Abstract excerpt
Genetic studies into rare inborn errors of renal tubular sodium handling in man have brought many interesting, sometimes surprising insights into how we can maintain our bodies' electrolytes and fluids homeostasis. The cloning and identification of sodium transporting genes and proteins like NHE3, NKCC2, ROMK, CLCNKB, NCC, and EnaC has considerably improved our understanding of renal salt handling. Subsequently,...
