AACE Clin Case Rep 2024; 10:136-139.

Abstract
Background Due to the high prevalence of hypertension in patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) and advanced chronic kidney disease, diagnosing secondary hypertension poses challenges. We present a rare case of pheochromocytoma in an ADPKD patient to highlight the diagnostic difficulties in identifying secondary hypertension due to pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma (PPGL) in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients. Case Report A 48-year-old female with ADPKD and ESRD experienced recurrent hypertensive crises (up to 220/135 mmHg) accompanied by palpitations and tremors that recurred over the past 2 years. Introduction of a betablocker to the antihypertensive therapy aggravated her symptoms. The initial documentation of elevated urinary metanephrines was interpreted as false positive finding due to renal failure. Subsequent measurements of free plasma metanephrines revealed significant elevations raising suspicion of PPGL. Magnetic resonance imaging identified a 29 mm right adrenal mass. The patient underwent right adrenalectomy resulting in resolution of the hypertensive crises. Discussion The diagnosis of PPGLs can present significant challenges and is further complicated in ESRD due to nonspecific clinical symptoms and diagnostic pitfalls. Less than 20 PPGL cases have been reported in patients with ESRD. The intolerance of beta-blocker therapy, as well as the use of a scoring system for the likelihood of PPGL should have raised suspicion. Conclusion PPGL should be considered in all patients with uncontrolled hypertension and beta-blockers intolerance, even in the presence of other etiologic mechanisms such as ESRD. Measuring free plasma metanephrines provides the most reliable biochemical screening in the context of impaired renal function.

Abstract
Cardiovascular complications are the most common cause of mortality in patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). Hypertension is seen in 70% of patients by the age of 30 prior to decline in kidney function. The natriuretic peptides (NPs), atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), are released by cardiomyocytes in response to membrane stretch, increasing urinary excretion of sodium and water. Mice heterozygous for Pkd2 have attenuated NP responses and we hypothesized that cardiomyocyte-localized polycystin proteins contribute to production of NPs. Cardiomyocyte-specific knock-out models of polycystin-2 (PC2), one of the causative genes of ADPKD, demonstrate diurnal hypertension. These mice have decreased ANP and BNP expression in the left ventricle. Analysis of the pathways involved in production, maturation, and activity of NPs identified decreased transcription of CgB, PCSK6, and NFAT genes in cPC2-KOs. Engineered heart tissue with human iPSCs driven into cardiomyocytes with CRISPR/Cas9 KO of PKD2 failed to produce ANP. These results suggest that PC2 in cardiomyocytes are involved in NP production and lack of cardiac PC2 predisposes to a hypertensive volume expanded phenotype, which may contribute to the development of hypertension in ADPKD.

Abstract
Patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease benefit from specialized care over their lifetimes, starting with diagnosis of the condition with ongoing discussion of both the renal course and extra-renal issues. Both renal and extra-renal issues may continue to cause major morbidity even after successful kidney transplant or initiation of RRT, and extra-renal disease aspects should always be considered as part of routine management. In this review, we will focus on updates in pain/depression screening, cardiac manifestations, liver and pancreatic cysts, kidney stone management, and genetic counseling. In some instances, we have shared our current clinical practice rather than an evidence-based guideline. We anticipate more standardization of care after the release of the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes guidelines for management in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease later this year.

Feasibility and impact of ketogenic dietary interventions in polycystic kidney disease: KETO-ADPKD-a randomized controlled trial. Cell Rep Med 2023; 4:101283.

Abstract
Ketogenic dietary interventions (KDIs) are beneficial in animal models of autosomal-dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). KETO-ADPKD, an exploratory, randomized, controlled trial, is intended to provide clinical translation of these findings (NCT04680780). Sixty-six patients were randomized to a KDI arm (ketogenic diet [KD] or water fasting [WF]) or the control group. Both interventions induce significant ketogenesis on the basis of blood and breath acetone measurements. Ninety-five percent (KD) and 85% (WF) report the diet as feasible. KD leads to significant reductions in body fat and liver volume. Additionally, KD is associated with reduced kidney volume (not reaching statistical significance). Interestingly, the KD group exhibits improved kidney function at the end of treatment, while the control and WF groups show a progressive decline, as is typical in ADPKD. Safety-relevant events are largely mild, expected (initial flu-like symptoms associated with KD), and transient. Safety assessment is complemented by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) lipid profile analyses.

