Dent disease is an X-linked recessive renal tubular disorder characterized by low-molecular-weight proteinuria, hypercalciuria, nephrolithiasis, nephrocalcinosis, and progressive renal failure. Inactivating mutations of CLCN5, the gene encoding the 2Cl- /H+ exchanger ClC-5, have been reported in patients with Dent disease 1.
