Entrez Id: 4627
Gene Symbol: MYH9
MYH9
0.060 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE A region of chromosome 22 which includes APOL1 and MYH9 genes was recently identified as a risk locus for non-diabetic forms of kidney disease, including idiopathic and HIV-associated focal segmental glomerular sclerosis and kidney disease clinically attributed to hypertension among African Americans. 22956460 2013
Entrez Id: 4627
Gene Symbol: MYH9
MYH9
0.060 Biomarker disease BEFREE We tested whether Myh9 podocyte deletion predisposed mice to glomerulopathy in response to injury by doxorubicin hydrochloride (Adriamycin), and we found that Myh9 podocyte-deleted mice developed proteinuria and glomerulosclerosis, while control mice were resistant. 21402784 2011
Entrez Id: 4627
Gene Symbol: MYH9
MYH9
0.060 Biomarker disease BEFREE MYH9-associated nephropathies reside in the spectrum of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis/focal global glomerulosclerosis. 21074826 2011
Entrez Id: 4627
Gene Symbol: MYH9
MYH9
0.060 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE MYH9-related variants were posited to be the probable, but not necessarily the definitive, causal variants as a result of impressive statistical evidence of association, renal expression, and a role in autosomal dominant MYH9 disorders characterized by progressive glomerulosclerosis (Epstein and Fechtner syndromes). 20688934 2010
Entrez Id: 4627
Gene Symbol: MYH9
MYH9
0.060 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Although polymorphisms in the MYH9 gene on chromosome 22 are strongly associated with HIVAN, as well as with idiopathic focal segmental glomerulosclerosis and global glomerulosclerosis (historically labeled "hypertensive nephrosclerosis"), the majority of HIV-infected patients who are genetically at risk from MYH9 do not appear to develop severe kidney disease. 20005488 2010
Entrez Id: 4627
Gene Symbol: MYH9
MYH9
0.060 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE The nonmuscle myosin heavy chain 9 gene (MYH9) is associated with a spectrum of kidney diseases in African Americans, including idiopathic focal global glomerulosclerosis historically attributed to hypertension, idiopathic focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, and the collapsing variant of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis [HIV-associated nephropathy (HIVAN)]. 20051853 2010