Case report: Genotype-phenotype characteristics of nine novel PKD1 mutations in eight Chinese patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease. Front Med (Lausanne) 2023; 10:1268307. [PMID: 37901409 PMCID: PMC10600478 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2023.1268307] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/27/2023] [Accepted: 09/18/2023] [Indexed: 10/31/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a common genetic disorder. The PKD1 gene is responsible for the majority of ADPKD cases, and the mutations in this gene exhibit high genetic diversity. This study aimed to investigate the association between genotype and phenotype in ADPKD patients with PKD1 gene mutations through pedigree analysis. Methods Eight Chinese pedigrees affected by ADPKD were analyzed using whole-exome sequencing (WES) on peripheral blood DNA. The identified variants were validated using Sanger sequencing, and clinical data from the patients and their families were collected and analyzed. Results Nine novel mutation sites in PKD1 were discovered across the pedigrees, including c.4247T > G, c.3298_3301delGAGT, c.4798A > G, c.7567G > A, c.11717G > C, c.7703 + 5G > C, c.3296G > A, c.8515_8516insG, and c.5524C > A. These mutations were found to be associated with a range of clinical phenotypes, including chronic kidney disease, hypertension, and polycystic liver. The age of onset and disease progression displayed significant heterogeneity among the pedigrees, with some individuals exhibiting early onset and rapid disease progression, while others remained asymptomatic or had milder disease symptoms. Inheritance patterns supported autosomal dominant inheritance, as affected individuals inherited the mutations from affected parents. However, there were instances of individuals carrying the mutations who remained asymptomatic or exhibited milder disease phenotypes. Conclusion This study highlights the importance of comprehensive genotype analysis in understanding the progression and prognosis of ADPKD. The identification of novel mutation sites expands our knowledge of PKD1 gene mutations. These findings contribute to a better understanding of the disease and may have implications for personalized therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease is the most commonly inherited disease of the kidneys affecting an estimated 12,000,000 people in the world. Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease is a systemic disease, with a wide range of associated features that includes hypertension, valvular heart diseases, cerebral aneurysms, aortic aneurysms, liver cysts, abdominal hernias, diverticulosis, gross hematuria, urinary tract infections, nephrolithiasis, pancreatic cysts, and seminal vesicle cysts. The cardiovascular anomalies are somewhat different than in the general population and also chronic kidney disease population, with higher morbidity and mortality rates. This review will focus on cardiovascular diseases associated with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease and their management.

Abstract
Autosomal-dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is characterized by bilateral kidney cysts that ultimately lead to end-stage kidney disease. While the major causative genes of ADPKD are PKD1 and PKD2, other genes are also thought to be involved. Fifty ADPKD patients were analyzed by exome sequencing or multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA), followed by long polymerase chain reaction and Sanger sequencing. Variants in PKD1 or PKD2 or GANAB were detected in 35 patients (70%). Exome sequencing identified 24, 7, and 1 variants in PKD1, PKD2, and GANAB, respectively, in 30 patients. MLPA analyses identified large deletions in PKD1 in three patients and PKD2 in two patients. We searched 90 cyst-associated genes in 15 patients who were negative by exome sequencing and MLPA analyses, and identified 17 rare variants. Four of them were considered "likely pathogenic" or "pathogenic" variants according to the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics guidelines. Of the 11 patients without a family history, four, two, and four variants were found in PKD1, PKD2, and other genes, respectively, while no causative gene was identified in one patient. While the pathogenicity of each variant in these genes should be carefully assessed, a comprehensive genetic analysis may be useful in cases of atypical ADPKD.

Identification and Characterization of Novel Mutations in Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) and Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) in Saudi Subjects by Whole-Exome Sequencing. MEDICINA (KAUNAS, LITHUANIA) 2022; 58:medicina58111657. [PMID: 36422197 PMCID: PMC9692281 DOI: 10.3390/medicina58111657] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/07/2022] [Revised: 11/12/2022] [Accepted: 11/13/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
Background: Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a condition usually caused by a single gene mutation and manifested by both renal and extrarenal features, eventually leading to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) by the median age of 60 years worldwide. Approximately 89% of ADPKD patients had either PKD1 or PKD2 gene mutations. The majority (85%) of the mutations are in the PKD1 gene, especially in the context of family history. Objectives: This study investigated the genetic basis and the undiscovered genes that are involved in ADPKD development among the Saudi population. Materials and Methods: In this study, 11 patients with chronic kidney disease were enrolled. The diagnosis of ADPKD was based on history and diagnostic images: CT images include enlargement of renal outlines, renal echogenicity, and presence of multiple renal cysts with dilated collecting ducts, loss of corticomedullary differentiation, and changes in GFR and serum creatinine levels. Next-generation whole-exome sequencing was conducted using the Ion Torrent PGM platform. Results: Of the 11 Saudi patients diagnosed with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and ADPKD, the most common heterozygote nonsynonymous variant in the PKD1 gene was exon15: (c.4264G > A). Two missense mutations were identified with a PKD1 (c.1758A > C and c.9774T > G), and one patient had a PKD2 mutation (c.1445T > G). Three detected variants were novel, identified at PKD1 (c.1758A > C), PKD2L2 (c.1364A > T), and TSC2 (deletion of a’a at the 3’UTR, R1680C) genes. Other variants in PKD1L1 (c.3813_381 4delinsTG) and PKD1L2 (c.404C > T) were also detected. The median age of end-stage renal disease for ADPK patients in Saudi Arabia was 30 years. Conclusion: This study reported a common variant in the PKD1 gene in Saudi patients with typical ADPKD. We also reported (to our knowledge) for the first time two novel missense variants in PKD1 and PKD2L2 genes and one indel mutation at the 3’UTR of the TSC2 gene. This study establishes that the reported mutations in the affected genes resulted in ADPKD development in the Saudi population by a median age of 30. Nevertheless, future protein−protein interaction studies to investigate the influence of these mutations on PKD1 and PKD2 functions are required. Furthermore, large-scale population-based studies to verify these findings are recommended.

