Glomerular disease: Novel candidate genes implicated in FSGS

Nature Reviews Nephrology 12, 256 (2016). doi:10.1038/nrneph.2016.30 Author: Jessica K. Edwards Genetic mutations in podocyte genes can increase susceptibility to focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS), but only a small proportion of patients have been identified who have a clear genetic basis underlying their disease. A new study from Haiyang Yu and colleagues describes the development of a
