ABSTRACT
PKD2 gene variants account for 4.5% to 20% of patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). Little is known about the clinical characteristics of PKD2 variants in Chinese patients with ADPKD. Herein, we performed a comprehensive search for variants of PKD2 gene in 44 Chinese ADPKD pedigrees and a total of 37 variants were identified. Of these 37 variants, 18 were nonsense variants, 10 frameshift variants, 4 missense variants, and 5 splice site variants. 11/37 variants were detected for the first time. The median age at diagnosis was 30.5 years, and positive family history was detected in 77.27% patients, liver cysts in 68.18%, hypertension in 45.45%, nephrolithiasis in 31.82%, macro-hematuria in 22.73%, and proteinuria in 13.63%. The level of estimated glomerular filtration rate in 8/39 patients were blow 60 ml/min/1.73m2 . 11/17 patients were classified as rapid progression by Mayo Clinic classification. The end stage renal disease (ESRD) events were reported in 9/22 pedigrees, and the presence of nephrolithiasis and macro-hematuria were significantly associated with ESRD in the pedigrees with PKD2 variants. The identified variants and clinical features will facilitate the early diagnosis and prognosis prediction in Chinese ADPKD patients with PKD2 variants.
