Identification of novel compound mutations of SLC12A3 gene in a Chinese pedigree with Gitelman's syndrome exhibiting Bartter's syndrome-liked phenotypes
2020-04-03
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> Gitelman's syndrome (GS) is a rare salt-losing renal tubular disorder associated with SLC12A3 gene mutations, which encodes the Na-Cl co-transporter (NCCT). GS is characterized by hypokalaemic metabolic alkalosis, hypomagnesemia, hypocalciuria and elevated renin-angiotensin-aldosterone (RAA) level. The variability of phenotypes is likely to be associated with the variety of SLC12A3 mutations....
