Abstract
Copeptin, a glycosylated peptide of 39 amino acids, is the C-terminal segment of arginine vasopressin (AVP) precursor peptide, which is consisted of two other fragments, vasopressin and neurophysin Ⅱ. The main physiological functions of AVP are fluid and osmotic balance, cardiovascular homeostasis and regulation of the endocrine stress response. Numerous studies have demonstrated that the endogenous AVP in plasma is a meaningful biomarker to guide diagnosis and therapy of diseases associated with fluids disorders and stress. However, due to its instability, short half-time life in circulation and lack of readily available AVP assays, clinical measurement of AVP is restricted. In contrast to AVP, copeptin which is released in an equimolar mode with AVP from the pituitary, has emerged as a stable and simple-to-measure surrogate marker of AVP and displays excellent potential in diagnosis, differentiation and prognosis of various diseases. This review will discuss the studies on the clinical value of copeptin in different diseases, especially in AVP-dependent fluids disorders, as well as issues and prospects of the application of this potential biomarker.

Abstract
X-linked nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI) is caused by variations in arginine vasopressin receptor 2 (AVPR2). Some patients show partial resistance to arginine vasopressin (AVP). A 19-month-old Japanese boy presented with polydipsia since infancy. His mother had a history of polydipsia during pregnancy, and his maternal granduncle also had polydipsia. Intermediate urine osmolality and markedly high plasma AVP levels were observed in the water deprivation test. Subsequent pitressin administration caused no further elevation in urine osmolality. We diagnosed the patient with partial NDI, initiated therapy with hydrochlorothiazide, and placed him on a low-sodium diet. Although his urine volume decreased by 20-30% after the initiation of therapy, progressive hydronephrosis and growth retardation developed 2 years later. We investigated his genetic background by multiplex targeted sequencing of genes associated with inherited renal diseases, including AVPR2 and aquaporin-2 (AQP2). We identified a hemizygous missense variant in AVPR2 NM_000054:c.371A>G,p.(Tyr124Cys) in the boy and a heterozygous variant in the mother at the same locus. Distinguishing partial NDI from primary polydipsia is difficult because of its mild symptoms. Markedly elevated plasma AVP levels with intermediate urine osmolality may suggest partial NDI, and genetic analysis can be useful for such patients.

Abstract
Systems biology can be defined as the study of a biological process in which all of the relevant components are investigated together in parallel to discover the mechanism. Although the approach is not new, it has come to the forefront as a result of genome sequencing projects completed in the first few years of the current century. It has elements of large-scale data acquisition (chiefly next-generation sequencing-based methods and protein mass spectrometry) and large-scale data analysis (big data integration and Bayesian modeling). Here we discuss these methodologies and show how they can be applied to understand the downstream effects of GPCR signaling, specifically looking at how the neurohypophyseal peptide hormone vasopressin, working through the V2 receptor and PKA activation, regulates the water channel aquaporin-2. The emerging picture provides a detailedframework for understanding the molecular mechanisms involved in water balance disorders, pointing the way to improved treatment of both polyuric disorders and water-retention disorders causing dilutional hyponatremia.

Importance of Early Genetic Sequencing in Neonates Admitted to NICU with Recurrent Hypernatremia: Results of a Prospective Cohort Study. Neonatology 2022; 119:103-110.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The genetic characteristics in neonates admitted to the NICU with recurrent hypernatremia remained unknown. We aimed to implement early genetic sequencing to identify possible genetic etiologies, optimize the treatment, and improve the outcome. METHODS We prospectively performed exome sequencing or targeted panel sequencing on neonates diagnosed with recurrent hypernatremia (plasma sodium ≥150 mEq/L, ≥2 episodes) from January 1, 2016, to June 30, 2020. RESULTS Among 22,375 neonates admitted to the NICU, approximately 0.33% (73/22,375) developed hypernatremia. The incidence of hypernatremia >14 days and ≤14 days was 0.03% and 0.3%, respectively. Among 38 neonates who had ≥2 hypernatremia episodes, parents of 28 patients consented for sequencing. Genetic diagnosis was achieved in 25% neonates (7/28). Precision medicine treatment was performed in 85.7% (6/7) of the patients, including hydrochlorothiazide and indomethacin for 57.1% (4/7) with arginine vasopressin receptor 2 (AVPR2) deficiency-associated congenital nephrogenic diabetes insipidus; a special diet of fructose formula for 1 patient with solute carrier family 5 member 1 deficiency-associated congenital glucose-galactose malabsorption (1/7, 14.3%); and kallikrein-inhibiting ointment for 1 patient with serine protease inhibitor of Kazal-type 5 deficiency-associated Netherton syndrome (1/7, 14.3%). Only hypernatremia onset age (adjusted odds ratio 1.32 [1.01-1.72], p = 0.040) independently predicted the underlying genetic etiology. The risk of a genetic etiology of hypernatremia was 9.0 times higher for neonates with a hypernatremia onset age ≥17.5 days (95% confidence interval, 1.1-73.2; p = 0.038). CONCLUSIONS Single-gene disorders are common in neonates with recurrent hypernatremia, and >50% of cases are caused by AVPR2 deficiency-associated congenital nephrogenic diabetes insipidus. Early genetic testing can aid the diagnosis of unexplained recurrent neonatal hypernatremia and improve therapy and outcome.

Abstract
Water permeability of the kidney collecting ducts is regulated by the peptide hormone vasopressin. Between minutes and hours (short-term), vasopressin induces trafficking of the water channel protein aquaporin-2 to the apical plasma membrane of the collecting duct principal cells to increase water permeability. Between hours and days (long-term), vasopressin induces aquaporin-2 gene expression. Here, we investigated the mechanisms that bridge the short-term and long-term vasopressin-mediated aquaporin-2 regulation by α-actinin 4, an F-actin crosslinking protein and a transcription co-activator of the glucocorticoid receptor. Vasopressin induced F-actin depolymerization and α-actinin 4 nuclear translocation in the mpkCCD collecting duct cell model. Co-immunoprecipitation followed by immunoblotting showed increased interaction between α-actinin 4 and glucocorticoid receptor in response to vasopressin. ChIP-PCR showed results consistent with α-actinin 4 and glucocorticoid receptor binding to the aquaporin-2 promoter. α-actinin 4 knockdown reduced vasopressin-induced increases in aquaporin-2 mRNA and protein expression. α-actinin 4 knockdown did not affect vasopressin-induced glucocorticoid receptor nuclear translocation, suggesting independent mechanisms of vasopressin-induced nuclear translocation of α-actinin 4 and glucocorticoid receptor. Glucocorticoid receptor knockdown profoundly reduced vasopressin-induced increases in aquaporin-2 mRNA and protein expression. In the absence of glucocorticoid analog dexamethasone, vasopressin-induced increases in glucocorticoid receptor nuclear translocation and aquaporin-2 mRNA were greatly reduced. α-actinin 4 knockdown further reduced vasopressin-induced increase in aquaporin-2 mRNA in the absence of dexamethasone. We conclude that glucocorticoid receptor plays a major role in vasopressin-induced aquaporin-2 gene expression that can be enhanced by α-actinin 4. In the absence of vasopressin, α-actinin 4 crosslinks F-actin underneath the apical plasma membrane, impeding aquaporin-2 membrane insertion. Vasopressin-induced F-actin depolymerization in one hand facilitates aquaporin-2 apical membrane insertion and in the other hand frees α-actinin 4 to enter the nucleus where it binds glucocorticoid receptor to enhance aquaporin-2 gene expression.

