Characterisation of the Cullin-3 mutation that causes a severe form of familial hypertension and hyperkalaemia [PDF]
Deletion of exon 9 from Cullin‐3 (CUL3, residues 403–459: CUL3Δ403–459) causes pseudohypoaldosteronism type IIE (PHA2E), a severe form of familial hyperkalaemia and hypertension (FHHt).

Renal phosphate handling in Gitelman syndrome—the results of a case-control study [PDF]
Background: Patients with Gitelman syndrome, a hereditary salt-wasting tubulopathy, have loss-of-function mutations in the SLC12A3 gene coding for the thiazide-sensitive sodium chloride co-transporter in the distal convoluted tubule.

Antagonistic regulation of parvalbumin expression and mitochondrial calcium handling capacity in renal epithelial cells [PDF]
Parvalbumin (PV) is a cytosolic Ca²⁺-binding protein acting as a slow-onset Ca²⁺ buffer modulating the shape of Ca²⁺ transients in fast-twitch muscles and a subpopulation of neurons. PV is also expressed in non-excitable cells including distal convoluted

Single‐Cell RNA Sequencing Delineates Renal Anti‐Fibrotic Mechanisms Mediated by TRPC6 Inhibition
Single‐cell transcriptomics reveals how TRPC6 inhibition alters renal cell composition and gene expression in CKD. The study uncovers a novel endothelial subpopulation (ECRIN), highlights key inflammatory and fibrotic pathways, and identifies a Prnp‐driven network linked to fibrosis resolution, offering mechanistic insight into TRPC6 as a potential ...

Towards precision medicine for hypertension: a review of genomic, epigenomic, and microbiomic effects on blood pressure in experimental rat models and humans [PDF]
Compelling evidence for the inherited nature of essential hypertension has led to extensive research in rats and humans. Rats have served as the primary model for research on the genetics of hypertension resulting in identification of genomic regions ...

Abstract Renal potassium wasting syndromes, such as Gitelman's syndrome (GS), are well documented in humans but rarely reported in veterinary medicine. This case describes a 6‐month‐old domestic medium‐hair cat presenting with chronic hypokalaemia, polyuria and polydipsia. Diagnostic evaluation revealed hypokalaemia, metabolic alkalosis, hypochloraemia

A new approach based on targeted pooled DNA sequencing identifies novel mutations in patients with Inherited Retinal Dystrophies [PDF]
Inherited retinal diseases (IRD) are a heterogeneous group of diseases that mainly affect the retina; more than 250 genes have been linked to the disease and more than 20 different clinical phenotypes have been described.

Clinical and genetic features in 30 children with Gitelman syndrome
Background Gitelman syndrome (GS) is a rare autosomal recessive renal tubular disorder caused by SLC12A3 gene variants. This study aimed to retrospectively analyze the clinical and genetic characteristics of pediatric GS patients and validate the ...
