Gitelman syndrome caused by a rare homozygous mutation in the SLC12A3 gene: A case report
Gitelman syndrome (GS) is an unusual, autosomal recessive salt-losing tubulopathy characterized by hypokalemic metabolic alkalosis, hypomagnesemia and hypocalciuria. It is caused by mutations in the solute carrier family 12 member 3 (SLC12A3) gene resulting in disordered function of the thiazide-sensitive NaCl co-transporter.

Background. Classical salt-wasting (SW) congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) and Gitelman syndrome (GS) are two genetic conditions in which dyselectrolytemia may occur. No association between the two conditions has been previously described.

Abstract Carrier screening for genetic conditions performed preconception or during pregnancy allows identification of fetal risk for inherited autosomal recessive and X‐linked conditions. The goal is to identify at‐risk patients/couples and offer them reproductive options such as preimplantation genetic diagnosis, prenatal testing, or targeted newborn

First case of Gitelman syndrome in a child in Macau
The first case of a child with Gitelman syndrome (GS) in Macau was analyzed. The normotensive child presented with hypokalemia, hypomagnesemia, metabolic alkalosis, hyperreninemia and hypocalciuria. SLC12A3 gene mutation was detected.

Kidney size is sex‐dimorphic and regulated by androgens in adult humans and mice. Male mice lacking the main testosterone‐producing enzyme HSD17B3 had reduced testosterone during a short fetal time window, leading to reduced size of kidneys in adults, which were not responsive to high adult testosterone.

Mutational Analysis of SLC12A3 Gene in a Japanese General Population of Northern Japan [PDF]
Gitelman’s syndrome (GS) is considered to be a rare disorder. To assess the prevalence of GS in the Japanese general population and the relationships between mutations of related genes and blood pressure, we performed mutational analysis of the SLC12A3 ...

Cellular microenvironment of erythropoietin‐producing cells in hypoxic and injured mouse kidneys
Abstract The main sources of circulating erythropoietin (Epo) in the adult are kidney Norn cells, a recently identified interstitial cell type capable of becoming renal Epo‐producing (REP) cells following a local decrease in tissue oxygenation. REP cells are restricted to small clusters in the corticomedullary border region, suggesting that their ...

In this study, scRNA‐seq and chemoproteomics are integrated to characterize CDDP‐bound proteins at single‐cell resolution in tumor‐bearing mice. Additionally, the research demonstrates that ICA alleviates CDDP‐induced nephrotoxicity while enhancing its chemotherapeutic efficacy.

Gitelman and Bartter Syndrome in a Patient With Morbid Obesity: A Case Report and Literature Review
ABSTRACT We present a case study of a 34‐year‐old man with morbid obesity and a suspected Bartter–Gitelman spectrum tubulopathy (without genetic confirmation), weighing 135 kg, and with a BMI of 42.5 kg/m2, who was referred to the metabolic and bariatric surgery department due to morbid obesity to address abnormal electrolyte levels.
