What does this test Nephropathies Gene Panel identify?

  • APOL1 gene variants associated with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) and chronic kidney disease
  • COL4A3, COL4A4, and COL4A5 gene mutations linked to Alport syndrome
  • NPHS1 and NPHS2 gene mutations associated with nephrotic syndrome
  • Podocin gene (NPHS2) mutations associated with steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome
  • WT1 gene mutations linked to Denys-Drash syndrome and Frasier syndrome

Why is this test Nephropathies Gene Panel taken?

The Nephropathies Gene Panel test is taken to help diagnose and assess genetic conditions affecting the kidneys, known as nephropathies. These conditions can be inherited and may result in various kidney disorders, such as nephrotic syndrome, Alport syndrome, or polycystic kidney disease.

The test analyzes a panel of genes associated with different types of nephropathies to identify any genetic mutations that may be causing or contributing to the kidney disorder. This information can help healthcare providers determine the most appropriate treatment and management plan for the individual.

Overall, the Nephropathies Gene Panel test is used to provide a more personalized and targeted approach to diagnosing and treating kidney disorders based on a person's specific genetic makeup.
