Persistent severe hyperkalemia following surgical treatment of aldosterone-producing adenoma
Primary aldosteronism is one of the most common causes of secondary hypertension. This condition is characterized by autonomous hypersecretion of aldosterone which produces sodium retention and potassium excretion, resulting in high blood pressure and ...

mTORC2 critically regulates renal potassium handling [PDF]
The mTOR pathway orchestrates cellular homeostasis. The rapamycin-sensitive mTOR complex (mTORC1) in the kidney has been widely studied; however, mTORC2 function in renal tubules is poorly characterized.

A de novo SAMD9 variant G1048R is associated with MIRAGE syndrome symptoms in a neonate. SAMD9 G1048R's predicted tertiary structure has similarity to known MIRAGE variants. SAMD9 expression is increased in pediatric viral infection. Neonatal MIRAGE may lack immune deficiency and myelodysplastic syndrome.

Disruption of the with no lysine kinase-STE20-proline alanine-rich kinase pathway reduces the hypertension induced by angiotensin II [PDF]
Objective: The hypertensive effect of angiotensin II (AngII), a peptide hormone, is dependent on its intrarenal actions and the activation of the renal Na–Cl cotransporter (NCC), by AngII requires integrity of the with no lysine kinase/STE20-proline ...

Retrospective Evaluation of the Prognosis and Prevalence of Hyperchloremia in Dogs and Cats
ABSTRACT Objective To determine the prevalence, case‐fatality rate, and primary disease processes associated with high corrected chloride concentration (hyper[Cl−]) in dogs and cats. Design Single‐center retrospective study. Setting Electrical medical records were reviewed to identify dogs and cats with at least one chloride and sodium concentration ...

Gain of function mutants: Ion channels and G protein-coupled receptors [PDF]
Many ion channels and receptors display striking phenotypes for gain-of-function mutations but milder phenotypes for null mutations. Gain of molecular function can have several mechanistic bases: selectivity changes, gating changes including constitutive

Hyperkalemia in Clinical Practice, an Important Reminder of Testing Modality
ABSTRACT We describe a patient with hyperkalemia and ECG changes with persistent mild hyperkalemia without ECG changes following treatment. Their hyperkalemia was confounded by the presence of true hyperkalemia due to an acute kidney injury and pseudohyperkalemia due to significant thrombocytosis.
