Overview
Pathophysiology
Physiology
Glomerular Basement membrane consists of laminin, Type 4 collagen, heparan sulfate proteoglycan and nidogen. Type 4 collagen is generally composed of Gly-X-Y amino acids rich in six alpha chains (alpha 1-6) that gives type 4 collagen a trimeric shape. The nascent GBM is made up of alpha 1 and 2 initially, then alpha 3-4 trimers are secreted after glomerular capillaries formation which becomes the major component of type 4 collagen and giving the GBM its stability.[1]
Pathology
Heterozygous mutation in COL4A3 and COL4A4 gene is responsible for causing autosomal dominant pattern of 40-50% of Thin basement membrane disease in which people have defective alpha 3, alpha 4 , alpha 5 chains. [1] And heterozygous mutation in COL4A5 gene in X-chromosome may cause Thin basement mamebrane disease in female.
Genetics
Thin basement membrane disease is an inherited pattern disease affecting successive generations. It may be due to-
- Autosomal dominant inheritance due to heterozygous mutation in COL4A3 and COL4A4 gene
- Heterozygous mutation in COL4A5 gene in X-chromosome causing Thin basement membrane like disease in female
- 'De novo' mutation.[2]
Associated condition
Condition associated with Thin basement membrane disease include:
- Alport syndrome
Alport syndrome is caused by homozygous or heterozygous mutation of both or either COL4A3, COL4A4 and COL4A5 gene, thus 36% of cases of TBMN with COL4A3, COL4A4 mutation are shown to be associated with Alport Syndrome.[3]
