Geneticky podmíněné faktory progrese vybraných forem chronických nefropatií. / Genetic factors of progression of selected forms of chronicnephropathies.

Nephrotic syndrome is characterized by proteinuria, hypoproteinemia, edemas and hyperlipidemia. It occurs in primary (e.g. focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, FSGS or minimal change disease, MCD) and in secondary glomerulopathies (e.g. kidney amyloidosis). In primary forms, great attention is paid to the potential genetic background of the disease and due to new molecular genetic methods genes, whose mutations cause different nephropathies (e.g. ACTN4 or INF2) were identified. The aims of presented doctoral thesis were following. Firstly, to continue the mutational analysis of ACTN4 that was described in the author's diploma thesis in other glomerulopathies. Secondly, to implement the mutational analysis of INF2 and subsequently analyse this gene in patients with FSGS/MCD and in patients from special group characterized by positive family history for end stage renal disease (ESRD) in combination with advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD) or already developed ESRD at the time of diagnosis. Thirdly, mutational analysis of NPHS2 and TRPC6 (methods implemented in laboratory earlier) in selected patients from the special group. Finally, expression analyses of genes important for podocyte function or connected with human immune system. This part also verifies the applicability of NPHS2/SYNPO expression...
