Abstract excerpt
Mutations in CLCN5, which encodes the voltage-dependent Cl(-)/H(+)antiporter, CLC-5, cause Dent's disease. This disorder is characterized by low molecular-weight proteinuria, hypercalciuria, nephrocalcinosis and nephrolithiasis. Using a collecting duct cell model (mIMCD-3) in which endogenous clc-5 is disrupted by antisense clc-5 or overexpression of truncated clc-5, we demonstrate altered expression of the...
