A novel <i>KCNJ16</i> kidney organoid model recapitulates the disease phenotype and shows restoration of lipid accumulation upon treatment with statins
2023-12-23
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> the KCNJ16 gene has been associated with a novel kidney tubulopathy phenotype, viz. disturbed acid-base homeostasis, hypokalemia and altered renal salt transport. KCNJ16 encodes for Kir5.1, which together with Kir4.1 constitutes a potassium channel located at kidney tubular cell basolateral membranes. Preclinical studies provided mechanistical links between Kir5.1 and a disease phenotype, h...
