... ] reported point mutations in the actinin-4 gene (ACTN4) in three families with an autosomal dominant form of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis: the identified mutations (K228E, T232I, and S235P) were in close proximity, affecting the region between ABD and the R1 domain. These mutations increase...

...Joanna Marszal; Moin A. Saleem Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is a devastating form of nephrotic syndrome, often leading to end-stage renal failure after the failure of a succession of highly toxic therapies. It has long been thought to be caused by a circulating factor(s) that may...
