Novel heterozygous mutation of SLC12A3 gene in Gitelman syndrome [PDF]
Background Gitelman syndrome (GS) is an autosomal recessive disease primarily caused by mutations in the SLC12A3 gene, characterized by the hypokalaemic metabolic alkalosis with hypomagnesemia. Here, we investigated the mutation of SLC12A3 gene in a Chinese pedigree with GS and analyzed the clinical manifestations.

Frequent SLC12A3 mutations in Chinese Gitelman syndrome patients: structure and function disorder [PDF]
Purposes This study was conducted to identify the frequent mutations from reported Chinese Gitelman syndrome (GS) patients, to predict the three-dimensional structure change of human Na–Cl co-transporter (hNCC), and to test the activity of these mutations and some novel mutations in vitro and in vivo.

Allele-specific RT-PCR for the rapid detection of recurrent SLC12A3 mutations for Gitelman syndrome
Recurrent mutations in the SLC12A3 gene responsible for autosomal recessive Gitelman syndrome (GS) are frequently reported, but the exact prevalence is unknown.

HIV-associated nephropathy (HIVAN) impairs functions of both glomeruli and tubules. Attention has been previously focused on the HIVAN glomerulopathy. Tubular injury has drawn increased attention because sodium wasting is common in hospitalized HIV/AIDS ...

A novel mutation of SLC12A3 gene causing Gitelman syndrome
A 48-year-old patient with a history of diabetes mellitus, presented to a surgical ward with abdominal pain. She was found to have hypokalemia. Her younger sister had passed away due to sudden cardiac death at the age of 25 years. Further evaluation revealed an elevated trans-tubular potassium gradient suggestive of renal potassium loss, normal blood ...

Two Brothers from Macedonia with Gitelman Syndrome
Gitelman syndrome (GS) is a rare renal tubulopathy with an autosomal recessive mode of inheritance, caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in the SLC12A3 gene.

Molecular complexity analysis of the diagnosis of Gitelman syndrome in China
Gitelman syndrome (GS) is an autosomal recessive renal tubal disease characterized by hypomagnesemia, hypokalemia, and hypocalciuria. The disease is caused by defects in the SLC12A3 gene, which encodes the thiazide diuretic-sensitive sodium chloride ...

SLC12A3 variants modulate LDL cholesterol levels in the Mongolian population [PDF]
Abnormalities in lipid metabolism are crucial factors in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Variants of many genes have been verified to confer risk for lipid metabolism abnormalities. However, the relationship between genetic variants of the NCC-encoding SLC12A3 gene and lipid metabolism in the Mongolian population remains unclear.

Transcriptional and Functional Analyses of SLC12A3 Mutations [PDF]
Gitelman syndrome (GS) is a recessive salt-losing tubulopathy that is caused by mutations in the SLC12A3 gene that encodes the sodium-chloride co-transporter (NCC). GS is characterized by significant inter- and intrafamilial phenotype variability, with early onset and/or severe clinical manifestations in some patients.
