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.

Introduction: Gitelman syndrome (GS) is an inherited kidney disease that causes an imbalance of charged ions in the body. SLC12A3 mutation is the predominant cause of GS. There are different known and unknown pathogenic mutations in SLC12A3.

A Deep Intronic Mutation in the SLC12A3 Gene Leads to Gitelman Syndrome [PDF]
Many mutations have been detected in the SLC12A3 gene of Gitelman syndrome (GS, OMIM 263800) patients. In previous studies, only one mutant allele was detected in approximately 20 to 41% of patients with GS; however, the exact reason for the nonidentification has not been established.

Gene expression of Slc12a3 in the kidney of wild-type (WT) and Vpr transgenic (Tg) mice.
(A) Renal Slc12a3 gene expression, quantified by qRT-PCR, was significantly lower in Tg mice compared with WT mice. (B) Slc12a3 gene expression was markedly lower (fewer cells express Slc12a3) in Tg mice compared with WT mice, as determined in situ ...

Introduction: Gitelman syndrome (GS) is an autosomal recessive renal tubulopathy characterized by hypokalemic metabolic alkalosis, hypomagnesemia, and hypocalciuria. Biallelic loss-of-function variants in the SLC12A3 gene, encoding the thiazide-sensitive Na+-Cl− cotransporter (NCC), underlie the biochemical signature of GS and its clinical variability:

Urine electrolytes guide treatment of Gitelman syndrome and recurrent syncope-A case report. [PDF]
Abstract Syncope is a common reason for inpatient admission. Few case studies describe an association between syncope and Gitelman syndrome (GS). Herein, we present a case of a woman with hypokalemia and recurrent syncope which eventually led to a diagnosis of GS. A physiologic approach to urine electrolyte interpretation informed clinical decisions to

Recurrent Deep Intronic Mutations in the SLC12A3 Gene Responsible for Gitelman's Syndrome [PDF]
Summary Background and objectives Gitelman's syndrome (GS) is an autosomal recessive renal tubular disorder caused by mutations in the SLC12A3 gene encoding the thiazide-sensitive Na+-Cl− cotransporter (NCC). Despite meticulous sequencing of genomic DNA, approximately one-third of GS patients are negative or ...
