Abstract. Familial juvenile hyperuricemic nephropathy (FJHN) is an autosomal dominant disorder heralded by hyperuricemia during childhood; it is characterized by chronic interstitial nephritis, with marked thickening of tubular basement membranes, and leads to progressive renal failure during adulthood. A gene for FJHN in two Czech families was recently mapped to chromosome 16p11.2, close to the MCKD2 locus, which is responsible for a variant of autosomal dominant medullary cystic kidney disease observed in an Italian family. In a large Belgian family with FJHN, a tight linkage between the disorder and the marker D16S3060, located within the MCKD2 locus on chromosome 16p12 (maximal two-point logarithmic odds score of 3.74 at a recombination fraction of θ = 0), was observed in this study. The candidate region was further narrowed to a 1.3-Mb interval between D16S501 and D16S3036. Together with the striking clinical and pathologic resemblance between previously reported medullary cystic kidney disease type 2 and FJHN occurring in the Belgian family (including the presence of medullary cysts), this study suggests that these two disorders are facets of the same disease.
