mTOR signaling in renal ion transport

open access: yesActa Physiologica, Volume 238, Issue 1, May 2023., 2023
Abstract The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway is crucial in maintaining cell growth and metabolism. The mTOR protein kinase constitutes the catalytic subunit of two multimeric protein complexes called mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1) and mTOR complex 2 (mTORC2).

Body growth, upper arm fat area, and clinical parameters in children with nephropathic cystinosis compared with other pediatric chronic kidney disease entities

open access: yesJournal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 45, Issue 2, Page 192-202, March 2022., 2022
Abstract Children with infantile nephropathic cystinosis (INC), an inherited lysosomal storage disease resulting in cystine accumulation in all body cells, are prone to progressive chronic kidney disease (CKD), impaired growth and reduced weight gain; however, systematic anthropometric analyses are lacking.

Clinical application of a phenotype‐based NGS panel for differential diagnosis of inherited kidney disease and beyond

open access: yesClinical Genetics, Volume 99, Issue 2, Page 236-249, February 2021., 2021
Abstract Understanding the genetic causes of kidney disease is essential for accurate diagnosis and could lead to improved therapeutic strategies and prognosis. To accurately and promptly identify the genetic background of kidney diseases, we applied a targeted next‐generation sequencing gene panel including 203 genes associated with kidney disease, as