Abstract
Cardiovascular abnormalities, such as left ventricular hypertrophy and valvular disorders, particularly mitral valve prolapse, have been described as highly prevalent among adult patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). The present study aimed to assess echocardiographic parameters in a large sample of both normotensive and hypertensive ADPKD patients, regardless of kidney function level, and evaluate their association with clinical and laboratorial parameters. A retrospective study consisted of the analysis of clinical, laboratorial, and transthoracic echocardiograms data retrieved from the medical records of young adult ADPKD outpatients. A total of 294 patients (120 M/174 F, 41.0 ± 13.8 years old, 199 hypertensive and 95 normotensive) with a median estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of 75.5 mL/min/1.73 m2 were included. The hypertensive group (67.6%) was significantly older and exhibited significantly lower eGFR than the normotensive one. Increased left ventricular mass index (LVMI) was seen in 2.0%, mitral valve prolapse was observed in 3.4%, mitral valve regurgitation in 15.3%, tricuspid valve regurgitation in 16.0%, and aortic valve regurgitation in 4.8% of the whole sample. The present study suggested that the prevalence of mitral valve prolapse was much lower than previously reported, and increased LVMI was not seen in most adult ADPKD patients.

Introduction Cardiovascular disease leads to high morbidity and mortality in patients with kidney failure. Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) is a systemic disease with various cardiac abnormalities. Details on the cardiovascular profile of patients with ADPKD who are undergoing kidney transplantation (KT) and its progression are limited. Methods Echocardiographic data within 2 years before KT (1993-2020), and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) after transplantation were retrieved. The primary outcome is to assess cardiovascular abnormalities on echocardiography at the time of transplantation in ADPKD as compared with patients without ADPKD matched by sex (male, 59.4%) and age at transplantation (57.2 ± 8.8 years). Results Compared with diabetic nephropathy (DN, n = 271) and nondiabetic, patients without ADPKD (NDNA) (n = 271) at the time of KT, patients with ADPKD (n = 271) had lower rates of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) (39.4% vs. 66.4% vs. 48.6%), mitral (2.7% vs. 6.3% vs. 7.45) and tricuspid regurgitations (1.8% vs. 6.6% vs. 7.2%). Patients with ADPKD had less diastolic (25.3%) and systolic (5.6%) dysfunction at time of transplantation. Patients with ADPKD had the most favorable post-transplantation survival (median 18.7 years vs. 12.0 for diabetic nephropathy [DN] and 13.8 years for nondiabetic non-ADPKD [NDNA]; P < 0.01) and the most favorable MACE-free survival rate (hazard ratio = 0.51, P < 0.001). Patients with ADPKD had worsening of their valvular function and an increase in the sinus of Valsalva diameter post-transplantation (38.2 vs. 39.9 mm, P < 0.01). Conclusion ADPKD transplant recipients have the most favorable cardiac profile pretransplantation with better patient survival and MACE-free survival rates but worsening valvular function and increasing sinus of Valsalva diameter, as compared with patients with other kidney diseases.

Abstract
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most frequent cause of genetic renal disease and accounts for 6-10% of patients on kidney replacement therapy (KRT). Very few prospective, randomized trials or clinical studies address the diagnosis and management of this relatively frequent disorder. No clinical guidelines are available to date. This is a revised consensus statement from the previous 2014 version, presenting the recommendations of the Spanish Working Group on Inherited Kidney Diseases, which were agreed to following a literature search and discussions. Levels of evidence mostly are C and D according to the Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine (University of Oxford). The recommendations relate to, among other topics, the use of imaging and genetic diagnosis, management of hypertension, pain, cyst infections and bleeding, extra-renal involvement including polycystic liver disease and cranial aneurysms, management of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and KRT and management of children with ADPKD. Recommendations on specific ADPKD therapies are provided as well as the recommendation to assess rapid progression.

Abstract
TRPP2 (PC2, PKD2 or Polycytin-2), encoded by PKD2 gene, belongs to the nonselective cation channel TRP family. Recently, the three-dimensional structure of TRPP2 was constructed. TRPP2 mainly functions in three subcellular compartments: endoplasmic reticulum, plasma membrane and primary cilia. TRPP2 can act as a calcium-activated intracellular calcium release channel on the endoplasmic reticulum. TRPP2 also interacts with other Ca2+ release channels to regulate calcium release, like IP3R and RyR2. TRPP2 acts as an ion channel regulated by epidermal growth factor through activation of downstream factors in the plasma membrane. TRPP2 binding to TRPC1 in the plasma membrane or endoplasmic reticulum is associated with mechanosensitivity. In cilium, TRPP2 was found to combine with PKD1 and TRPV4 to form a complex related to mechanosensitivity. Because TRPP2 is involved in regulating intracellular ion concentration, TRPP2 mutations often lead to autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease, which may also be associated with cardiovascular disease. In this paper, we review the molecular structure of TRPP2, the subcellular localization of TRPP2, the related functions and mechanisms of TRPP2 at different sites, and the diseases related to TRPP2.

Abstract
Background Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most common hereditary cystic kidney disease and is well known to have extrarenal complications. Cardiovascular complications are of particular clinical relevance because of their morbidity and mortality; however, unclear is why they occur so frequently in patients with ADPKD and whether they are related to the genotypes. Methods We extracted and retrospectively analyzed clinical data on patients with ADPKD who underwent echocardiography and whose genotype was confirmed by genetic testing between April 2016 and December 2020. We used next-generation sequencing to compare cardiac function, structural data, and the presence of cardiac valvular disease in patients with 1 of 3 genotypes: PKD1, PKD2, and non-PKD1, 2. Results This retrospective study included 65 patients with ADPKD. Patients were divided into 3 groups: PKD1, n = 32; PKD2, n = 12; and non-PKD1, 2, n = 21. The prevalence of mitral regurgitation (MR) was significantly higher in the PKD1 group than in the PKD2 and non-PKD1, 2 group (46.9% vs. 8.3% vs. 19.0%, respectively; p = 0.02). In contrast, no significant difference was found for other cardiac valve complications. Conclusion This study found a significantly higher prevalence of MR in patients with the PKD1 genotype than in those with the PKD2 or non-PKD1, 2 genotypes. Physicians may need to perform echocardiography earlier and more frequently in patients with ADPKD and the PKD1 genotype and to control fluid volume and blood pressure more strictly in these patients to prevent future cardiac events.

Abstract
PURPOSE To demonstrate the safety and feasibility of synchronous unilateral nephrectomy and contralateral heminephrectomy in extremely severe autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), which corresponds to the Mayo imaging classification classes 1D and 1E. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed patients who underwent unilateral nephrectomy and contralateral heminephrectomy at the Seoul National University Hospital (Seoul, Korea) between May 1, 2016 and August 1, 2021. The preoperative kidney volume was calculated using the ellipsoid equation (length×width×thickness×π/6). The Mayo imaging classification was determined by height-adjusted total kidney volume and age. Using a midline vertical incision, heminephrectomy was performed first by horizontal transection, followed by contralateral nephrectomy. Hilar vessel clamping or resection-bed suturing was not required. RESULTS In all, nine patients with ADPKD of the highest severity (Mayo class 1D/1E) underwent unilateral heminephrectomy and contralateral nephrectomy for the most common cause of severe abdominal discomfort and malnutrition. All nine patients had end-stage renal disease with hypertension and anemia. The median preoperative total kidney volume was 10,905.8 mL (interquartile range [IQR], 8,170.4-16,227.6 mL). The median operation time was 140 minutes (IQR, 125-185 min) and the median estimated blood loss was 250 mL (IQR, 200-425 mL). Eight of the nine patients were discharged without ICU care or any complications. Delayed pseudoaneurysm occurred in one case and was successfully managed by embolization. All patients were symptom-free for a median follow-up period of 2 years. CONCLUSIONS Synchronous unilateral nephrectomy and contralateral heminephrectomy are safe and feasible treatment options for severe bilateral ADPKD.

