Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: NPHS2 variants are the most common cause of steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome in children >1 month old. Missense NPHS2 variants were reported to cause mistrafficking of the encoded protein, PODOCIN, but this conclusion was on the basis of overexpression in some nonpodocyte cell lines. METHODS: We generated a series of human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines bearing pathogenic missense...
