INTRODUCTION: Hepatocyte nuclear factor 1-beta (HNF1B) gene variants or the chromosome 17q12 deletion (17q12del) represent the most common monogenic cause of developmental kidney disease. Although neurodevelopmental disorders have been associated with the 17q12del, specific genotype-phenotype associations with respect to kidney function evolution have not yet been fully defined. Here, we aimed to determine whether 17q12del or specific HNF1B variants were associated with kidney survival in a large patient population with HNF1B disease. METHODS: This was a retrospective observational study involving 521 patients with HNF1B disease from 14 countries using the European Reference Network for rare kidney diseases with detailed information on the HNF1B genotype (HNF1B variants or the 17q12del). Median follow-up time was 11 years with 6 visits per patient. The primary end point was progression to chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 3 (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] < 60 ml/min per 1.73 m2). Secondary end points were the development of hypomagnesemia or extrarenal disorders, including hyperuricemia and hyperglycemia. RESULTS: Progression toward CKD stage 3 was significantly delayed in patients with the 17q12del compared to patients with HNF1B variants (hazard ratio [HR]: 0.29, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.19-0.44, P < 0.001). Progression toward CKD stage 3 was also significantly delayed when HNF1B variants involved the HNF1B Pit-1, Oct-1, and Unc-86 homeodomain (POUh) DNA-binding and transactivation domains rather than the POU-specific domain (POUs) DNA-binding domain (HR: 0.15 [95% CI: 0.06-0.37), P < 0.001 and HR: 0.25 (95% CI: 0.11-0.57), P = 0.001, respectively). Finally, the 17q12del was positively associated with hypomagnesemia and negatively associated with hyperuricemia, but not with hyperglycemia. CONCLUSION: Patients with the 17q12del display a significantly better kidney survival than patients with other HNF1B variants; and for the latter, variants in the POUs DNA-binding domain lead to the poorest kidney survival. These are clinically relevant HNF1B kidney genotype-phenotype correlations that inform genetic counseling.

There have been few clinical or scientific reports of autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease due to REN mutations (ADTKD-REN), limiting characterization. To further study this, we formed an international cohort characterizing 111 individuals from 30 families with both clinical and laboratory findings. Sixty-nine individuals had a REN mutation in the signal peptide region (signal group), 27 in the prosegment (prosegment group), and 15 in the mature renin peptide (mature group). Signal group patients were most severely affected, presenting at a mean age of 19.7 years, with the prosegment group presenting at 22.4 years, and the mature group at 37 years. Anemia was present in childhood in 91% in the signal group, 69% prosegment, and none of the mature group. REN signal peptide mutations reduced hydrophobicity of the signal peptide, which is necessary for recognition and translocation across the endoplasmic reticulum, leading to aberrant delivery of preprorenin into the cytoplasm. REN mutations in the prosegment led to deposition of prorenin and renin in the endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi intermediate compartment and decreased prorenin secretion. Mutations in mature renin led to deposition of the mutant prorenin in the endoplasmic reticulum, similar to patients with ADTKD-UMOD, with a rate of progression to end stage kidney disease (63.6 years) that was significantly slower vs. the signal (53.1 years) and prosegment groups (50.8 years) (significant hazard ratio 0.367). Thus, clinical and laboratory studies revealed subtypes of ADTKD-REN that are pathophysiologically, diagnostically, and clinically distinct.
