Targeting new cellular disease pathways in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease
25 Jul 2017
Abstract excerpt
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most common inherited cause of end-stage renal failure. Understanding the molecular and cellular pathogenesis of ADPKD could help to identify new targets for treatment. The classic cellular cystic phenotype includes changes in proliferation, apoptosis, fluid secretion, extracellular matrix and cilia function. However, recent research, suggests that the...
