Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most common genetic form of kidney disease and affects 1 in 500 to 1,000 individuals worldwide, regardless of ethnicity. It is characterized by progressive renal cyst formation, which distorts normal kidney architecture and ultimately causes 5% of all cases of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in

Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease [PDF]
Mutations in PKD1 or PKD2 cause autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease, which proceeds to kidney failure in 70% of patients between the fourth and seventh decade of life.[1][1] Signs of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (i.e., numerous cysts and enlargement of the kidneys) may ...

Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease [PDF]
When the BMJ last published an editorial on adult autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease1 there was no chromosomal assignment for the disorder. Two have since been recognised. The first, designated PKD-1,2 has been localised to a narrow region of about half a million base pairs on the short arm of chromosome 16, but the specific gene has not yet ...

Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is an important cause of medical morbidity in the United States that affects one-half million persons and accounts for ESRD in about 10% of the chronic dialysis population. In addition to its effects on the kidney, the disease has important manifestations in the cardiovascular system (aneurysms ...

Dual mTOR/PI3K inhibition limits PI3K-dependent pathways activated upon mTOR inhibition in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease [PDF]
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is characterized by the development of kidney cysts leading to kidney failure in adulthood. Inhibition of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) slows polycystic kidney disease (PKD) progression in ...

Vasopressin regulates the growth of the biliary epithelium in polycystic liver disease [PDF]
The neurohypophysial hormone arginine vasopressin (AVP) acts by three distinct receptor subtypes: V1a, V1b, and V2. In the liver, AVP is involved in ureogenesis, glycogenolysis, neoglucogenesis and regeneration. No data exist about the presence of AVP in
