Biallelic variants/mutations of IL1RAP in patients with steroid-sensitive nephrotic syndrome.

Nephrotic syndrome (NS) is a renal disease characterized by severe proteinuria and hypoproteinemia. Although several single-gene mutations have been associated with steroid-resistant NS, causative genes for steroid-sensitive NS (SSNS) have not been clarified. While seeking to identify causative genes associated with SSNS by whole-exome sequencing, we found compound heterozygous variants/mutations (c.
