Journal ArticleDOI

Relaxation of insulin-like growth factor II gene imprinting implicated in Wilms' tumour

TL;DR: The IGF2 gene is expressed from the paternal allele in human fetal tissue, but that in Wilms' tumour expression can occur biallelically, providing the first evidence that relaxation of imprinting may play a role in the onset of disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gene Expression Levels and Immunolocalization of Organic Ion Transporters in the Human Kidney

TL;DR: Results suggest that hOOAT1, hOAT3, and hOCT2 play predominant roles in the transport of organic ions across the basolateral membrane of human proximal tubules.
Journal ArticleDOI

Salt-sensitive hypertension in circadian clock-deficient Cry-null mice involves dysregulated adrenal Hsd3b6.

TL;DR: Type VI 3β-hydroxyl-steroid dehydrogenase (Hsd3b6) is identified as a new hypertension risk factor in mice and placed in a pivotal position through which circadian clock malfunction is coupled to the development of hypertension.
Journal ArticleDOI

Substrate specificity of MATE1 and MATE2-K, human multidrug and toxin extrusions/H+-organic cation antiporters

TL;DR: HMATE1 and hMATE2-K function together as a detoxication system, by mediating the tubular secretion of intracellular ionic compounds across the brush-border membranes of the kidney.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification and Functional Characterization of a New Human Kidney–Specific H+/Organic Cation Antiporter, Kidney-Specific Multidrug and Toxin Extrusion 2

TL;DR: Results indicate that hMATE2-K is a new human kidney-specific H+/organic cation antiporter that is responsible for the tubular secretion of cationic drugs across the brush border membranes.
