Hereditary Tubulointerstitial Nephritis

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Renal Cysts
Nephritis, Interstitial
Gout
Chronic Renal Failure
Interventions
Other: Blood and urine sample collections
Registration Number
NCT01312727
Lead Sponsor
Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris
Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to identify families with hereditary chronic tubulointerstitial renal diseases , characterize the phenotype and screen for mutations in known genesis (UMOD, REN, TCF2, NPHP1). Genome wide analysis will be performed in families without mutations identified.

Detailed Description

* Inclusion of affected subjects with familial history of chronic renal failure, early gout ,renal cysts in several hospital in France

* Characterization of the phenotype; dosage of the urinary uromodulin in all subjects

* Collect DNA samples

* Screen for UMO mutations first

* Then for REN or TCF2 depending on the phenotype

* Validate the use of the dosage of urinary uromodulin for the diagnosis of UMOD associated disease.

* Identify new genes responsible for hereditary HTIN (Hereditary Tubulointerstitial Nephritis).
