Src inhibition ameliorates polycystic kidney disease.
Despite identification of the genes responsible for autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (PKD) and autosomal recessive PKD (ARPKD), the precise functions of their cystoprotein products remain unknown. Recent data suggested that multimeric cystoprotein complexes initiate aberrant signaling cascades in PKD, and common components of these signaling pathways may be therapeutic targets. This...
متن کاملTesevatinib ameliorates progression of polycystic kidney disease in rodent models of autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease
AIM To investigate the therapeutic potential of tesevatinib (TSV), a unique multi-kinase inhibitor currently in Phase II clinical trials for autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), in well-defined rodent models of autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD). METHODS We administered TSV in daily doses of 7.5 and 15 mg/kg per day by I.P. to the well characterized bpk mod...
متن کاملInhibition of Activin Signaling Slows Progression of Polycystic Kidney Disease.
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), characterized by the formation of numerous kidney cysts, is caused by PKD1 or PKD2 mutations and affects 0.1% of the population. Although recent clinical studies indicate that reduction of cAMP levels slows progression of PKD, this finding has not led to an established safe and effective therapy for patients, indicating the need to find new ...
متن کاملMEK inhibition holds promise for polycystic kidney disease.
P olycystic kidney disease (PKD) has a number of characteristics that make it uniquely challenging for the development of therapies to slow disease progression. Renal cystic diseases result from the neoplastic growth of numerous fluid-filled cysts, often accompanied by increased apoptosis, tissue remodeling, inflammation, and fibrosis (1–3). The slow, inexorable growth of these renal cysts, par...
متن کاملPolycystic kidney disease.
A number of inherited disorders result in renal cyst development. The most common form, autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), is a disorder most often diagnosed in adults and caused by mutation in PKD1 or PKD2. The PKD1 protein, polycystin-1, is a large receptor-like protein, whereas polycystin-2 is a transient receptor potential channel. The polycystin complex localizes to prim...
