Polycystic Kidney Disease [PDF]
Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2007 Renal cysts are common clinical findings, often incidentally discovered in the course of evaluating other problems. They may be either acquired or seen in association with a number of inherited and congenital disorders. The most common disorder, autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), is an important cause of end-stage renal disease (ESRD)

Polycystic kidney disease [PDF]
Nature Reviews Disease Primers, 2018 Cystic kidneys are common causes of end-stage renal disease, both in children and in adults. Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) and autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD) are cilia-related disorders and the two main forms of monogenic cystic kidney diseases.

Polycystic Kidney Disease [PDF]
Annual Review of Medicine, 2009 A number of inherited disorders result in renal cyst development. The most common form, autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), is a disorder most often diagnosed in adults and caused by mutation in PKD1 or PKD2. The PKD1 protein, polycystin-1, is a large receptor-like protein, whereas polycystin-2 is a transient receptor potential ...

An Empirical Biomarker-based Calculator for Autosomal Recessive Polycystic Kidney Disease - The Nieto-Narayan Formula [PDF]
, 2016 Autosomal polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD) is associated with progressive enlargement of the kidneys fuelled by the formation and expansion of fluid-filled cysts.

Polycystic Kidney Disease [PDF]
The Journal of Clinical Hypertension, 2005 Polycystic kidney disease, an inherited systemic disorder, is characterized by the development of multiple cysts in the kidneys and other organs. Patients can present at any age, but more often come to clinical attention (unless there is a family history) after age 30. Patients who are diagnosed before age 30 have a worse renal survival.

Kidney: polycystic kidney disease [PDF]
WIREs 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
