Abstract Background and Aims Nephrotic syndrome in childhood is characterized by proteinuria, hypoalbuminemia, edema, and hyperlipidemia. Although most children respond to glucocorticoid therapy, approximately 10% of patients turn out to be steroid resistant (steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome [SRNS]). Although several studies in children with SRNS have shown that mutations in genes encoding proteins in the podocyte skeleton may be responsible for the etiology in only one-third of cases, the genetic features related with renal prognosis and response to immunosuppressive agents are not fully recognized. The aim of this study was to investigate the genomic alterations associated with renal prognosis and resistance to immunosuppression in children with SRNS. Method The children with SRNS were enrolled in this study. Custom gene panel was designed for next-generation sequencing analysis of more than 20 target genes (ABCB1, ABCC2, CTLA4, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP3A4, CYP3A5, FOXP3, GSTP1, IMPDH1, IMPDH2, NOS3, NR3C1, SLCO1B1, SLCO1B3, TPMT, UGT1A9, UGT2B7) and 200 single nucleotide variants (SNVs) which were reported as implicated in renal prognosis of nephrotic syndrome. The target gene panel was enriched for drug metabolism regulating transporters and enzymes. Results A total of 25 children, 16 boys (64%), median age at last visit 17.5 years (13-18 years), median age at diagnosis 7.5 years (2-15), median follow-up 9.58±4.54 years, were included in the study. All patients were diagnosed focal segmental glomerulosclerosis on renal biopsy.

Chronic kidney disease of unknown etiology (CKDu) has been a problem in renal practice as indefinite diagnosis may lead to inappropriate management. Here, we report a 54-year-old father diagnosed with CKDu at 33 years old and his 8-year-old son with steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome. Using whole-exome sequencing, both were found to be heterozygous for c.737G>A (p.Arg246Gln) in LMX1B. The diagnosis of LMX1B-associated nephropathy has led to changes in the treatment plan with appropriate genetic counseling. The previously reported cases with this particular mutation were also reviewed. Most children with LMX1B-associated nephropathy had nonnephrotic proteinuria with normal renal function. Interestingly, our pediatric case presented with steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome at 8 years old and progressed to ESRD requiring peritoneal dialysis at the age of 15 years. Our report emphasized the need of genetic testing in CKDu for definite diagnosis leading to precise management.

Описан клинический случай пациент с нефротическим синдромом, стероид резистентный вариант, с артериальной гипертензией, осложненный полисерозитом (гидроторакс, асцит, плеврит). Пациент поступил в клинику в состоянии средней степени тяжести, с массивными отеками, полисерозитом, артериальной гипертензией и выраженным нефротическим синдромом. Диагноз: Гломерулярная болезнь. Нефротический синдром, стероид резистентный вариант. Функция почек снижена (СКФ- 84мл/мин по Шварцу). Двухсторонний экссудативный плеврит. Гидроторакс. Полисерозит (в рамках нефротического синдрома) был установлен на основании выраженного нефротического синдрома. Пациенту была проведена патогенетическая терапия. Отмечено улучшение состояния больного, в виде снижения отеков, нормализаций артериального давления, что в свою очередь поспособствовало сохранению и улучшению качества жизни пациента. A clinical case of a patient with nephrotic syndrome, steroidresistant variant, with arterial hypertension complicated by polyserositis (hydrothorax, ascites, pleurisy) is described. The patient was admitted to the clinic in a state of moderate severity, with massive edema, polyserositis, arterial hypertension, and severe nephrotic syndrome. Diagnosis: Glomerular disease. Nephrotic syndrome, steroidresistant variant. The kidney function is reduced (GFR - 84 ml/min according to Schwartz). Bilateral exudative pleurisy. Hydrothorax. Polyserositis (within the framework of nephrotic syndrome) was established based on the severe nephrotic syndrome. The patient underwent pathogenetic therapy. An improvement in the patient's condition was noted, in the form of a decrease in edema, normalization of blood pressure, which in turn contributed to the preservation and improvement of the patient's quality of life.
