X-linked Alport syndrome is a hereditary progressive renal disease resulting from the disruption of collagen a 3a 4a 5 (IV) heterotrimerization caused by pathogenic variants in the COL4A5 gene. This study aimed to report a male case of X-linked Alport syndrome with a mild phenotype accompanied by an atypical expression pattern of type IV collagen a 5 [a5 (IV)] chain in glomerulus. A 38-year-old male presented with proteinuria (2.3 g/day) and hematuria. He has been detected urinary protein and occult blood since childhood. A renal biopsy was performed at the age of 29 years; however, a diagnosis of Alport syndrome was not considered. A renal biopsy 9 years later revealed diffuse thinning and lamellation of the glomerular basement membrane. A staining for a5 (IV) revealed a normal expression pattern in the glomerular basement membrane and a complete negative expression in Bowman's capsule and distal tubular basement membrane. Using next-generation sequencing, we detected a COL4A5 missense variant within exon 35 (NM_000495.5: c.3088G>A, p. G1030S). The possibility of X-linked Alport syndrome should be considered when negative expression of a 5 (IV) staining on Bowman's capsule was observed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
