Amyloid proximal tubulopathy: a novel form of light chain proximal tubulopathy [PDF]
Light chain proximal tubulopathy is a paraproteinemic-related kidney disease most commonly seen in patients with a plasma cell dyscrasia. The classic description is that of proximal tubules with kappa-restricted intracytoplasmic crystals in a patient with a clinical Fanconi's syndrome.

Inherited Tubulopathies of the Kidney [PDF]
The kidney tubules provide homeostasis by maintaining the external milieu that is critical for proper cellular function. Without homeostasis, there would be no heartbeat, no muscle movement, no thought, sensation, or emotion. The task is achieved by an orchestra of proteins, directly or indirectly involved in the tubular transport of water and solutes.

Hereditary tyrosinemia type 1 in an infant with multiple congenital defects
Hereditary tyrosinemia type 1 or hepatorenal tyrosinemia is a severe orphan autosomal-recessive disorder of tyrosine metabolism caused by a deficiency of the enzyme fumarylacetoacetate hydrolase (FAH).

Neurological features of epilepsy, ataxia, sensorineural deafness, tubulopathy syndrome. [PDF]
Recently, we reported a previously unrecognized symptom constellation comprising epilepsy, ataxia, sensorineural deafness, and tubulopathy (EAST syndrome) associated with recessive mutations in the KCNJ10 gene.

Obesity-related proximal tubulopathy: an emerging threat to kidney health
Our previous studies have demonstrated that lipid overload leads to lysosomal dysfunction and autophagic stagnation in kidney proximal tubular epithelial cells (PTECs), which contributes to the renal lipotoxicity and eventually leading to the development

CASE PRESENTATIONA 55-year-old Caucasian woman presented to her primary care physician with complaints of progressive fatigue for several months, dyspnea with minimal exertion, loss of appetite, 15-pound weight loss, and recurrent low-grade fevers. Past medical history was significant only for migraine headaches.

Diabetic proximal tubulopathy: Can we mimic the disease for in vitro screening of SGLT inhibitors? [PDF]
Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is the foremost cause of renal failure. While the glomeruli are severely affected in the course of the disease, the main determinant for disease progression is the tubulointerstitial compartment.
