Abstract excerpt
Primary hyperoxaluria type 1 (PH1) is a severe inherited disorder caused by a genetic defect in alanine-glyoxylate aminotransferase (AGXT), which results in recurrent urolithiasis and renal failure. Animal models that precisely reflect human PH1 phenotypes are lacking. We aimed to develop a novel PH1 rat model and study the mechanisms involved in PH1 deterioration. One cell stage Sprague-Dawley embryos were...
