The precise steps leading from mutation of the polycystic kidney disease (PKD1) gene to the autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) phenotype remain to be established. Fluid accumulation is a requirement for cyst expansion in ADPKD, suggesting that abnormal fluid secretion into the cyst lumen might play a role in disease. In this study, we sought to establish a link between polycystin-1 (the PKD1...
