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.

BACKGROUND: HNF1B gene mutations are an important cause of bilateral (cystic) dysplasia in children, complicated by chronic renal insufficiency. The clinical variability, the absence of genotype-phenotype correlations, and limited long-term data render counseling of affected families difficult. METHODS: Longitudinal data of 62 children probands with genetically proven HNF1B nephropathy was obtained in a multicenter approach. Genetic family cascade screening was performed in 30/62 cases. RESULTS: Eighty-seven percent of patients had bilateral dysplasia, 74% visible bilateral, and 16% unilateral renal cysts at the end of observation. Cyst development was non-progressive in 72% with a mean glomerular filtration rate (GFR) loss of - 0.33 ml/min/1.73m2 per year (± 8.9). In patients with an increase in cyst number, the annual GFR reduction was - 2.8 ml/min/1.73m2 (± 13.2), in the total cohort - 1.0 ml/min/1.73m2 (±10.3). A subset of HNF1B patients differs from this group and develops end stage renal disease (ESRD) at very early ages < 2 years. Hyperuricemia (37%) was a frequent finding at young age (median 1 year), whereas hypomagnesemia (24%), elevated liver enzymes (21%), and hyperglycemia (8%) showed an increased incidence in the teenaged child. Genetic analysis revealed no genotype-phenotype correlations but a significant parent-of-origin effect with a preponderance of 81% of maternal inheritance in dominant cases. CONCLUSIONS: In most children, HNF1B nephropathy has a non-progressive course of cyst development and a slow-progressive course of kidney function. A subgroup of patients developed ESRD at very young age < 2 years requiring special medical attention. The parent-of-origin effect suggests an influence of epigenetic modifiers in HNF1B disease.

OBJECTIVE: To identify prenatal, perinatal, and postnatal risk factors for dialysis within the first year of life in children with autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD) as a basis for parental counseling after prenatal and perinatal diagnosis. STUDY DESIGN: A dataset comprising 385 patients from the ARegPKD international registry study was analyzed for potential risk markers for dialysis during the first year of life. RESULTS: Thirty-six out of 385 children (9.4%) commenced dialysis in the first year of life. According to multivariable Cox regression analysis, the presence of oligohydramnios or anhydramnios, prenatal kidney enlargement, a low Apgar score, and the need for postnatal breathing support were independently associated with an increased hazard ratio for requiring dialysis within the first year of life. The increased risk associated with Apgar score and perinatal assisted breathing was time-dependent and vanished after 5 and 8 months of life, respectively. The predicted probabilities for early dialysis varied from 1.5% (95% CI, 0.5%-4.1%) for patients with ARPKD with no prenatal sonographic abnormalities to 32.3% (95% CI, 22.2%-44.5%) in cases of documented oligohydramnios or anhydramnios, renal cysts, and enlarged kidneys. CONCLUSIONS: This study, which identified risk factors associated with onset of dialysis in ARPKD in the first year of life, may be helpful in prenatal parental counseling in cases of suspected ARPKD.