Abstract
AIMS To investigate genotype and phenotype of congenital nephrogenic diabetes insipidus caused by AVPR2 mutations, which is rare and limitedly studied in Chinese population. METHODS 88 subjects from 28 families with NDI in a department (Beijing, PUMCH) were screened for AVPR2 mutations. Medical records were retrospectively reviewed and characterized. Genotype and phenotype analysis was performed. RESULTS 23 AVPR2 mutations were identified, including six novel mutations (p.Y117D, p.W208R, p.L313R, p.S127del, p.V162Sfs*30 and p.G251Pfs*96). The onset-age ranged from 1 week to 3 years. Common presentations were polydipsia and polyuria (100%) and intermittent fever (57%). 21% and 14% of patients had short stature and mental impairment. Urine SG and osmolality were decreased, while serum osmolality and sodium were high. Urological ultrasonography results showed hydronephrosis of the kidney (52%), dilation of the ureter (48%), and thickened bladder wall or increased residual urine (32%), led to intermittent urethral catheterization (7%), cystostomy (11%) and binary nephrostomy (4%). Urological defects were developed in older patients. Genotype and phenotype analysis revealed patients with non-missense mutations had higher levels of serum sodium than missense mutations. CONCLUSION In the first and largest case series of NDI caused by AVPR2 mutations in Chinese population, we established genetic profile and characterized clinical data, reporting six novel mutations. Further, we found genotype was associated with phenotype. This knowledge broadens genotype and phenotype spectrum of rare congenital NDI caused by AVPR2 mutations, and provides basis for studying molecular biology of AVPR2.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cross-sectional studies suggest tungsten (W) exposure may be associated with diabetes. We assessed longitudinal associations between urinary W and fasting glucose, 2-hour glucose, insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), β-cell function (HOMA-β), and incident type 2 diabetes. METHODS We used data from 1,609 Hispanic and non-Hispanic White adults with 20 to 74 years of age residing in rural Colorado and participating in the San Luis Valley Diabetes Study. Urinary metal exposure values were measured at baseline and natural log-transformed. We assessed longitudinal associations between urinary W and continuous outcome measures using linear-mixed effect models and associations with incident diabetes using Fine and Gray competing risks regression models (competing event = all-cause mortality). The main adjustment set of covariates included: age, sex, ethnicity, education, smoking status, hypertension, body mass index, caloric intake, alcohol intake, and urinary creatinine levels. Secondary models were further adjusted for arsenic, cadmium, and lead exposures. We assessed whether sex or ethnicity were effect modifiers. RESULTS At baseline, the median W concentration was 0.22 μg/L (interquartile range = 0.20, 0.59). In the main cross-sectional analyses, lnW levels were significantly associated with 3% higher lnHOMA-IR (95% CI = 1 to 5). In the main longitudinal models, lnW was significantly associated with 1% higher natural log-transformed fasting glucose (95% CI = <1 to 1), 3% higher natural log-transformed HOMA-IR (95% CI = 2 to 5), and 28% higher incident diabetes (subdistribution hazard ratio=1.28, 95% CI = 1.09 to 1.50). Results remained significant when further adjusting for other metals. We observed evidence for effect modification by sex and ethnicity. CONCLUSION Urinary W was longitudinally associated with adverse metabolic health indicators.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We report a case of an infant with nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI) diagnosed by the measurement of serum copeptin. There is only one study that previously evaluated the use of copeptin measurement in a pediatric patient. CASE PRESENTATION We present a 10-month-old child with polyuria-polydipsia syndrome (PPS) and hypernatremia that could not support water restriction due to increased risk of dehydration and worsening of his condition. Therefore, plasma measurement of copeptin allowed the diagnosis of NDI. CONCLUSIONS The water deprivation test (WDT) is considered the gold standard for diagnosis in PPS. However, WDT has serious limitations regarding its interpretation. Furthermore, the WDT can cause dehydration and hypernatremia, especially in young children. Therefore, the measurement of plasma copeptin seems to be a promising method to perform an earlier, safer, and accurate investigation of PPS. Up to now, our study is the second to report the usefulness of copeptin in children.

Abstract
Diabetes insipidus (DI) is a disorder characterized by a high hypotonic urinary output of more than 50ml per kg body weight per 24 hours, with associated polydipsia of more than 3 liters a day [1,2]. Central DI results from inadequate secretion and usually deficient synthesis of Arginine vasopressin (AVP) in the hypothalamus or pituitary gland. Besides central DI further underlying etiologies of DI can be due to other primary forms (renal origin) or secondary forms of polyuria (resulting from primary polydipsia). All these forms belong to the Polyuria Polydipsia Syndrom (PPS). In most cases central and nephrogenic DI are acquired, but there are also congenital forms caused by genetic mutations of the AVP gene (central DI) [3] or by mutations in the gene for the AVP V2R or the AQP2 water channel (nephrogenic DI) [4]. Primary polydipsia (PP) as secondary form of polyuria includes an excessive intake of large amounts of fluid leading to polyuria in the presence of intact AVP secretion and appropriate antidiuretic renal response. Differentiation between the three mentioned entities is difficult [5], especially in patients with Primary polydipsia or partial, mild forms of DI [1,6], but different tests for differential diagnosis, most recently based on measurement of copeptin, and a thorough medical history mostly lead to the correct diagnosis. This is important since treatment strategies vary and application of the wrong treatment can be dangerous [7]. Treatment of central DI consists of fluid management and drug therapy with the synthetic AVP analogue Desmopressin (DDAVP), that is used as nasal or oral preparation in most cases. Main side effect can be dilutional hyponatremia [8]. In this review we will focus on central diabetes insipidus and describe the prevalence, the clinical manifestations, the etiology as well as the differential diagnosis and management of central diabetes insipidus in the out- and inpatient setting.

Abstract
The aquaporin 2 (AQP2) plays a critical role in water reabsorption to maintain water homeostasis. AQP2 mutation leads to nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI), characterized by polyuria, polydipsia, and hypernatremia. We previously reported that a novel AQP2 mutation (G215S) caused NDI in a boy. In this study, we aimed to elucidate the cell biological consequences of this mutation on AQP2 function and clarify the molecular pathogenic mechanism for NDI in this patient. First, we analyzed AQP2 expression in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells by AQP2-G215S or AQP2-WT plasmid transfection and found significantly decreased AQP2-G215S expression in cytoplasmic membrane compared with AQP2-WT, independent of forskolin treatment. Further, we found co-localization of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) marker (Calnexin) with AQP2-G215S rather than AQP2-WT in MDCK cells by immunocytochemistry. The functional analysis showed that MDCK cells transfected with AQP2-G215S displayed reduced water permeability compared with AQP2-WT. Visualization of AQP2 structure implied that AQP2-G215S mutation might interrupt the folding of the sixth transmembrane α-helix and/or the packing of α-helices, resulting in the misfolding of monomer and further impaired formation of tetramer. Taken together, these findings suggested that AQP2-G215S was misfolded and retained in the ER and could not be translocated to the apical membrane to function as a water channel, which revealed the molecular pathogenic mechanism of AQP2-G215S mutation and explained for the phenotype of NDI in this patient.