Abstract
A high prevalence of genetic kidney disease in Tunisia has been detected, and their study provides very important clinical and genetic information. Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is one of the main causes of morbidity and mortality associated with the kidneys in Tunisia. We present here clinical and genetic characteristics of a cohort of Tunisian patients with ADPKD. Nineteen Tunisian patients with ADPKD, among 4 familial cases and 11 sporadic cases, and 50 Healthy individuals were included in this cohort. Genetic studies of PKD1/2 were carried on using Sanger sequencing and MLPA. In our study, the mean age at diagnosis was 47 ± 18 years. In addition, 84.21% of cases present a family history of ADPKD. Overall, 57.89% of the affected individuals had HTA and 26.31% patients had hematuria. 15.78 % of the patient has extra-renal cysts i.e. one patient with splenic cysts and two patients had liver cysts. 57.89 % of patients were diagnosed with various extra-renal clinical presentations i.e. myopia, hernia, deafness, intracranial aneurysm, respiratory distress, hyperthyroidism, urinary tract infection and lower back pains. The PKD1 genotype showed earlier onset of ESRD compared to PKD2 genotype (43 vs. 55 years old). Six mutations have been detected in PKD1 gene. Among them, three were novels e.g. c.688 T>G, p.C230G and c.690C>G, p.C230W among exon 5 and c.8522A>G, p.N2841S among exon 23. In addition, thirteen single nucleotides polymorphisms have been reported in PKD1 gene. Among them, eleven previously reported in heterozygous state and two novel single nucleotides polymorphisms in heterozygous and homozygous state and predicted to be probable polymorphisms by computational tools: c.496C>T, p.L166= among the exon 4, and c.10165G>C and p.E3389Gln among the exon 31. Only three single nucleotides polymorphisms previously reported in ADPKD database have been identified in PKD2 gene. The description and analysis of our cohort can help in rapid and reliable diagnosis for early management of patients in Tunisia. Indeed, predictive genetic testing can facilitate donor evaluation and increase living related kidney transplantation.

Abstract
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease is the most common hereditary renal disease affecting more than 13 million people worldwide. Renal function deteriorates as the cysts in both kidneys increase in number and size, which eventually results in end-stage kidney failure. Until recently, conservative management for chronic kidney disease such as blood pressure control, low sodium diet, adequate water intake, and weight control were known for the only treatment of polycystic kidney disease. However, the introduction of disease-modifying drug has led to the new paradigm shift in the management of polycystic kidney disease. Tolvaptan, the vasopressin V2 receptor antagonist, has been introduced to the patients with large kidneys since it can inhibit cyclic adenosine monophosphate, attenuates cyst growth, and delays renal failure. This article reviews the two important practical issues in the management of polycystic kidney disease: blood pressure and water balance. Firstly, the article will review the pathogenesis of high blood pressure in polycystic kidney disease and will demonstrate the current up-to-date management plan for blood pressure control. Secondly, this article will explain the mechanism of Tolvaptan on the treatment of polycystic kidney disease and its possible adverse effect on water and sodium balance.

Abstract
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), caused by mutations in the polycystin 1 (PKD1) or polycystin 2 genes, presents with progressive development of kidney cysts and eventual end-stage kidney disease with limited treatment options. Previous work has shown that metformin reduces cyst growth in rapid ADPKD mouse models via inhibition of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator-mediated fluid secretion, mammalian target of rapamycin, and cAMP pathways. The present study importantly tested the effectiveness of metformin as a therapy for ADPKD in a more clinically relevant Pkd1RC/RC mouse model, homozygous for the R3277C knockin point mutation in the Pkd1 gene. This mutation causes ADPKD in humans. Pkd1RC/RC male and female mice, which have a slow progression to end-stage kidney disease, received metformin (300 mg/kg/day in drinking water vs. water alone) from 3 to 9 or 12 mo of age. As previously reported, Pkd1RC/RC females had a more severe disease phenotype as compared with males. Metformin treatment reduced the ratio of total kidney weight-to-body weight relative to age-matched and sex-matched untreated controls at both 9 and 12 mo and reduced the cystic index in females at 9 mo. Metformin also increased glomerular filtration rate, lowered systolic blood pressure, improved anemia, and lowered blood urea nitrogen levels relative to controls in both sexes. Moreover, metformin reduced gene expression of key inflammatory markers and both gene and protein expression of kidney injury marker-1 and cyclin-dependent kinase-1 versus untreated controls. Altogether, these findings suggest several beneficial effects of metformin in this highly relevant slowly progressive ADPKD mouse model, which may help inform new ADPKD therapies in patients.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Metformin treatment improved ADPKD disease severity in a relevant, slowly progressive ADPKD mouse model that recapitulates a PKD-associated PKD1 mutation. Relative to controls, metformin reduced kidney weight/body weight, cystic index and BUN levels, while improving GFR, blood pressure and anemia. Metformin also reduced key inflammatory and injury markers, along with cell proliferation markers. These findings suggest several beneficial effects of metformin in this ADPKD mouse model, which may help inform new ADPKD therapies in patients.

