were set to Renal agenesis/hypoplasia/dysplasia, no OMIM # Review for gene: WNT9B was set to AMBER Added comment: Now new publications since last PanelApp review Sept 2021 --- WNT9B plays a key role in the development of the mammalian urogenital system. It is essential for the induction of mesonephric and metanephric tubules, the regulation of renal tubule morphogenesis, and the regulation of renal progenitor cell expansion and differentiation. WNT9B−/− mice have renal agenesis/hypoplasia and reproductive tract abnormalities. Lemire et al. (2021) report 4 individuals from 2 unrelated consanguineous families with bilateral renal agenesis/hypoplasia/dysplasia and homozygous variants in WNT9B. The proband from Family 1 had bilateral renal cystic dysplasia and chronic kidney disease, with 2 deceased siblings with bilateral renal hypoplasia/agenesis. The 3 affected family members were homozygous for a Gly317Arg missense variant in WNT9B. Proband from Family 2 had renal hypoplasia/dysplasia, chronic kidney disease, and was homozygous for a Pro5Alafs*52 nonsense variant in WNT9B. The proband's unaffected brother is also homozygous for the nonsense variant in WNT9B, suggesting nonpenetrance. Sources: Literature |