Abstract
Tubulopathies are a group of heterogeneous diseases that are manifested in the malfunction of the renal tubules. This review addresses tubulopathies associated with polyuria syndrome, namely renal glucosuria syndrome, nephrogenic diabetes insipidus and pseudohyperaldosteronism. Types of renal glucosuria are described, namely: type A, type B and the most severe type 0. Type A is characterized by a low filtration threshold and low glucose reabsorption. The type of inheritance is autosomal recessive. Type B, autosomal dominant, is characterized by uneven activity of glucose transport, in which its reabsorption is reduced only in some nephrons. That is, normal reabsorption of glucose is maintained, but the filtration threshold of the latter is reduced. Type 0 with a severe course is characterized by complete inability of epithelial cells of the proximal tubules to reabsorb glucose. Nephrogenic diabetes insipidus is a rare inherited disease caused by impaired response of the renal tubules to antidiuretic hormone (ADH). Depending on the degree of inability to concentrate urine, there are complete and partial forms. It is divided into nephrogenic diabetes insipidus type I (X-linked recessive); nephrogenic diabetes insipidus type II (autosomal recessive and autosomal dominant) and nephrogenic diabetes insipidus syndrome with dementia and intracerebral calcifications (type of inheritance remains unknown). Children with autosomal recessive type of inheritance suffer from the more severe disease course. Pseudohypoaldosteronism is characterized by a special condition of the renal tubules which is due to insufficient sensitivity of the tubular epithelium to aldosterone, which in turn leads to hyperaldosteronism, the development of hyponatremia, metabolic acidosis with hyperkalemia, polydipsia and polyuria, decreased sodium reabsorption and retardation of the child's physical development. The classification includes three syndromes of pseudohypoaldosteronism, namely: type I (PHA1), which is divided into PHA1A (autosomal dominant, renal), PHA1B (autosomal recessive, systemic); type II (PHA2; Gordon’s syndrome), type III (secondary), which develops as a result of renal pathology.

Abstract
Aquaporin-2 (Aqp2) gene transcription is strongly regulated by vasopressin in the renal collecting duct. However, the transcription factors (TFs) responsible for the regulation of expression of Aqp2 remain largely unknown. We used Bayes' theorem to integrate several -omics data sets to stratify the 1,344 TFs present in the mouse genome with regard to probabilities of regulating Aqp2 gene transcription. Also, we carried out new RNA sequencing experiments mapping the time course of vasopressin-induced changes in the transcriptome of mpkCCD cells to identify TFs that change in tandem with Aqp2. The analysis identified 17 of 1,344 TFs that are most likely to be involved in the regulation of Aqp2 gene transcription. These TFs included eight that have been proposed in prior studies to play a role in Aqp2 regulation, viz., Cebpb, Elf1, Elf3, Ets1, Jun, Junb, Nfkb1, and Sp1. The remaining nine represent new candidates for future studies (Atf1, Irf3, Klf5, Klf6, Mef2d, Nfyb, Nr2f6, Stat3, and Nr4a1). Conspicuously absent is CREB (Creb1), which has been widely proposed to mediate vasopressin-induced regulation of Aqp2 gene transcription (Nielsen S, Frokiaer J, Marples D, Kwon TH, Agre P, Knepper MA. Physiol Rev 82: 205-244, 2002; Kortenoeven ML, Fenton RA. Biochim Biophys Acta 1840: 1533-1549, 2014; Bockenhauer D, Bichet DG. Nat Rev Nephrol 11: 576-588, 2015; Pearce D, Soundararajan R, Trimpert C, Kashlan OB, Deen PM, Kohan DE. Clin J Am Soc Nephrol 10: 135-146, 2015). Instead, another CREB-like TF, Atf1, ranked fourth among all TFs. RNA sequencing time-course experiments showed a rapid increase in Aqp2 mRNA, within 3 h of vasopressin exposure. This response was matched by an equally rapid increase in the abundance of the mRNA coding for Cebpb, which we have shown by chromatin immunoprecipitation-sequencing studies to bind downstream from the Aqp2 gene. The identified TFs provide a roadmap for future studies to understand regulation of Aqp2 gene expression.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Abetted by the advent of systems biology-based ("-omics") techniques in the 21st century, there has been a massive expansion of published data relevant to virtually every physiological question. The authors have developed a large-scale data integration approach based on the application of Bayes'' theorem. In the current work, they integrated 12 different -omics data sets to identify the transcription factors most likely to mediate vasopressin-dependent regulation of transcription of the aquaporin-2 gene.

Abstract
Diabetes insipidus is a disorder characterized by excretion of large amounts of hypotonic urine. Four entities have to be differentiated: central diabetes insipidus resulting from a deficiency of the hormone arginine vasopressin (AVP) in the pituitary gland or the hypothalamus, nephrogenic diabetes insipidus resulting from resistance to AVP in the kidneys, gestational diabetes insipidus resulting from an increase in placental vasopressinase and finally primary polydipsia, which involves excessive intake of large amounts of water despite normal AVP secretion and action. Distinguishing between the different types of diabetes insipidus can be challenging. A detailed medical history, physical examination and imaging studies are needed to detect the aetiology of diabetes insipidus. Differentiation between the various forms of hypotonic polyuria is then done by the classical water deprivation test or the more recently developed hypertonic saline or arginine stimulation together with copeptin (or AVP) measurement. In patients with idiopathic central DI, a close follow-up is needed since central DI can be the first sign of an underlying pathology. Treatment of diabetes insipidus or primary polydipsia depends on the underlying aetiology and differs in central diabetes insipidus, nephrogenic diabetes insipidus and primary polydipsia. This review will discuss issues and newest developments in diagnosis, differential diagnosis and treatment, with a focus on central diabetes insipidus.

Ifosfamide-induced nephrogenic diabetes insipidus responsive to supraphysiologic doses of intravenous desmopressin. Clin Nephrol Case Stud 2021; 9:87-92.

Abstract
Nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (DI) refers to the reduction in the ability of the kidney to concentrate urine, which can be caused by partial or complete resistance at the site of action of anti-diuretic hormone (ADH) in the collecting tubules. Ifosfamide-induced nephrogenic DI typically occurs concomitantly in patients who have other signs of tubular toxicity consistent with Fanconi syndrome including glucosuria, aminoaciduria, and hypophosphatemia. We present a case of a 36-year-old female with recurrent synovial cell sarcoma of the pleural membranes, treated with ifosfamide-based chemotherapy, who was admitted to the hospital for the management of polyuria, hypotension, as well as electrolyte derangements including hypokalemia, hypophosphatemia and non-anion gap metabolic acidosis, 1 week after receiving a cumulative ifosfamide dose of 7.5 g/m2. Nephrogenic DI was indicated by polyuria as well as a urine osmolality to plasma osmolality ratio of less than 1.5 following a trial of intravenous desmopressin, but the patient’s acute kidney injury on presentation precluded the early employment of thiazides and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Instead, the patient’s polyuria and urine osmolality improved only after the administration of repetitive supraphysiologic doses of intravenous desmopressin. Our case reiterates that patients with non-hereditary nephrogenic DI may have partial rather than complete resistance to ADH and highlights that desmopressin may be considered in patients with ifosfamide-induced nephrogenic DI to prevent severe volume depletion, especially in patients who have persistent symptomatic polyuria despite maintaining a careful fluid balance and pharmacological therapy with NSAIDs and diuretics, or if the patient’s clinical condition precludes the use of these strategies.

