| Disease ID | Source | Name | Description |
| 618177 | OMIM | Nephrotic syndrome 18 (NPHS18) | A form of nephrotic syndrome, a renal disease clinically characterized by severe proteinuria, resulting in complications such as hypoalbuminemia, hyperlipidemia and edema. Kidney biopsies show non-specific histologic changes such as focal segmental glomerulosclerosis and diffuse mesangial proliferation. Some affected individuals have an inherited steroid-resistant form that progresses to end-stage renal failure. NPHS18 is an autosomal recessive, steroid-resistant progressive form with onset in the first decade of life. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |
| 618349 | OMIM | Galloway-Mowat syndrome 8 (GAMOS8) | A form of Galloway-Mowat syndrome, a severe renal-neurological disease characterized by early-onset nephrotic syndrome associated with microcephaly, central nervous system abnormalities, developmental delays, and a propensity for seizures. Brain anomalies include gyration defects ranging from lissencephaly to pachygyria and polymicrogyria, and cerebellar hypoplasia. Most patients show facial dysmorphism characterized by a small, narrow forehead, large/floppy ears, deep-set eyes, hypertelorism and micrognathia. Additional variable features are visual impairment and arachnodactyly. Most patients die in early childhood. GAMOS8 inheritance is autosomal recessive. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |
