Adult human kidney organoids originate from CD24+ cells and represent an advanced model for adult polycystic kidney disease

open access: yesNature Genetics, 2022
Adult kidney organoids have been described as strictly tubular epithelia and termed tubuloids. While the cellular origin of tubuloids has remained elusive, here we report that they originate from a distinct CD24+ epithelial subpopulation.

Kidney: polycystic kidney disease [PDF]

open access: yesWIREs Developmental Biology, 2014
Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is a life‐threatening genetic disorder characterized by the presence of fluid‐filled cysts primarily in the kidneys. PKD can be inherited as autosomal recessive (ARPKD) or autosomal dominant (ADPKD) traits. Mutations in either the PKD1 or PKD2 genes, which encode polycystin 1 and polycystin 2, are the underlying cause of

Efficacy of beetroot juice on reducing blood pressure in hypertensive adults with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (BEET-PKD): study protocol for a double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled trial

open access: yesTrials, 2023
Background In autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) impaired nitric oxide (NO) synthesis, in part, contributes to early-onset hypertension. Beetroot juice (BRJ) reduces blood pressure (BP) by increasing NO-mediated vasodilation. The aim of

Organoid cystogenesis reveals a critical role of microenvironment in human polycystic kidney disease

open access: greenNature Materials, 2017
Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is a life-threatening disorder, commonly caused by defects in polycystin-1 (PC1) or polycystin-2 (PC2), in which tubular epithelia form fluid-filled cysts 1, 2.

Health disparities in chronic liver disease

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract The syndemic of hazardous alcohol consumption, opioid use, and obesity has led to important changes in liver disease epidemiology that have exacerbated health disparities. Health disparities occur when plausibly avoidable health differences are experienced by socially disadvantaged populations.

Polycystic kidney disease complicates renal pathology in a family with Fabry disease

open access: yesMolecular Genetics and Metabolism Reports, 2022
Fabry disease is a rare lysosomal storage disorder that primarily affects the heart and kidneys, often presenting with reduced renal function. Polycystic kidney disease is a renal condition in which cysts are found, which have a different presentation ...

Clinical and genetic characteristics of Korean autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease patients [PDF]

open access: yesThe Korean Journal of Internal Medicine, 2021
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most common hereditary kidney disease. It is characterized by cyst growth in the kidneys, resulting in kidney enlargement and end-stage kidney disease. The polycystic kidney disease 1 (PKD1) and

Polycystic Kidney Disease [PDF]

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 1989
The Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) is a genetic disease which is characterized by the gradual emergence of cystic lesions in the kidneys, which replace the renal parenchyma causing deterioration of its function to stage 5. The PKD is one of the causes of Chronic Kidney Disease on renal replacement therapy (RRT).
