Cystinuria: an inborn cause of urolithiasis [PDF]
Cystinuria (OMIM 220100) is an inborn congenital disorder characterised by a defective cystine metabolism resulting in the formation of cystine stones.

Diversity of Phenotype and Genetic Etiology of 23 Cystinuria Saudi Patients: A Retrospective Study
Background: Cystinuria is an inborn error of metabolism that manifests with renal stones due to defective renal epithelial cell transport of cystine which resulted from pathogenic variants in the SLC3A1 and/or SLC7A9 genes. Among nephrolithiasis diseases,

Transient neonatal cystinuria [PDF]
Cystinuria is an inherited disorder of luminal reabsorptive transport for cystine and dibasic amino acids in the renal proximal tubule. Two cystinuria genes have been identified. Mutations of SLC7A9, which encodes the luminal transport channel itself, tend to be dominant and mutations of SLC3A1 (rBAT), which encodes a transporter subunit, are always ...

Report of SLC3A1/rBAT gene mutations in Iranian cystinuria patients: A direct sequencing study
Background: Considering a few studies on the genetic basis of the cystinuria in the Middle East and the population-specific distribution of mutations in the SLC3A1, we tried to find genetic variants in three exons (1, 3, and 8) of SLC3A1.

PATIENT SATISFACTION AND DIETARY OUTCOMES FROM ATTENDING A MULTIDISCIPLINARY CYSTINURIA CLINIC [PDF]
Cystinuria is a genetic disease that leads to frequent cystine stone formation. A reduced methionine (precursor to cystine) diet has been recommended for cystinuria patients, involving maintenance of healthy weight, limiting intake of animal protein and ...

Cystinuria is the most common genetic cause of recurrent kidney stones. As the result of a genetic defect in proximal tubular reabsorption of filtered cystine, increased urine levels of the poorly soluble amino acid result in recurrent cystine ...

Pharmacological interventions for the management of cystinuria: a systematic review
Background Cystinuria is a rare genetic kidney stone disease, with no cure. Current treatments involve lowering urinary cystine levels and increasing cystine solubility.
