Co-occurrence of neurofibromatosis type 1 and optic nerve gliomas with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease type 2.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) and neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) are both autosomal dominant disorders with a high rate of novel mutations. However, the two disorders have distinct and well-delineated genetic, biochemical, and clinical findings. Only a few cases of coexistence of ADPKD and NF1 in a single individual have been reported, but the possible implications of this association are unknown. METHODS:We report an ADPKD male belonging to a family of several affected members in three generations associated with NF1 and optic pathway gliomas. The clinical diagnosis of ADPKD and NF1 was performed by several image techniques. RESULTS:Linkage analysis of ADPKD family was consistent to the PKD2 locus by a nonsense mutation, yielding a truncated polycystin-2 by means of next-generation sequencing. The diagnosis of NF1 was confirmed by mutational analysis of this gene showing a 4-bp deletion, resulting in a truncated neurofibromin, as well. The impact of this association was investigated by analyzing putative genetic interactions and by comparing the evolution of renal size and function in the proband with his older brother with ADPKD without NF1 and with ADPKD cohorts. CONCLUSION:Despite the presence of both conditions there was not additive effect of NF1 and PKD2 in terms of the severity of tumor development and/or ADPKD progression.

Project description:Hypertension is common in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) and is associated with increased total kidney volume, activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, and progression of kidney disease.In this double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, we randomly assigned 558 hypertensive participants with ADPKD (15 to 49 years of age, with an estimated glomerular filtration rate [GFR] >60 ml per minute per 1.73 m(2) of body-surface area) to either a standard blood-pressure target (120/70 to 130/80 mm Hg) or a low blood-pressure target (95/60 to 110/75 mm Hg) and to either an angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitor (lisinopril) plus an angiotensin-receptor blocker (telmisartan) or lisinopril plus placebo. The primary outcome was the annual percentage change in the total kidney volume.The annual percentage increase in total kidney volume was significantly lower in the low-blood-pressure group than in the standard-blood-pressure group (5.6% vs. 6.6%, P=0.006), without significant differences between the lisinopril-telmisartan group and the lisinopril-placebo group. The rate of change in estimated GFR was similar in the two medication groups, with a negative slope difference in the short term in the low-blood-pressure group as compared with the standard-blood-pressure group (P<0.001) and a marginally positive slope difference in the long term (P=0.05). The left-ventricular-mass index decreased more in the low-blood-pressure group than in the standard-blood-pressure group (-1.17 vs. -0.57 g per square meter per year, P<0.001); urinary albumin excretion was reduced by 3.77% with the low-pressure target and increased by 2.43% with the standard target (P<0.001). Dizziness and light-headedness were more common in the low-blood-pressure group than in the standard-blood-pressure group (80.7% vs. 69.4%, P=0.002).In early ADPKD, the combination of lisinopril and telmisartan did not significantly alter the rate of increase in total kidney volume. As compared with standard blood-pressure control, rigorous blood-pressure control was associated with a slower increase in total kidney volume, no overall change in the estimated GFR, a greater decline in the left-ventricular-mass index, and greater reduction in urinary albumin excretion.