Abstract
Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease is an inherited multisystemic disorder of the renal tubules with subsequent formation of multiple cysts and enlargement of the kidney, affecting various organs. Diagnosis is initially suspected in those with family history and/or individuals who develop hypertension early on (secondary hypertension) or certain symptoms. Renal function is initially preserved for years secondary to compensatory mechanisms. Associated conditions include: liver cysts, berry aneurysms, kidney stones, etc. The disease course is variable, but patients often progress to end-stage renal failure by age 60. There is no known cure, however, risk factor modification at early stages is critical. Renal transplant is the optimal treatment in ESRD.

Abstract
Background In autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), endothelial dysfunction (ED) is common and occurs much earlier than kidney function impairment. The impact of smoking on ED in ADPKD patients has not been previously studied. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential contribution of smoking habits to ED and subclinical atherosclerosis in these patients. Methods This case-control study included 54 ADPKD patients with preserved renal function and 45 healthy control subjects. ED was assessed using ischemia-induced forearm flow-mediated dilatation (FMD). Carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) was measured from 10 mm proximal to the right common carotid artery. Clinical demographic characteristics and laboratory data were recorded for the patients and control group. Regression analysis was used to determine independent associations of ED and CIMT. Results FMD was significantly lower in the ADPKD patients (19.5 ± 5.63 vs. 16.56 ± 6.41, p = .018). Compared with nonsmoker ADPKD patients, smoker patients had significantly lower FMD values (18.19 ± 6.52 vs. 13.79 ± 5.27, p = .013). In multiple regression analysis, age (β = –0.294, 95% CI: −0.392: −1.96, p = .001) for FMD and smoking (β = 1.328, 95% CI: 0.251, 2.404, p = .017) for CIMT were independent predictors. Conclusions Patients with ADPKD had more impaired endothelial function and subclinical atherosclerosis compared with control subjects. Smoking may increase the risk of subclinical atherosclerosis in ADPKD patients.

Abstract
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most commonly inherited kidney disease. Although children with ADPKD show normal renal function, cyst development is already occurring. In this study, we aimed to identify markers and associated molecular pathways of disease progression in children and young adults with ADPKD. Plasma samples were collected during a 3-year randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase III clinical trial that was designed to test the efficacy of pravastatin on slowing down ADPKD progression in pediatric patients. Samples from 58 patients were available at baseline and at the 3-year endpoint of the study, respectively. Furthermore, plasma samples from 98 healthy children were used as controls. Metabolomic analysis was performed using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry and differences in metabolic profiles over time and within study groups were evaluated. While pravastatin therapy led to a decrease in a percent change of total kidney volume (HtTKV) in ADPKD patients, it had minimal effects on metabolite changes. Oxidative stress, endothelial dysfunction, inflammation and immune response were the most affected signaling pathways that distinguished healthy from diseased children. Pathway analysis revealed that metabolites in the arginine metabolism (urea and nitric oxide cycles), asparagine and glutamine metabolism, in the methylation cycle and kynurenine pathway were significantly changed between healthy and children with ADPDK and continued to diverge from the control levels while the disease progressed. Detected metabolite changes were primarily governed by disease progression, and less by pravastatin treatment. Identified metabolic pathways, from arginine and asparagine to kynurenine metabolism could present therapeutic targets and should be further investigated for potential to treat ADPKD progression at an early stage.

Abstract
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is an inherited chronic kidney disorder (CKD) that is characterized by the development of numerous fluid-filled cysts in kidneys. It is caused either due to the mutations in the PKD1 or PKD2 gene that encodes polycystin-1 and polycystin-2, respectively. This condition progresses into end-stage renal disorder if the renal or extra-renal clinical manifestations remain untreated. Several clinical trials with a variety of drugs have failed, and the only Food and Drugs Administration (FDA) approved drug to treat ADPKD to date is tolvaptan that works by antagonizing the vasopressin-2 receptor (V2R). The pathology of ADPKD is complex and involves the malfunction of different signaling pathways like cAMP, Hedgehog, and MAPK/ERK pathway owing to the mutated product that is polycystin-1 or 2. A measured yet substantial number of preclinical studies have found pioglitazone to decrease the cystic burden and improve the renal function in ADPKD. The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma is found on the epithelial cells of renal collecting tubule and when it gets agonized by pioglitazone, confers efficacy in ADPKD treatment through multiple mechanisms. There is only one clinical trial (ongoing) wherein it is being assessed for its benefits and risk in patients with ADPKD, and is expected to get approval from the regulatory body owing to its promising therapeutic effects. This article would encompass the updated information on the epidemiology, pathophysiology of ADPKD, different mechanisms of action of pioglitazone in the treatment of ADPKD with preclinical and clinical shreds of evidence, and related safety updates.

Abstract
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) develops into end-stage kidney disease by 65 years of age in an estimated 45%-70% of patients. Recent trials revealed that tolvaptan inhibits disease progression both in early-stage or late-stage ADPKD ; however, stratified analysis showed a difference of favorable factors correlated with tolvaptan efficacy between early-stage and late-stage ADPKD. Thus, we examined the efficacy of tolvaptan in ADPKD with a wide range of estimated glomerular filtration rates (eGFR). We enrolled 24 patients with eGFR 35.3 (28.0-65.5) ml / min / 1.73m2 and evaluated treatment effect as ΔΔeGFR (ml / min / 1.73m2 / year) or ΔΔtotal kidney volume (TKV) (% / year) that was calculated as post-treatment annual change - pre-treatment annual change. Pre ΔeGFR was significantly low in eGFR responders, defined as ΔΔeGFR > 0 ml / min / 1.73m2 / year. In eGFR responders, pre ΔeGFR, post ΔeGFR, eGFR, TKV, and proteinuria were significantly correlated with ΔΔeGFR. In TKV responders defined as ΔΔTKV > 5 % / year, we identified hypertension history, proteinuria, TKV, and post ΔTKV as significantly correlated factors with ΔΔTKV. In conclusion, pre ΔeGFR may be a predictive factor of therapeutic efficacy on kidney function. Tolvaptan may have greater efficacy in early-stage ADPKD with rapid GFR decline or with well-controlled blood pressure. J. Med. Invest. 67 : 315-320, August, 2020.

Abstract
Autosomal-dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most prevalent inherited kidney disease, characterized by growth of bilateral renal cysts, hypertension, and multiple extrarenal complications that eventually can lead to renal failure. It is caused by mutations in PKD1 or PKD2 genes encoding the proteins polycystin-1 and polycystin-2, respectively. Over the past few years, studies investigating the role of primary cilia and polycystins, present not only on the surface of renal tubular cells but also on vascular endothelial cells, have advanced our understanding of the pathogenesis of ADPKD and have shown that mechanisms other than cyst formation also contribute to renal functional decline in this disease. Among them, increased oxidative stress, endothelial dysfunction, and hypoxia may play central roles because they occur early in the disease process and precede the onset of hypertension and renal functional decline. Endothelial dysfunction is linked to higher asymmetric dimethylarginine levels and reduced nitric oxide bioavailability, which would cause regional vasoconstriction and impaired renal blood flow. The resulting hypoxia would increase the levels of hypoxia-inducible-transcription factor 1α and other angiogenetic factors, which, in turn, may drive cyst growth. In this review, we summarize the existing evidence for roles of endothelial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and hypoxia in the pathogenesis of ADPKD.

Abstract
Background Patients with Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) often develop hypertension in childhood or early adulthood. Although this could result in left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), a major risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, prior studies of LVH in ADPKD have yielded conflicting results. We estimated the prevalence of LVH using consensus echocardiography criteria and examined the independent association of ADPKD severity with LV mass in a contemporary cohort of ADPKD patients. Methods Adults with ADPKD and eGFR> 15 ml/min/1.73m2 were enrolled in a single-center study. Left Ventricular Mass (LVM) was quantified using 2D echocardiography, and LVH was defined using gender-specific cut-points of LVM and LVM indexed to body surface area (LVMI) from consensus guidelines. Total Kidney Volume (TKV) was quantified using Magnetic Resonance Imaging, and GFR was estimated from serum creatinine using the CKD-Epi equation. Multiple linear regression was used to estimate the association of TKV and eGFR with LVM and LVMI, adjusting for potential confounders. Results Among 126 participants (78% with hypertension), median age was 46 years, median eGFR 63 ml/min/1.73 m2, and median [IQR] systolic blood pressure was 125 [116–133] mmHg. Prevalence of LVH was 21.4% as defined by LVMI and was not significantly different (p = 0.8) between those with and without HTN, and was similar (21.4%) after excluding those (N = 21) with known cardiac disease. Greater TKV and lower eGFR were directly correlated with greater LVMI (p = .016 and p < .001, respectively). In multiple linear regression models accounting for potential confounders including blood pressure, greater TKV was positively associated with LVM (\documentclass[12pt]{minimal}

Conclusions In a contemporary cohort of ADPKD patients with well-controlled blood pressure, the prevalence of LVH is high, and ADPKD severity as reflected by TKV is independently associated with greater LV mass. These results may suggest a relationship between ADPKD pathophysiology and increased LV mass.