Abstract
PDCD10, also known as CCM3, is a gene found to be associated with the human disease cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs). PDCD10 forms a complex with GCKIII kinases including STK24, STK25, and MST4. Studies in C. elegans and Drosophila have shown a pivotal role of the PDCD10-GCKIII complex in maintaining epithelial integrity. Here, we found that mice deficient of Pdcd10 or Stk24/25 in the kidney tubules developed polyuria and displayed increased water consumption. Although the expression levels of aquaporin genes were not decreased, the levels of total and phosphorylated aquaporin 2 (Aqp2) protein in the apical membrane of tubular epithelial cells were decreased in Pdcd10- and Stk24/25-deficient mice. This loss of Aqp2 was associated with increased expression and membrane targeting of Ezrin and phosphorylated Ezrin, Radixin, Moesin (p-ERM) proteins and impaired intracellular vesicle trafficking. Treatment with Erlotinib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor promoting exocytosis and inhibiting endocytosis, normalized the expression level and membrane abundance of Aqp2 protein, and partially rescued the water reabsorption defect observed in the Pdcd10-deficient mice. Our current study identified the PDCD10-STK-ERM signaling pathway as a potentially novel pathway required for water balance control by regulating vesicle trafficking and protein abundance of AQP2 in the kidneys.

Abstract
TRPC3 is a Ca2+-permeable cation channel commonly activated by the G-protein coupled receptors (GPCR) and mechanical distortion of the plasma membrane. TRPC3-mediated Ca2+ influx has been implicated in a variety of signaling processes in both excitable and non-excitable cells. Kidneys play a commanding role in maintaining whole-body homeostasis and setting blood pressure. TRPC3 is expressed abundantly in the renal vasculature and in epithelial cells, where it is well positioned to mediate signaling and transport functions in response to GPCR-dependent endocrine stimuli. In addition, TRPC3 could be activated by mechanical forces resulting from dynamic changes in the renal tubule fluid flow and osmolarity. This review critically analyzes the available published evidence of the physiological roles of TRPC3 in different parts of the kidney and describes the pathophysiological ramifications of TRPC3 ablation. We also speculate how this evidence could be further translated into the clinic.

Abstract
Aquaporin-2 (AQP2) is a homotetrameric water channel responsible for the final water reuptake in the kidney. Disease-causing AQP2 mutations induce nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI), a condition that challenges the bodily water balance by producing large urinary volumes. In this study, we characterize three new AQP2 mutations identified in our lab from NDI patients (A120D, A130V, T179N) along the previously reported A47V variant. Using Xenopus oocytes, we compared the key functional and biochemical features of these mutations against classical recessive (R187C) and dominant (R254Q) forms, and once again found clear functional recovery features (increased protein stability and function) for all mutations under study. This behaviour, attributed to heteromerization to wt-AQP2, challenge the classical model to NDI which often depicts recessive mutations as ill-structured proteins unable to oligomerize. Consequently, we propose a revised model to the cell pathophysiology of AQP2-related NDI which accounts for the functional recovery of recessive AQP2 mutations.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION In patients with relapsed or refractory lymphoma, high-dose chemoimmunotherapy with subsequent autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is a standard of care. Bendamustine, an alkylating agent, is used in the BeEAM (bendamustine, etoposide, cytarabine, melphalan) protocol for conditioning therapy before autologous HCT in patients with relapsed or refractory lymphoma who are eligible for transplant. There is no consensus regarding an optimal salvage regimen and the approach varies according to toxicity. CASE REPORT We present a case of partial nephrogenic diabetes insipidus after receiving bendamustine, as part of the BeEAM protocol.Management and outcome: The patient was managed with parenteral fluid administration and intranasal desmopressin before the condition resolved on its own. DISCUSSION We summarize published reports of bendamustine-induced diabetes insipidus.

Abstract
Nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI) is characterized by impaired urinary concentrating ability, despite normal or elevated plasma concentrations of the antidiuretic hormone, arginine vasopressin (AVP). NDI can be inherited or acquired. NDI can result from genetic abnormalities, such as mutations in the vasopressin V2 receptor (AVPR2) or the aquaporin-2 (AQP2) water channel, or acquired causes, such as chronic lithium therapy. Congenital NDI is a rare condition. Mutations in AVPR2 are responsible for approximately 90% of patients with congenital NDI, and they have an X-linked pattern of inheritance. In approximately 10% of patients, congenital NDI has an autosomal recessive or dominant pattern of inheritance with mutations in the AQP2 gene. In 2% of cases, the genetic cause is unknown. The main symptoms at presentation include growth retardation, vomiting or feeding concerns, polyuria plus polydipsia, and dehydration. Without treatment, most patients fail to grow normally, and present with associated constipation, urological complication, megacystis, trabeculated bladder, hydroureter, hydronephrosis, and mental retardation. Treatment of NDI consist of sufficient water intake, low-sodium diet, diuretic thiazide, sometimes in combination with a cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitor (indomethacin) or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), or hydrochlorothiazide in combination with amiloride. Some authors note a generally favorable long-term outcome and an apparent loss of efficacy of medical treatment during school age.

Abstract
The molecular mechanisms underlying chronic kidney disease (CKD) are poorly understood and treatment options are limited, a situation underpinning the need for elucidating the causative molecular mechanisms and for identifying innovative treatment options. It is emerging that cyclic 3',5'-adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) signalling occurs in defined cellular compartments within nanometre dimensions in processes whose dysregulation is associated with CKD. cAMP compartmentalization is tightly controlled by a specific set of proteins, including A-kinase anchoring proteins (AKAPs) and phosphodiesterases (PDEs). AKAPs such as AKAP18, AKAP220, AKAP-Lbc and STUB1, and PDE4 coordinate arginine-vasopressin (AVP)-induced water reabsorption by collecting duct principal cells. However, hyperactivation of the AVP system is associated with kidney damage and CKD. Podocyte injury involves aberrant AKAP signalling. cAMP signalling in immune cells can be local and slow the progression of inflammatory processes typical for CKD. A major risk factor of CKD is hypertension. cAMP directs the release of the blood pressure regulator, renin, from juxtaglomerular cells, and plays a role in Na+ reabsorption through ENaC, NKCC2 and NCC in the kidney. Mutations in the cAMP hydrolysing PDE3A that cause lowering of cAMP lead to hypertension. Another major risk factor of CKD is diabetes mellitus. AKAP18 and AKAP150 and several PDEs are involved in insulin release. Despite the increasing amount of data, an understanding of functions of compartmentalized cAMP signalling with relevance for CKD is fragmentary. Uncovering functions will improve the understanding of physiological processes and identification of disease-relevant aberrations may guide towards new therapeutic concepts for the treatment of CKD.

Abstract
Congenital nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by renal inability to concentrate urine. We utilized a multicenter strategy to investigate the genotype and phenotype in a cohort of Chinese children clinically diagnosed with NDI from 2014 to 2019. Ten boys from nine families were identified with mutations in AVPR2 or AQP2 along with dehydration, polyuria-polydipsia, and severe hypernatremia. Genetic screening confirmed the diagnosis of seven additional relatives with partial or subclinical NDI. Protein structural analysis revealed a notable clustering of diagnostic mutations in the transmembrane region of AVPR2 and an enrichment of diagnostic mutations in the C-terminal region of AQP2. The pathogenic variants are significantly more likely to be located inside the domain compared with population variants. Through the structural analysis and in silico prediction, the eight mutations identified in this study were presumed to be disease-causing. The most common treatments were thiazide diuretics and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Emergency treatment for hypernatremia dehydration in neonates should not use isotonic saline as a rehydration fluid. Genetic analysis presumably confirmed the diagnosis of NDI in each patient in our study. We outlined methods for the early identification of NDI through phenotype and genotype, and outlined optimized treatment strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetes insipidus (DI) can be a common cause of polydipsia and polyuria. Here, we present a case of congenital nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (CNDI) accompanied with central diabetes insipidus (CDI) secondary to pituitary surgery. CASE PRESENTATION A 24-year-old Chinese woman came to our hospital with the complaints of polydipsia and polyuria for 6 months. Six months ago, she was detected with pituitary apoplexy, and thereby getting pituitary surgery. However, the water deprivation test demonstrated no significant changes in urine volume and urine gravity in response to fluid depression or AVP administration. In addition, the genetic results confirmed a heterozygous mutation in arginine vasopressin receptor type 2 (AVPR2) genes. CONCLUSIONS She was considered with CNDI as well as acquired CDI secondary to pituitary surgery. She was given with hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) 25 mg twice a day as well as desmopressin (DDAVP, Minirin) 0.1 mg three times a day. There is no recurrence of polyuria or polydipsia observed for more than 6 months. It can be hard to consider AVPR2 mutation in female carriers, especially in those with subtle clinical presentation. Hence, direct detection of DNA sequencing with AVPR2 is a convenient and accurate method in CNDI diagnosis.

Abstract
The kidney tubules provide homeostasis by maintaining the external milieu that is critical for proper cellular function. Without homeostasis, there would be no heartbeat, no muscle movement, no thought, sensation, or emotion. The task is achieved by an orchestra of proteins, directly or indirectly involved in the tubular transport of water and solutes. Inherited tubulopathies are characterized by impaired function of one or more of these specific transport molecules. The clinical consequences can range from isolated alterations in the concentration of specific solutes in blood or urine to serious and life-threatening disorders of homeostasis. In this review, we focus on genetic aspects of the tubulopathies and how genetic investigations and kidney physiology have crossfertilized each other and facilitated the identification of these disorders and their molecular basis. In turn, clinical investigations of genetically defined patients have shaped our understanding of kidney physiology.

Abstract
Diabetes insipidus (DI) is characterised by thirst and polydipsia with hypotonic polyuria. Several forms exist, namely, central or pituitary, nephrogenic and gestational and must be differentiated for adequate treatment. We describe the case of a 41-year-old woman chronically infected with HIV who had been recently medicated with a tenofovir-based antiretroviral treatment and who, at 22 weeks of pregnancy, presented with transient gestational DI. Obstetric ultrasound revealed oligohydramnios and foetal growth restriction that did not improve despite serum sodium correction. The severity of the case suggested the presence of an underlying disorder and elevated copeptin levels indicated that an underlying subclinical form of nephrogenic DI, possibly induced by HIV-related nephropathy or tenofovir use, was present and rendered clinically overt during pregnancy.

Abstract
Aquaporins (AQPs), as transmembrane proteins, were primarily identified as water channels with the ability of regulating the transmission of water, glycerol, urea, and other small-sized molecules. The classic view of AQPs involvement in therapeutic plan restricted them and their regulators into managing only a narrow spectrum of the diseases such as diabetes insipidus and the syndrome of inappropriate ADH secretion. However, further investigations performed, especially in the third millennium, has found that their cooperation in water transmission control can be manipulated to handle other burden-imposing diseases such as cirrhosis, heart failure, Meniere's disease, cancer, bullous pemphigoid, eczema, and Sjögren's syndrome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Many drugs used in psychiatry have been reported to cause hyponatraemia. However, lithium may be an exception due to its potential for causing nephrogenic diabetes insipidus, but clinical data are largely absent. The objective of this investigation was to study the association between lithium therapy and hospitalization due to hyponatraemia. METHODS This study was a register-based case-control investigation of the general Swedish population. Patients hospitalized with a principal diagnosis of hyponatraemia (n=11,213) were compared with matched controls (n=44,801). Analyses using multivariable logistic regression adjusting for co-medication, diseases, previous hospitalizations and socioeconomic factors were deployed to calculate the association between severe hyponatraemia and the use of lithium. Additionally, newly initiated (⩽90 days) and ongoing lithium therapy was studied separately. RESULTS Compared with controls, the unadjusted odds ratio (OR) (95% confidence interval (CI)) for hospitalization due to hyponatraemia was 1.07 (0.70-1.59) for lithium. However, after adjustment for confounding factors the risk was reduced (adjusted OR: 0.53 (0.31-0.87)). Newly initiated lithium therapy was not significantly associated with hyponatraemia (adjusted OR 0.73 (0.35-5.38)). In contrast, for ongoing therapy the corresponding adjusted OR was significantly reduced (adjusted OR: 0.52 (0.30-0.87)). CONCLUSIONS A marked inverse association was found between ongoing lithium therapy and hospitalization due to hyponatraemia.

Abstract
Background: Congenital nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (CNDI) is a rare inherited disease that is caused by mutations in arginine vasopressin receptor 2 (AVPR2) or aquaporin 2 (AQP2). Functional analysis of the mutated receptor is necessary to verify the impact of the mutation on receptor function and suggest some possible therapeutic strategies for specific functional defects. Methods: Family history and clinical information were collected. Whole-exome sequencing and sanger sequencing were performed to determine the potential genetic cause of diabetes insipidus. The identified variant was classified according to the American College of Medical Genetics (ACMG) criteria. Bioinformatic analysis was performed to predict the function of the identified variation. Moreover, wild-type and mutated AVPR2 vectors were constructed and transfection to HEK-293T cells. Immunofluorescence experiments were performed to investigate the expression and localization of the mutated protein and cAMP parameter assays were used to measure its activity in response to AVP. Results: The heights of the adult members affected with polyuria and polydipsia were normal, but all affected children had growth retardation. Next-generation sequencing identified a novel mutation in AVPR2 gene (c.530T > A) in this family. Bioinformatic analysis indicated that the mutation in AVPR2 changed the hydropathic characteristic of the protein and was probably deleterious. Although immunofluorescence showed that the mutated AVPR2 was normally expressed in the cell surface, the intracellular cAMP concentration stimulated by AVP was significantly lower in cells transfected with mutated AVPR2 than cells transfected with wild-type AVPR2. Based on the ACMG criteria, the novel c.530T > A variant of the AVPR2 gene was likely pathogenic and the affected family members were diagnosed as CNDI. After the confirmation of the diagnosis, the proband was treated with compound amiloride hydrochloride and rhGH, the symptoms of polyuria, polydipsia and growth retardation were all improved. Conclusion: These findings suggested that the novel mutation in AVPR2 (c.530T > A) was a true disease-causing variant with mild effects, which could be classified as a type III mutant receptor. Moreover, investigations of the function of growth hormone axis could be important for the pediatric CNDI patients with extreme short stature, and rhGH treatment might improve the final adult heights in these patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Mutations in AQP2 (aquaporin-2) lead to rare congenital nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI), which has been limitedly studied in Chinese population. METHODS Twenty-five subjects from seven families with NDI in a department (Beijing, PUMCH) were screened for AQP2 mutations. Clinical characteristics were described and genotype-phenotype correlation analysis was performed. RESULTS We identified 9 AQP2 mutations in 13 patients with NDI, including 3 novel AQP2 mutations (p.G165D, p.Q255RfsTer72 and IVS3-3delC). Missense mutations were the most common mutation type, followed by splicing mutations, and frameshift mutations caused by small deletion or insertion. The onset-age in our patients was younger than 1 year old. Common manifestations included polydipsia, polyuria (7/7) and intermittent fever (6/7). Less common presentations included short stature (3/7) and mental impairment (1/7). High osmotic hypernatremia and low osmotic urine were the main biochemical features. Dilation of the urinary tract was a common complication of NDI (3/6). Level of serum sodium in NDI patients with compound het AQP2 mutations was higher than non-compound het mutations. CONCLUSION In the first and largest case series of NDI caused by AQP2 mutation in Chinese population, we identified 9 AQP2 mutations, including 3 novel mutations. Phenotype was found to correlate with genotypes, revealed by higher level of serum sodium in patients with compound het AQP2 mutations than non-compound het mutations. This knowledge broadens genotypic and phenotypic spectrum for rare congenital NDI and provided basis for studying molecular biology of AQP2.

Abstract
Atrazine (ATR), a ubiquitous environmental contaminant in water and soil, causes environmental nephrosis. To reveal the toxic effect of ATR on the kidney and the potential chemical nephroprotective effect of lycopene (LYC), Kun-Ming mice of specific pathogen-free (SPF) grade were treated with LYC (5 mg kg-1) and/or ATR (50 mg kg-1 or 200 mg kg-1) for 21 days. The degree of renal injury was evaluated by measuring the ion concentration, ATPase activities and the mRNA expressions/levels of associated ATPase subunits. In addition, the expression of renal aquaporins (AQPs) was analyzed. The results showed that the renal tubular epithelial cells of ATR-exposed mice were swollen, the glomeruli were significantly atrophied, and the ion concentrations were obviously changed. The activity of Na+-K+-ATPase and the transcription of its subunits were downregulated. The activity of Ca2+-Mg2+-ATPase and the transcription of its subunits were upregulated. The expression of AQPs, especially the critical AQP2, was affected. Notably, ATR-induced nephrotoxicity was significantly improved by LYC supplementation. Therefore, LYC could protect the kidney against ATR-induced nephrotoxicity via maintaining ionic homeostasis, reversing the changes in ATPase activity and controlling the expression of AQPs on the cell membrane. These results suggested that AQP2 was a target of LYC and protected against ATR-induced renal ionic homeostasis disturbance.

[PMID: 33392325 PMCID: PMC7760441 DOI: 10.12998/wjcc.v8.i24.6418] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2020] [Revised: 10/06/2020] [Accepted: 10/26/2020] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Congenital nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (CNDI) is a rare hereditary renal disorder that is caused by mutations in AVPR2 or aquaporin 2 (AQP2). Up to now, there are few reports about CNDI in neonates. Early clinical manifestations of CNDI in neonates are atypical. A lack of understanding of the disease by clinicians causes frequent misdiagnoses or missed diagnoses, which may result in failure to administer treatments in time and ultimately leads to severe complications. In this study, clinical data of a case of AVPR2 gene mutation-induced CNDI, which was confirmed by genetic testing, were retrospectively analyzed to improve our understanding of this disease.
CASE SUMMARY On February 1, 2020, a male neonate was hospitalized 17 d after birth due to a 7 d period of pyrexia. The patient’s symptoms included recurrent pyrexia, hypernatremia and hyperchloremia, which were difficult to treat. The patient was fed on demand, and water was additionally provided between milk intakes. A combination treatment of hydrochlorothiazide and amiloride was administered. After the treatment, body temperature and electrolyte levels returned to normal, the volume of urine was significantly reduced and the patient was subsequently discharged. Genetic tests confirmed that the patient carried the AVPR2 gene missense mutation c.541C>T (P.R181C), and the patient’s mother carried a heterozygous mutation at the same locus. After clinical treatment with a combination of hydrochlorothiazide and amiloride, the body temperature and electrolyte levels returned to normal. Up until the most recent follow-up examination, normal body temperature, electrolyte levels and growth and development were observed.
CONCLUSION CNDI in the neonatal period is rare, and its clinical manifestations are unspecific with some patients merely showing recurrent fever and electrolyte disturbance. Genetic testing of AVPR2 and AQP2 can be used for screening and genetic diagnosis of CNDI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Primary nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI) is a rare disorder and little is known about treatment practices and long-term outcome. METHODS Paediatric and adult nephrologists contacted through European professional organizations entered data in an online form. RESULTS Data were collected on 315 patients (22 countries, male 84%, adults 35%). Mutation testing had been performed in 270 (86%); pathogenic variants were identified in 258 (96%). The median (range) age at diagnosis was 0.6 (0.0-60) years and at last follow-up 14.0 (0.1-70) years. In adults, height was normal with a mean (standard deviation) score of -0.39 (±1.0), yet there was increased prevalence of obesity (body mass index >30 kg/m2; 41% versus 16% European average; P < 0.001). There was also increased prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) Stage ≥2 in children (32%) and adults (48%). Evidence of flow uropathy was present in 38%. A higher proportion of children than adults (85% versus 54%; P < 0.001) received medications to reduce urine output. Patients ≥25 years were less likely to have a university degree than the European average (21% versus 35%; P = 0.003) but full-time employment was similar. Mental health problems, predominantly attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (16%), were reported in 36% of patients. CONCLUSION This large NDI cohort shows an overall favourable outcome with normal adult height and only mild to moderate CKD in most. Yet, while full-time employment was similar to the European average, educational achievement was lower, and more than half had urological and/or mental health problems.

Acute Kidney Injury Caused by Obstructive Nephropathy. Int J Nephrol 2020; 2020:8846622.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury secondary to obstructive nephropathy is a frequent event that accounts for 5 to 10% of all acute kidney injury cases and has a great impact on the morbidity and mortality in those affected. The obstruction in the urinary tract has a profound impact on kidney function due to damage produced by ischemic and inflammatory factors that have been associated with intense fibrosis. This pathology is characterized by its effects on the management of fluids, electrolytes, and the acid-base mechanisms by the renal tubule; consequently, metabolic acidosis, hyperkalemia, uremia, and anuria are seen during acute kidney injury due to obstructive nephropathy, and after drainage, polyuria may occur. Acute urine retention is the typical presentation. The diagnosis consists of a complete medical history and should include changes in urinary voiding and urgency and enuresis, history of urinary tract infections, hematuria, renal lithiasis, prior urinary interventions, and constipation. Imaging studies included tomography or ultrasound in which hydronephrosis can be seen. Management includes, in addition to drainage of the obstructed urinary tract system, providing supportive treatment, correcting all the metabolic abnormalities, and initiating renal replacement therapy when required. Although its recovery is in most cases favorable, it seems to be an undervalued event in nephrology and urology. This is because it is mistakenly believed that the resolution and recovery of kidney function is complete once the urinary tract is unobstructed. It can have serious kidney sequelae. In this review, we report the epidemiology, incidence, pathophysiological mechanisms, diagnosis, and treatment of acute kidney injury due to obstructive nephropathy.

Abstract
There are approximately 800 annotated G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) genes, making these membrane receptors members of the most abundant gene family in the human genome. Besides being involved in manifold physiologic functions and serving as important pharmacotherapeutic targets, mutations in 55 GPCR genes cause about 66 inherited monogenic diseases in humans. Alterations of nine GPCR genes are causatively involved in inherited digenic diseases. In addition to classic gain- and loss-of-function variants, other aspects, such as biased signaling, trans-signaling, ectopic expression, allele variants of GPCRs, pseudogenes, gene fusion, and gene dosage, contribute to the repertoire of GPCR dysfunctions. However, the spectrum of alterations and GPCR involvement is probably much larger because an additional 91 GPCR genes contain homozygous or hemizygous loss-of-function mutations in human individuals with currently unidentified phenotypes. This review highlights the complexity of genomic alteration of GPCR genes as well as their functional consequences and discusses derived therapeutic approaches. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: With the advent of new transgenic and sequencing technologies, the number of monogenic diseases related to G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) mutants has significantly increased, and our understanding of the functional impact of certain kinds of mutations has substantially improved. Besides the classical gain- and loss-of-function alterations, additional aspects, such as biased signaling, trans-signaling, ectopic expression, allele variants of GPCRs, uniparental disomy, pseudogenes, gene fusion, and gene dosage, need to be elaborated in light of GPCR dysfunctions and possible therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Central diabetes insipidus is a heterogeneous condition characterized by decreased release of antidiuretic hormone by the neurohypophysis resulting in a urine concentration deficit with variable degrees of polyuria. The most common causes include idiopathic diabetes insipidus, tumors or infiltrative diseases, neurosurgery and trauma. Temozolomide is an oral DNA-alkylating agent capable of crossing the blood-brain barrier and used as chemotherapy primarily to treat glioblastoma and other brain cancers. CASES Two men (aged 38 and 54 years) suddenly developed polyuria and polydispsia approximately four weeks after the initiation of temozolomide for a glioblastoma. Plasma and urine parameters demonstrated the presence of a urinary concentration defect. MANAGEMENT The clinical and laboratory abnormalities completely resolved with intranasal desmopressin therapy, allowing the continuation of temozolomide. The disorder did not relapse after cessation of temozolomide and desmopressin and relapsed in one patient after rechallenge with temozolomide. DISCUSSION Our report highlights the importance of a quick recognition of this exceptional complication, in order to initiate promptly treatment with desmopressin and to maintain therapy with temozolomide.

Abstract
Nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI) is characterized by renal resistance to the antidiuretic hormone arginine vasopressin (AVP), which leads to polyuria, plasma hyperosmolarity, polydipsia, and impaired quality of living. Inherited forms are caused by X-linked loss-of-function mutations in the gene encoding the vasopressin 2 receptor (V2R) or autosomal recessive/dominant mutations in the gene encoding aquaporin 2 (AQP2). A common acquired form is lithium-induced NDI. AVP facilitates reabsorption of water through increased abundance and insertion of AQP2 in the apical membrane of principal cells in the collecting ducts. In X-linked NDI, V2R is dysfunctional, which leads to impaired water reabsorption. These patients have functional AQP2, and thus the challenge is to achieve AQP2 membrane insertion independently of V2R. The current treatment is symptomatic and is based on distally acting diuretics (thiazide or amiloride) and cyclooxygenase inhibitors (indomethacin). This mini-review covers published data from trials in preclinical in vivo models and a few human intervention studies to improve NDI by more causal approaches. Promising effects on NDI in preclinical studies have been demonstrated by the use of pharmacological approaches with secretin, Wnt5a, protein kinase A agonist, fluconazole, prostaglandin E2 EP2 and EP4 agonists, statins, metformin, and soluble prorenin receptor agonists. In patients, only casuistic reports have evaluated the effect of statins, phosphodiesterase inhibitors (rolipram and sildenafil), and the guanylate cyclase stimulator riociguat without amelioration of symptoms. It is concluded that there is currently no established intervention that causally improves symptoms or quality of life in patients with NDI. There is a need to collaborate to improve study quality and conduct formal trials.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Diabetes insipidus can be a common cause of polyuria and hydronephrosis in the kidneys. However, there is few reported case of urinary obstruction induced nephrogenic diabetes insipidus. PATIENT CONCERNS A 60-year-old Chinese man came to our hospital with the complaints of polydipsia and polyuria for 1 month. His examination showed chronic kidney disease stage III with eGFR of 48.274 ml/min, and the plasma osmolality was 338.00 mOsm/(kg·H2O) with a urinary osmolality of 163.00 mOsm/(kg·H2O). Moreover, imagological examination of the urinary system showed benign prostatic hyperplasia and hydronephrosis. DIAGNOSIS He was considered with benign prostatic hyperplasia induced ureter hydronephrosis and nephrogenic diabetes insipidus. INTERVENTIONS He got the transurethral resection of the prostate to alleviate urinary retention. OUTCOMES After that, the urine output gradually decreased, and the administered hydrochlorothiazide was stopped due to the improved renal function. CONCLUSION Our study presents a case of nephrogenic diabetes insipidus caused by urinary obstruction. Differential diagnoses for diabetes insipidus as well as the relationship between nephrogenic diabetes insipidus and urinary obstruction are also considered in this study.

Abstract
Loss of function of arginine vasopressin receptor 2 (AVPR2) may affect the recognition and binding of arginine vasopressin (AVP) which, in turn, may prevent the activation of Gs/adenylate cyclase and reduce the reabsorption of water by renal tubules and combined tubes. Finally, the organism may suffer from nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI), a kind of kidney disorder featured by polyuria and polydipsia, due to a break of water homeostasis. In this study, we enrolled a Chinese family with polyuria and polydipsia. The proband presented abnormal fluid intake and excessive urine output. A water deprivation and AVP stimulation test further indicated that this patient had NDI. By sequencing known causative genes for diabetes insipidus, we identified a novel mutation in AVPR2 (c.547G>A; p.V183M) in the family. This mutation, located in a conserved site of AVPR2 and predicted to be disease-causing by informatics programs, was absent in our 200 controls and other public databases. Our study not only further confirms the clinical diagnosis, but also expands the spectrum of AVPR2 mutations and contributes to genetic diagnosis and counseling of patients with NDI.

Abstract
The two main differential diagnoses of central diabetes insipidus are nephrogenic diabetes insipidus and primary polydipsia. Reliable distinction between those entities is essential as treatment differs substantially with the wrong treatment potentially leading to serious complications. Past diagnostic measures using the indirect water deprivation test had several pitfalls, resulting in a low diagnostic accuracy. With the introduction of copeptin, a stable and reliable surrogate marker for arginine vasopressin, diagnosis of diabetes insipidus was new evaluated. While unstimulated basal copeptin measurement reliably diagnoses nephrogenic diabetes insipidus, a stimulation test is needed to differentiate patients with central diabetes insipidus from patients with primary polydipsia. Stimulation can either be achieved through hypertonic saline infusion or arginine infusion. While the former showed high diagnostic accuracy and superiority over the indirect water deprivation test in a recent validation study, the diagnostic accuracy for arginine-stimulated copeptin was slightly lower, but superior in test tolerance. In summary of the recent findings, a new copeptin based diagnostic algorithm is proposed for the reliable diagnosis of diabetes insipidus.

