## Abstract Almost 90% of nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI) is due to mutations in the arginineβvasopressin receptor 2 gene (__AVPR2__). We retrospectively examined all the published mutations/variants in __AVPR2__. We planned to perform a comprehensive review of all the __AVPR2__ mutations/vari
Nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI) is associated with germline mutations in two genes: vasopressin receptor type 2 (V2(R)) in X-linked NDI, and the water channel aquaporin-2, in autosomal-recessive disease. Genetic heterogeneity is further emphasized by reports of phenotypically abnormal individua
