Abstract excerpt
Steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome (SRNS) in childhood frequently reflects monogenic podocytopathies in which immunosuppression is ineffective. Biallelic variants in MYO1E, encoding the class I myosin Myo1E, cause a distinctive form of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) often accompanied by "Alport-like" multilamination of the glomerular basement membrane (GBM). Early recognition has therapeutic and...
