Abstract excerpt
Fibronectin glomerulopathy (FNG) is a rare autosomal dominant inherited disease characterized by extensive deposits of fibronectin in the mesangium and subendothelial space of the glomeruli with membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN)-like pattern. Currently, ten exonic and one intronic pathogenic variants in the fibronectin 1 gene have been identified; however, genotype-phenotype correlation data are...
