Mutations associated with Dent’s disease affect gating and voltage dependence of the human anion/proton exchanger ClC-5

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2015
Dent’s disease is associated with impaired renal endocytosis and endosomal acidification. It is linked to mutations in the membrane chloride/proton exchanger ClC-5, however, a direct link between localization in the protein and functional phenotype of ...

Albumin uptake in human podocytes: a possible role for the cubilin-amnionless (CUBAM) complex

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Albumin re-uptake is a receptor-mediated pathway located in renal proximal tubuli. There is increasing evidence of glomerular protein handling by podocytes, but little is known about the mechanism behind this process.

Functional and transport analyses of CLCN5 genetic changes identified in Dent disease patients

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2016
Dent disease type 1, an X-linked inherited kidney disease is caused by mutations in electrogenic Cl(-)/H(+) exchanger, ClC-5. We functionally studied the most frequent mutation (S244L) and two mutations recently identified in RKSC patients, Q629X and R345W.

Nephrocalcinosis – latest reports on risk factors

open access: yesPediatria Polska
This review synthesises recent discoveries in the risk factors of nephrocalcinosis, with a particular focus on novel findings. Nephrocalcinosis, characterised by the deposition of calcium salts in the renal parenchyma, is linked to a variety of genetic ...

Mutations in the CLCN5 gene in Japanese patients with familial idiopathic low-molecular-weight proteinuria

open access: yesKidney International, 1997
Familial idiopathic low-molecular-weight proteinuria (FILMWP) is a renal proximal tubulopathy that occurs predominantly in males. FILMWP is characterized by mild proteinuria consisting of low-molecular-weight proteinuria, aminoaciduria and relatively conserved renal function, but without rickets. To determine whether FILMWP is related to the CLCN5 gene,

Comparison between conventional and comprehensive sequencing approaches for genetic diagnosis of Alport syndrome

open access: yesMolecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2019
Background Alport syndrome (AS) is a hereditary disease caused by mutations in COL4A3‐5 genes. Recently, comprehensive genetic analysis has become the first‐line diagnostic tool for AS.

Mutations of CLCN5 in Japanese children with idiopathic low molecular weight proteinuria, hypercalciuria and nephrocalcinosis

open access: yesKidney International, 1997
The annual urinary screening of Japanese children above three years of age has identified a progressive renal tubular disorder characterized by low molecular weight proteinuria, hypercalciuria and nephrocalcinosis. The disorder has been observed in over 60 patients and has a familial predisposition.

Effect of growth hormone replacement therapy in a boy with Dent's disease: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports, 2011
Introduction Dent's disease is an X-linked recessive proximal tubulopathy characterized by low molecular weight proteinuria, hypercalciuria, nephrocalcinosis, nephrolithiasis and progressive renal failure.

Severe Osteomalacia with Dent Disease Caused by a Novel Intronic Mutation of the CLCN5 gene.

open access: yesInternal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2018
We present a case of Dent disease caused by a novel intronic mutation, 1348-1G>A, of the chloride voltage-gated channel 5 (CLCN5) gene. Cultured proximal tubule cells obtained from the patient showed impaired acidification of the endosome and/or lysosome, indicating that the 1348-1G>A mutation was indeed the cause of Dent disease.
