Digenic Inheritance in Cystinuria Mouse Model. [PDF]
Cystinuria is an aminoaciduria caused by mutations in the genes that encode the two subunits of the amino acid transport system b0,+, responsible for the renal reabsorption of cystine and dibasic amino acids. The clinical symptoms of cystinuria relate to

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.

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.

Metabolic consequences of cystinuria [PDF]
Background Cystinuria is an inherited disorder of renal amino acid transport that causes recurrent nephrolithiasis and significant morbidity in humans. It has an incidence of 1 in 7000 worldwide making it one of the most common genetic disorders in man ...

Urinary Cystine/Creatinine Concentrations Before and After Castration in Dogs With Suspected Androgen-Dependent Cystine Urolithiasis. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Androgen‐dependent cystinuria has been described in intact male dogs. Castration has been recommended to reduce urinary cystine excretion. Hypothesis/Objectives Urinary cystine/creatinine concentration will significantly decrease in dogs with suspected androgen‐dependent (Type III) cystinuria after castration and will be associated ...

Epidemiological Evaluation of Neuter Status, Sex, and Breed in Dogs With Cystine Uroliths. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background The majority of cystine uroliths occur in intact male dogs. Androgen‐dependent (Type III) cystinuria is considered the most common cause. Objectives Identify dog breeds in which castration is likely to decrease the risk of cystine uroliths, the potential effect of delaying castration on cystine urolith formation, and urolith ...

Gene Dosage Sensitivity and Human Genetic Diseases. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Here we review the historical background and contemporary insights into genetic dominance, focusing on haploinsufficiency (HI), that is, when the function of only one allele of a gene is not enough to ensure a normal phenotype in a diploid organism.

Cystinuria in Dogs and Cats: What Do We Know after Almost 200 Years?
The purpose of this review is to summarize current knowledge on canine and feline cystinuria from available scientific reports. Cystinuria is an inherited metabolic defect characterized by abnormal intestinal and renal amino acid transport in which ...
