Role of the monoclonal chain V domain and reversibility of renal damage in a transgenic model of acquired Fanconi syndrome
16 Mar 2006
Abstract excerpt
Acquired Fanconi syndrome (FS) is a complication of monoclonal gammopathies featuring a generalized dysfunction of the proximal tubule of the kidney, due to the storage within proximal tubular cells of a monoclonal immunoglobulin light chain. We engineered transgenic mice in which the endogenous mouse Jkappa cluster was replaced by a human VkappaJkappa rearranged gene cloned from a patient with smoldering...
