Prenatal diagnosis of cystinuria with a heterozygous pathogenic variant in SLC7A9 gene associated with isolated hyperechogenic fetal kidneys: A case report [PDF]
Key Clinical Message Cystinuria is suspected antenatally by a hyperechogenic fetal colonic content. We report the first prenatal case of autosomal dominant SLC7A9‐related cystinuria associated with isolated hyperechogenic kidneys as the only prenatal ...

Clinical Course and Mutational Analysis of Patients with Cystine Stone: A Single-Center Experience [PDF]
Cystinuria is a known genetic disorder. To date, two genes, SLC3A1 and SLC7A9, have been identified as causes of cystinuria. In this study of 10 patients with cystinuria, which is the largest Korean cohort ever studied, we examined the patients ...

Novel compound heterozygous pathogenic variants in the SLC3A1 gene in a Chinese family with cystinuria [PDF]
Background Cystinuria is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by a cystine transport deficiency in the renal tubules due to mutations in two genes: SLC3A1 and SLC7A9.

Genetic and clinical characteristics of Japanese cystinuria with exon and exon–intron boundary variants [PDF]
Cystinuria is the most common genetic cause of urinary stones. Defects in SLC3A1/SLC7A9 genes coding cystine transporter proteins rBAT/b0,+AT will cause Cystinuria. The current work analyzed the clinical and genetic characteristics of Japanese Cystinuria

Partial correction of cystinuria type A in mice via kidney-targeted transposon delivery [PDF]
We used kidney-targeted, non-viral, transposon-mediated gene delivery to express the mouse Slc3a1 transgene in one kidney of cystinuria type A (Slc3a1−/−) mice.

Outcomes of Tiopronin and D-Penicillamine Therapy in Pediatric Cystinuria: A Clinical Comparison of Two Cases [PDF]
Background and Clinical Significance: Cystinuria is the most common genetic cause of pediatric nephrolithiasis, characterized by impaired renal cystine reabsorption and resulting in increased urinary cystine excretion.

Mitochondrial SLC3A1 regulates sexual dimorphism in cystinuria [PDF]
Cystinuria is the most common inheritable cause of kidney stone disease, with males exhibiting a higher susceptibility than females. However, the cellular origin and underlying mechanisms of sex differences in cystinuria remain elusive.

Typical course of cystinuria leading to untypical complications in pregnancy: A case report and review of literature [PDF]
Cystinuria is a rare genetic disorder inherited by an autosomal recessive pattern which affects the transmembrane transporter for the base amino acid cystine. It has a general prevalence of 1 in 7000 with demographic variations.
