Double homozygous missense mutations in DACH1 and BMP4 in a patient with bilateral cystic renal dysplasia
21 Dec 2012
Abstract excerpt
Renal hypodysplasia (RHD) is characterized by small and/or disorganized kidneys following abnormal organogenesis. Mutations in several genes have been identified recently to be associated with RHD in humans, including BMP4, a member of the transforming growth factor (TGF)-β family of growth factors.
