Here, we report an exceptional PKD coincidence of thalassemia minor and AS (diagnosed genetically) in a large Chinese family. Whole genome next-generation sequencing (NGS) was performed on the proband, and all family members underwent clinical evaluation. Sanger sequencing was used to validate the mutations distinguished by NGS. The pathogenic potential of the variants were evaluated by Polymorphism Phenotyping v2 (PolyPhen-2), Sorting Intolerant From Tolerant (SIFT) algorithm, and MutationTaster. Immunohistochemical, Western blot, immunofluorescent, and TdT-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling (TUNEL) analyses were performed to investigate polycystin 1 (PC1) expression, and cell proliferation and apoptosis in kidney tissues from the proband and normal control. A novel frameshift polycystic kidney disease 1 (PKD1) mutation (c.3903delC, p.A1302Pfs) was identified to be responsible for renal disease in this family. PC1 expression, and cell proliferation and apoptosis were significantly increased in the kidney tissues of the proband. Moreover, a deletion of approximately 19.3 kb of DNA with \u03b1-globin genes (_ _SEA) was associated with thalassemia minor in the family. In addition, a collagen type IV \u03b1 5 chain (COL4A5) variant (c.2858G&amp;gt;T, rs78972735), annotated as a pathogenic mutation in dbSNP and human gene mutation database (HGMD), was found in four family members with no clinical traits of AS. A novel pathogenic PKD1 mutation (c.3903delC) and (_ _SEA) thalassemia deletion were found to be responsible for the clinical symptoms in this family. The reported pathogenic COL4a5 variant (c.2858G&amp;gt;T, rs78972735) was not pathogenic alone.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1042\/cs20170245","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,8,22]],"date-time":"2017-08-22T00:20:13Z","timestamp":1503361213000},"page":"2427-2438","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1042\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Genetic diagnosis of polycystic kidney disease, Alport syndrome, and thalassemia minor in a large Chinese family"],"prefix":"10.1042","volume":"131","author":[{"given":"Yun","family":"Miao","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Organ Transplant Department, Nanfang Hospital, Southern Medical University, Guangzhou 510515, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jun","family":"Xiong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Genetics, School of Basic Medical Sciences, Southern Medical University, Guangzhou 510515, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Xuelian","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Genetics, School of Basic Medical Sciences, Southern Medical University, Guangzhou 510515, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Huajie","family":"Huang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Genetics, School of Basic Medical Sciences, Southern Medical University, Guangzhou 510515, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Lixin","family":"Yu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Organ Transplant Department, Nanfang Hospital, Southern Medical University, Guangzhou 510515, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jianfan","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Genetics, School of Basic Medical Sciences, Southern Medical University, Guangzhou 510515, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Wenfeng","family":"Deng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Organ Transplant Department, Nanfang Hospital, Southern Medical University, Guangzhou 510515, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Huiling","family":"Xu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Genetics, School of Basic Medical Sciences, Southern Medical University, Guangzhou 510515, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Rumin","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Organ Transplant Department, Nanfang Hospital, Southern Medical University, Guangzhou 510515, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Chenglin","family":"Xiang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Central Laboratory, Southern Medical University, Guangzhou 510515, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Xiangmin","family":"Xu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Genetics, School of Basic Medical Sciences, Southern Medical University, Guangzhou 510515, China"},{"name":"Guangdong Key Laboratory of Biological Chip, Southern Medical University, Guangzhou 510515, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Fu","family":"Xiong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medical Genetics, School of Basic Medical Sciences, Southern Medical University, Guangzhou 510515, China"},{"name":"Guangdong Key Laboratory of Biological Chip, Southern Medical University, Guangzhou 510515, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"288","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,9,22]]},"reference":[{"key":"2021113010472708500_B1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"465","DOI":"10.1002\/wdev.152","article-title":"Kidney: polycystic kidney disease","volume":"3","author":"Paul","year":"2014","journal-title":"Wiley Interdiscip.