Abstract
The differential diagnosis of diabetes insipidus involves the distinction between central or nephrogenic diabetes insipidus and primary polydipsia. Differentiation is important because treatment strategies vary; the wrong treatment can be dangerous. Reliable differentiation is difficult especially in patients with primary polydipsia or partial forms of diabetes insipidus. New diagnostic algorithms are based on the measurement of copeptin after osmotic stimulation by hypertonic saline infusion or after nonosmotic stimulation by arginine and have a higher diagnostic accuracy than the water deprivation test. Treatment involves correcting preexisting water deficits, but is different for central diabetes insipidus, nephrogenic diabetes insipidus, and primary polydipsia.

Abstract
Objectives Congenital nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI) is a rare hereditary disorder which is characterized by unresponsiveness to arginine vasopressin (AVP) in collecting ducts and leads to polyuria and polydipsia. The wide clinical spectrum of congenital NDI can cause difficulties in early diagnosis. We aimed to evaluate clinical prognosis of children with congenital NDI in long-term period. Methods Nineteen children with congenital NDI followed up in Pediatric Nephrology Department were enrolled to the study. This study is a single-center retrospective study, which reports clinical follow-up and genetic results of children with congenital NDI. Results Presenting symptoms of patients were mostly dehydration and fever due to polyuria and polydipsia. Four male patients had bilateral nonobstructive hydroureteronephrosis (HUN) and neurogenic bladder which requires clean intermittent catheterization (CIC). One patient had intracranial calcification which is a rarely seen complication in congenital NDI due to recurrent hypernatremic dehydration and severe brain dehydration. The causative mutations were identified in all patients. The identified mutations in six of them (31.6%) were hemizygous mutations in AVPR2 gene and homozygous mutations of AQP2 gene in the rest 13 cases (68.4%). More than that, four of these mutations (two in AVPR2 and two in AQP2) were novel mutations. Noncompliance with the treatments is associated with high risk of morbidity due to neurogenic bladder and chronic kidney disease (CKD). Conclusions The prognosis of congenital NDI is good when diagnosis can be made early and treatment is started immediately. Genetic counseling and prenatal testing for hereditary diseases are recommended especially in regions with relatively higher rates of consanguineous marriages.

Abstract
Patients affected by nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (NDI) can present with hypernatremic dehydration, and first-line rehydration schemes are completely different from those largely applied in usual conditions determining a mild to severe hypovolemic dehydration/shock. In reporting the case of a patient affected by NDI and presenting with severe dehydration triggered by acute pharyngotonsillitis and vomiting, we want to underline the difficulties in managing this condition. Restoring the free-water plasma amount in patients affected by NDI may not be easy, but some key points can help in the first line management of these patients: (1) hypernatremic dehydration should always be suspected; (2) even in presence of severe dehydration, skin turgor may be normal and therefore the skinfold recoll should not be considered in the dehydration assessment; (3) decreased thirst is an important red flag for dehydration; (4) if an incontinent patient with NDI appears to be dehydrated, it is important to place the urethral catheter to accurately measure urine output and to be guided in parenteral fluid administration; (5) if the intravenous route is necessary, the more appropriate fluid replenishment is 5% dextrose in water with an infusion rate that should slightly exceed the urine output; (6) the 0.9% NaCl solution (10 mL/kg) should only be used to restore the volemia in a shocked NDI patient; and (7) it could be useful to stop indomethacin administration until complete restoration of hydration status to avoid a possible worsening of a potential prerenal acute renal failure.

Abstract
Vasopressin receptor 2 (V2R) mutations causing the nephrogenic syndrome of inappropriate antidiuresis (NSIAD) can generate two constitutively active receptor phenotypes. One type results from residue substitutions in several V2R domains and is sensitive to vaptan inverse agonists. The other is only caused by Arg 137 replacements and is vaptan resistant. We compared constitutive and agonist-driven interactions of the vaptan-sensitive F229V and vaptan-resistant R137C/L V2R mutations with β-arrestin 1, β-arrestin 2, and Gαs, using null fibroblasts reconstituted with individual versions of the ablated transduction protein genes. F229V displayed very high level of constitutive activation for Gs but not for β-arrestins, and enhanced or normal responsiveness to agonists and inverse agonists. In contrast, R137C/L mutants exhibited maximal levels of constitutive activation for βarrestin 2 and Gs, minimal levels for β-arrestin 1, but a sharp decline of ligands sensitivity at all transducer interactions. The enhanced constitutive activity and reduced ligand sensitivity of R137 mutants on cAMP signaling persisted in cells lacking β-arrestins, indicating that these are intrinsic molecular properties of the mutations, not the consequence of altered receptor trafficking. The results suggest that the two groups of NSIAD mutations represent two distinct molecular mechanisms of constitutive activation in GPCRs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND As the glomerular filtrate passes through the nephron and into the renal medulla, electrolytes, water, and urea are reabsorbed through the concerted actions of solute carrier channels and aquaporins at various positions along the nephron and in the outer and inner medulla. Proliferating stem cells expressing the nuclear transcription factor Pax2 give rise to renal epithelial cells. Pax2 expression ends once the epithelial cells differentiate into mature proximal and distal tubules, whereas expression of the related Pax8 protein continues. The collecting tubules and renal medulla are derived from Pax2-positive ureteric bud epithelia that continue to express Pax2 and Pax8 in adult kidneys. Despite the crucial role of Pax2 in renal development, functions for Pax2 or Pax8 in adult renal epithelia have not been established. METHODS To examine the roles of Pax2 and Pax8 in the adult mouse kidney, we deleted either Pax2, Pax8, or both genes in adult mice and examined the resulting phenotypes and changes in gene expression patterns. We also explored the mechanism of Pax8-mediated activation of potential target genes in inner medullary collecting duct cells. RESULTS Mice with induced deletions of both Pax2 and Pax8 exhibit severe polyuria that can be attributed to significant changes in the expression of solute carriers, such as the urea transporters encoded by Slc14a2, as well as aquaporins within the inner and outer medulla. Furthermore, Pax8 expression is induced by high-salt levels in collecting duct cells and activates the Slc14a2 gene by recruiting a histone methyltransferase complex to the promoter. CONCLUSIONS These data reveal novel functions for Pax proteins in adult renal epithelia that are essential for retaining water and concentrating urine.

Abstract
Recent experiments using optogenetic tools facilitate the identification and functional analysis of thirst neurons and vasopressin-producing neurons. Four major advances provide a detailed anatomy and physiology of thirst, taste for water, and arginine-vasopressin (AVP) release: ( a) Thirst and AVP release are regulated by the classical homeostatic, interosensory plasma osmolality negative feedback as well as by novel, exterosensory, anticipatory signals. These anticipatory signals for thirst and vasopressin release concentrate on the same homeostatic neurons and circumventricular organs that monitor the composition of blood. ( b) Acid-sensing taste receptor cells (TRCs) expressing otopetrin 1 on type III presynaptic TRCs on the tongue, which were previously suggested as the sour taste sensors, also mediate taste responses to water. ( c) Dehydration is aversive, and median preoptic nucleus (MnPO) neuron activity is proportional to the intensity of this aversive state. ( d) MnPOGLP1R neurons serve as a central detector that discriminates fluid ingestion from solid ingestion, which promotes acute satiation of thirst through the subfornical organ and other downstream targets.
