The recommendations include the use of genetic testing as the gold standard for the diagnosis of Alport syndrome and the demonstration of its mode of inheritance; the need to identify and follow all affected members of a family with X-linked Alport syndrome, including most mothers of affected males; the treatment of males with X-linked Alport syndrome and individuals with autosomal recessive disease with renin-angiotensin system blockade, possibly even before the onset of proteinuria; discouraging the affected mothers of males with X-linked Alport syndrome from renal donation because of their own risk of kidney failure; and consideration of genetic testing to exclude X-linked Alport syndrome in some individuals with thin basement membrane nephropathy.

In autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease 1) the genetic localization of the defective gene that causes type 1 disease has been narrowed to 500 to 750 kb on chromosome 16; 2) cystogenesis has been associated with increased cell proliferation, continuing cyst secretion, and a defect in cell polarity; however, the mechanisms by which the genetic defects in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease translate into cyst formation are unknown; 3) activation of the renin system has been reported as an important potential cause of hypertension; and 4) factors that influence the progression to renal failure have been identified.
