Hypertensive nephropathy (HN) and focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) are significant causes of end-stage renal disease (ESRD), but no genes or loci have been associated with this phenotype among African Americans, a group at high risk. We performed a genomewide linkage scan with ∼400 microsatellite markers on 23 individuals of a large four-generation African American family with 18 affected individuals (7 with ESRD), in which the 13-year-old proband (also with ESRD) presented with hypertension and proteinuria (2–4 g/day) and underwent a kidney biopsy that revealed FSGS-like lesions with arteriolar thickening. A genomewide scan revealed LOD scores of >2.5 for markers on chromosomes 3 and 9, and fine mapping was performed on 5 additional members (total 28 members) that showed a maximum multipoint LOD score of 5.4 in the 9q31-q32 region, under an autosomal dominant model with 99% penetrance. This 8-cM (6-Mb) region is flanked by markers D9S172 and D9S105, and further candidate gene sequencing studies excluded the coding regions of three genes (ACTL7A, ACTL7B, and CTNNAL1). To our knowledge, this is the first report of a locus, denoted as "HNP1," for the HN/FSGS phenotype in a large African American family with dominantly inherited nephropathy characterized by ESRD, hypertension, and some features of FSGS.
