Decreased sulfotransferase SULT1C2 gene expression in DPT-induced polycystic kidney.
BACKGROUND The pathogenesis of polycystic kidney disease (PKD) remains unclear despite the identification of the genes responsible for hereditary PKD. In this study, we investigated the alteration of gene expressions in an acquired PKD model induced by 2-amino-4,5-diphenylthiazole (DPT) using the differential display method. METHODS Kidney mRNA from a Sprague-Dawley rat fed with 1% DPT for 4 ...
متن کاملMolecular cloning, expression, localisation and functional characterisation of a rabbit SULT1C2 sulfotransferase.
The importance of sulfotransferases in xenobiotic metabolism is gaining recognition. The gastrointestinal (GI) tract is a major portal of entry for many xenobiotics, yet little is known about the contribution of sulfotransferases to detoxication or bioactivation metabolism in these tissues. To this end, isolation and characterisation of sulfotransferases expressed in the stomach of rabbits was ...
متن کاملKidney injury molecule-1 expression in murine polycystic kidney disease.
Kidney injury molecule-1 (Kim-1) is a type 1 membrane protein maximally upregulated in proliferating and dedifferentiated tubular cells after renal ischemia. Because epithelial dedifferentiation, proliferation, and local ischemia may play a role in the pathophysiology of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease, we investigated Kim-1 expression in a mouse model of this disease. In the Pkd2(...
متن کاملPolycystic kidney disease – where gene dosage counts
Gene dosage effects have emerged as playing a central role in the pathogenesis of polycystic kidney disease. Yet, how gene dosage can ultimately have an impact on the formation of kidney cysts remains unknown. In this commentary we review the evidence for the role of gene dosage effects versus the "2-hit" mutation model in polycystic kidney disease (PKD), and also discuss how gene networks may ...
متن کاملExon Sequencing of PKD1 Gene in an Iranian Patient with Autosomal-Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease
Introduction: Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is one of the most common genetic kidney disorders with the incidence of 1 in 1,000 births. ADPKD is genetically heterogeneous with two genes identified: PKD1 (16p13.3, 46 exons) and PKD2 (4q21, 15 exons). Eighty five percent of the patients with ADPKD have at least one mutation in the PKD1 gene. Genetic studies have demonstrate...
