Nephronophthisis 3

An autosomal recessive disorder resulting in end-stage renal disease. It is characterized by polyuria, polydipsia, anemia. Onset of terminal renal failure occurr significantly later (median age, 19 years) than in juvenile nephronophthisis. Renal pathology is characterized by alterations of tubular basement membranes, tubular atrophy and dilation, sclerosing tubulointerstitial nephropathy, and renal cyst development predominantly at the corticomedullary junction.

Essential for primary ciliogenesis and embryonic development, facilitating the activation of Hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway. Disrupts the interaction of GLI2 and GLI3 with the negative regulator SUFU. Inhibiting SUFU's interaction with GLI2 promotes the entry of GLI2 into the nucleus, allowing it to activate Hh target gene expression. Disrupting SUFU's interaction with GLI3 prevents its conversion into the repressor form, leading to increased nuclear GLI3 and enhanced Hh signaling. Required for
