Insulin-like growth factor-1 induces hyperproliferation of PKD1 cystic cells via a Ras/Raf dependent signalling pathway [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) largely results from mutations in the PKD1 gene leading to hyperproliferation of renal tubular epithelial cells and consequent cyst formation.

p21 is decreased in polycystic kidney disease and leads to increased epithelial cell cycle progression: roscovitine augments p21 levels. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
BackgroundAutosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a common genetic disease with few treatment options other than renal replacement therapy. p21, a cyclin kinase inhibitor which has pleiotropic effects on the cell cycle, in many cases acts

c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) signaling contributes to cystic burden in polycystic kidney disease.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2021
Polycystic kidney disease is an inherited degenerative disease in which the uriniferous tubules are replaced by expanding fluid-filled cysts that ultimately destroy organ function.

Embracing Sex-specific Differences in Engineered Kidney Models for Enhanced Biological Understanding [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
In vitro models play a crucial role in advancing our understanding of biological processes, disease mechanisms, and developing screening platforms for drug discovery. Kidneys play an instrumental role in transport and elimination of drugs and toxins.

Fetal polycystic kidney disease: Pathological overview

open access: yesJournal of the Scientific Society, 2013
Polycystic kidney disease is a rare developmental anomaly inherited as autosomal dominant or autosomal recessive. It is characterized by cystic dilatation of the collecting ducts frequently associated with hepatic involvement and progression to renal ...

Pediatric cystic diseases of the kidney

open access: yesJournal of Ultrasound, 2019
Pediatric renal cystic diseases include a variety of hereditary or non-hereditary conditions. Numerous classifications exist and new data are continuously published. Ultrasound is the primary technique for evaluating kidneys in children: conventional and high-resolution US allows a detailed visualization of renal parenchyma and of number, size and ...

Pkd2 dosage influences cellular repair responses following ischemia-reperfusion injury [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) results from mutations in either PKD1 or PKD2 and accounts for 10% of all patients on renal replacement therapy. The kidney disease phenotype is primarily characterized by cyst formation, but there are

Traumatic Kidney in a Patient With Unilateral Renal Cystic Disease

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Medicine High Impact Case Reports, 2022
Renal trauma occurring in patients with unilateral renal cystic disease (URCD) is extremely rare. Unilateral renal cystic disease is benign, nonprogressive, nonfamilial, nonencapsulated, and unrelated to cysts in other organs. It should be differentiated

Putative roles of cilia in polycystic kidney disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The last 10years has witnessed an explosion in research into roles of cilia in cystic renal disease. Cilia are membrane-enclosed finger-like projections from the cell, usually on the apical surface or facing into a lumen, duct or airway.
