These results suggest that VDR gene polymorphisms can affect parathyroid response in ESRD patients, and the Apa I polymorphism is more informative in Japanese patients than the Bsm I polymorphism.
We previously reported a Belgian woman with MAD who had ZMPSTE24 mutations and died of complications of chronic renal failure at the age of 27.5 years.
We observed the strongest evidence for association between ESRD and rs1749824, located in the ZMIZ1 gene [OR = 1.47 (1.21-1.78) per copy of T allele; P = 8.1 x 10(-5)] and rs9298190, located in the musculin gene [OR = 1.56 (1.28-1.91) per copy of C allele; P = 1.6 x 10(-5)].
Both GLP1-RA (HR, 0.82; 95% CI, 0.75-0.89; P<0.001) and SGLT2i (HR, 0.62; 95% CI, 0.58-0.67; P<0.001) reduced the risk of progression of kidney disease including macroalbuminuria, but only SGLT2i reduced the risk of worsening estimated glomerular filtration rate, end-stage kidney disease, or renal death (HR, 0.55; 95% CI, 0.48-0.64; P<0.001).
The SGLT2i and GLP-1 RAs also reduced macroalbuminuria, decreased the time for doubling of serum creatinine, and slowed the time to end-stage renal disease.
This is the first report showing an association between DNA repair gene polymorphisms and ESRD development, and suggests that XRCC1Arg399Gln polymorphism may confer increased risk for the development of the disease.
The case we report is a 46,XX phenotypic female child who had diffuse mesangial sclerosis (DMS) and developed Wilms tumor 3 years after initiating dialysis for end-stage renal disease (ESRD).
WT1 gene-associated disorders are classically associated with complex phenotypes including early carcinogenic risk for gonadoblastoma and Wilms' tumor, chronic renal failure, nephrotic syndrome and sex developmental disorders in intersex disorders and ambiguous genitalia.
The expression of Wnt7b/β-catenin in radial arteries was higher in end stage renal disease than in control group, and IS increased Wnt7b/β-catenin expression in HASMCs as early as 3days after stimulation.
An association between ESRD and rs17709344, tagging the previously identified rs12437854 and located between the RGMA and MCTP2 genes, was replicated in independent case-control cohorts. rs12917114 near SEMA6D was associated with ESRD in the replication cohorts under the genotypic model (p < 0.05), and rs12137135 upstream of WNT4 was associated with ESRD in Steno.
The present results demonstrate that ZWT extract ameliorates adenine-induced CRF in rats by regulation of the canonical Wnt4/beta-catenin signaling in the kidneys.
We used human vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) and a rat model of chronic renal failure (CRF), and observed a native protective mechanism by which VC is reduced via the activation of Wnt1 and its transcriptional target ANKH inorganic pyrophosphate transport regulator (ANKH) gene.
Phosphorylated NF-κB p65 was expressed and colocalized with p53, p21, β-galactosidase, TGF-β1, and α-SMA in the kidneys of chronic renal failure (CRF) rats.
