Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease in Toronto [PDF]
This study describes the Toronto, Ontario experience with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). Patients were divided into three groups: Group 1, 19 families studied with genetic markers; Group 2, 80 pre-dialysis ADPKD patients followed by Toronto nephrologists in whom the incidence of non-renal complications and the mean age of onset ...

Dual mTOR/PI3K inhibition limits PI3K-dependent pathways activated upon mTOR inhibition in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease [PDF]
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is characterized by the development of kidney cysts leading to kidney failure in adulthood. Inhibition of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) slows polycystic kidney disease (PKD) progression in ...

Identification of a DAGLB Mutation in a Non-Chinese Patient with Parkinson's Disease [PDF]
Liu et al. recently reported that biallelic mutations in DAGLB are responsible for autosomal recessive early-onset Parkinson's disease. They identified six patients carrying DAGLB mutations, all of Chinese origin and presenting with typical Parkinson disease.

Vasopressin regulates the growth of the biliary epithelium in polycystic liver disease [PDF]
The neurohypophysial hormone arginine vasopressin (AVP) acts by three distinct receptor subtypes: V1a, V1b, and V2. In the liver, AVP is involved in ureogenesis, glycogenolysis, neoglucogenesis and regeneration. No data exist about the presence of AVP in
