A novel disease-causing mutation in the Renin gene in a Tunisian family with autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease

Autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease (ADTKD) is a rare group of disease that affect the tubules of the kidney. There are 4 known subtypes of ADTKD classified based on causative genes and clinical features. In our study, we aimed to identify the causative subtypes of ADTKD in a Tunisian ADTKD family (3 affected members), in whom standard nephrological diagnosis did not provide clear subtype of ADTKD, until genetic testing was...
