      Molecular genetics of familial hematuric diseases 

      Constantinou-Deltas, Constantinos D.; Pierides, Alkis M.; Voskarides, Konstantinos (2013)
      The familial hematuric diseases are a genetically heterogeneous group of monogenic conditions, caused by mutations in one of several genes. The major genes involved are the following: (i) the collagen IV genes COL4A3/A4/A5 ...

      The role of molecular genetics in diagnosing familial hematuria(s) 

      Constantinou-Deltas, Constantinos D.; Pierides, Alkis M.; Voskarides, Konstantinos (2012)
      Familial microscopic hematuria (MH) of glomer-ular origin represents a heterogeneous group of monogenic conditions involving several genes, some of which remain unknown. Recent advances have increased our understanding and ...
