Volume 108 Clinical and laboratory observations 7 2 9 Number 5, Part 1 may be involved in the different subtypes. Depending on the molecular properties Of such metabolites, a distortion of the charge-selective barrier of the glomerular capillary basement membrane, which depends on a normal content of heparan sulfate proteoglycans, may result. We speculate that this occurred in two of our seven patients with Hurler syndrome. The absence of proteinuria in the other five patients may reflect variation in the severity and extent of their disease. Morphologic evidence exists for such variation, because vacuolated podocytes were seen in four cases but not in the remaining three. Perhaps the heparan sulfate proteoglycan content of glomerular capillary basement membranes of all patients with Hurler syndrome is abnormal, but in only some is it severe enough to produce proteinuria and a nephrotic syndrome.
