TLDR
This is the first study that reports the long-term outcome of ARPKD patients with defined PK HD1 mutations, indicating that PKHD1 mutation screening is a powerful diagnostic tool in patients suspected with AR PKD.

Polycystic kidney disease.

TL;DR: An overview of the current knowledge of PKD and its treatment can be found in this paper, where the authors provide an overview of existing knowledge about the pathogenesis and treatment of polycystic kidney disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cilia and centrosomes: a unifying pathogenic concept for cystic kidney disease?

TL;DR: Protein–protein interactions among cystoproteins, and their strong evolutionary conservation, provide a basis for a multidisciplinary approach to unravelling the novel signalling mechanisms that are involved in this disease group.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clinical and molecular characterization defines a broadened spectrum of autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD).

TL;DR: A broadened spectrum for the ARPKD phenotype is indicated and that later presenting cases with predominant liver disease should be considered part of AR PKD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genotype–Phenotype Correlations in Autosomal Dominant and Autosomal Recessive Polycystic Kidney Disease

TL;DR: Variance component analysis in ADPKD populations indicates that genetic modifiers are important, but few such factors (beyond co-inheritance of a TSC2 mutation) have been identified.
Journal ArticleDOI

Monogenic causes of chronic kidney disease in adults.

TL;DR: In this multi-centre study of adults with CKD, a molecular genetic diagnosis was established in over one-third of families and whole exome sequencing (WES) may be an important tool to identify the cause of CKD in adults.

A Simple Estimate of Glomerular Filtration Rate in Children Derived From Body Length and Plasma Creatinine

TL;DR: Based on statistical analysis of data in 186 children, a formula was derived which allows accurate estimation of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) from plasma creatinine and body lenght and reveals excellent agreement with GFR estimated by the Ccr or Cin.
Journal ArticleDOI

Polycystins 1 and 2 mediate mechanosensation in the primary cilium of kidney cells

TL;DR: PC1 and PC2 contribute to fluid-flow sensation by the primary cilium in renal epithelium and that they both function in the same mechanotransduction pathway, suggesting loss or dysfunction of PC1 or PC2 may lead to polycystic kidney disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

A genomic view of alternative splicing

TL;DR: A community-based effort to discover and characterize alternative splice forms comprehensively throughout the human genome is recommended.
Journal ArticleDOI

Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia due to 21-Hydroxylase Deficiency

TL;DR: Prenatal diagnosis by direct mutation detection permits prenatal treatment of affected females with severe, classic 21-hydroxylase deficiency to minimize genital virilization, reducing mortality from this condition.
Journal ArticleDOI

The gene mutated in autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease encodes a large, receptor-like protein.

TL;DR: Genetic analysis of a rat with recessive polycystic kidney disease revealed an orthologous relationship between the rat locus and the ARPKD region in humans; a candidate gene was identified.
