Uromodulin Retention in Thick Ascending Limb of Henle's Loop Affects SCD1 in Neighboring Proximal Tubule: Renal Transcriptome Studies in Mouse Models of Uromodulin-Associated Kidney Disease

Uromodulin-associated kidney disease (UAKD) is a hereditary progressive renal disease which can lead to renal failure and requires renal replacement therapy. UAKD belongs to the endoplasmic reticulum storage diseases due to maturation defect of mutant uromodulin and its retention in the enlarged endoplasmic reticulum in the cells of the thick ascending limb of Henle's loop (TALH). Dysfunction o...

Uromodulin and chronic kidney disease.

Uromodulin (Tamm-Horsfall protein) is produced in the kidney by cells of the thick ascending limb and distal tubule. Recent genetic studies suggest a role of uromodulin in chronic kidney disease. Mutations in the UMOD gene cause uromodulin storage disease. They code for amino acid substitutions that lead to misfolding of the molecule and its retention in the endoplasmic reticulum. Single nucleo...

Uromodulin Levels in Chronic Kidney Disease

Objectives: Uromodulin is a protein exclusively produced by Kidney in tubular cells lining thick ascending limb (TAL) of the loop of Henle. It has been linked to water electrolyte balance, protective role against urinary tract infections and renal stone formation. To analyse its trend in Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), its levels were analysed in serum and urine of patients at different stages of...