Abstract
Purpose: Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is characterized by progressive development of kidney cysts and enlargement and dysfunction of the kidneys. The Consortium of Radiologic Imaging Studies of the Polycystic Kidney Disease (CRISP) cohort revealed that 89.1% had either a PKD1 or PKD2 mutation. Of the CRISP patients with a genetic cause detected, mutations in PKD1 accounted for 85%, while mutations in the PKD2 accounted for the remaining 15%. Here, we report exome sequencing of 16 Saudi patients diagnosed with ADPKD and 16 ethnically matched controls. Methods: Exome sequencing was performed using combinatorial probe-anchor synthesis and improved DNA Nanoballs technology on BGISEQ-500 sequencers (BGI, China) using the BGI Exome V4 (59 Mb) Kit. Identified variants were validated with Sanger sequencing. Results: With the exception of GC-rich exon 1, we obtained excellent coverage of PKD1 (mean read depth = 88) including both duplicated and non-duplicated regions. Of nine patients with typical ADPKD presentations (bilateral symmetrical kidney involvement, positive family history, concordant imaging, and kidney function), four had protein truncating PKD1 mutations, one had a PKD1 missense mutation, and one had a PKD2 mutation. These variants have not been previously observed in the Saudi population. In seven clinically diagnosed ADPKD cases but with atypical features, no PKD1 or PKD2 mutations were identified, but rare predicted pathogenic heterozygous variants were found in cystogenic candidate genes including PKHD1, PKD1L3, EGF, CFTR, and TSC2. Conclusions: Mutations in PKD1 and PKD2 are the most common cause of ADPKD in Saudi patients with typical ADPKD.

Abstract
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is an inherited multisystem disorder, characterized by renal and extra-renal fluid-filled cyst formation and increased kidney volume that eventually leads to end-stage renal disease. ADPKD is considered the fourth leading cause of end-stage renal disease in the United States and globally. Care of patients with ADPKD was, for a long time, limited to supportive lifestyle measures, due to the lack of therapeutic strategies targeting the main pathways involved in the pathophysiology of ADPKD. As the first FDA approved treatment of ADPKD, Vasopressin (V2) receptor blocking agent, tolvaptan, is an urgently awaited advance for ADPKD patients. In our review, we also shed some lights on what is beyond Tolvaptan as there are other medications in the pipeline and many medications have been or are currently being studied in clinical trials such as Tesevatinib, Metformin and Pravastatin, with the goal of slowing the rate of progression of ADPKD by reducing the increase in total kidney volume or maintaining eGFR. Here, we review updates in the perspectives and management of ADPKD.

Abstract
Hypertension is defined as the persistent elevation of blood pressure above normal limits. It can be classified according to whether the contributing factors are genetics and environmental (primary hypertension) or underlying medical conditions and medications (secondary hypertension). The goal of this review is to increase recognition of the various anatomical etiologies of hypertension. Clin. Anat. 32:678-681, 2019. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Biphasic Development of Focal Cerebral Hyperperfusion After Revascularization Surgery for Adult Moyamoya Disease Associated With Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease. J Stroke Cerebrovasc Dis 2018; 27:3256-3260. [PMID: 30093201 DOI: 10.1016/j.jstrokecerebrovasdis.2018.07.024] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/23/2018] [Revised: 07/02/2018] [Accepted: 07/07/2018] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Cerebral hyperperfusion (CHP) syndrome is a potential complication of superficial temporal artery-middle cerebral artery (STA-MCA) anastomosis for moyamoya disease (MMD), but its biphasic and delayed development is extremely rare. CASE REPORT A 47-year-old woman with autosomal dominant kidney disease (ADPKD) presented with transient ischemic attacks due to MMD, and underwent left STA-MCA anastomosis. N-isopropyl-p-[123I] iodoamphetamine single-photon emission computed tomography (123IMP-SPECT) 1 day after surgery revealed asymptomatic CHP at the site of anastomosis. Strict blood pressure control and minocycline hydrochloride relieved CHP at postoperative day 7. However, 2 days later, the patient complained of sensory aphasia, and 123IMP-SPECT demonstrated significant focal CHP at the site of anastomosis accompanying high-intensity signal on magnetic resonance (MR) imaging of fluid attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) in her left temporal lobe near the site of anastomosis. We continued strict blood pressure control and additionally administered free radical scavenger (Edaravone) and antiepileptic agents, which gradually improved sensory aphasia. MR imaging and 123IMP-SPECT also confirmed the amelioration of the FLAIR-high lesion and focal CHP in her left temporal lobe. Two months later, the patient underwent right STA-MCA anastomosis without complications. CONCLUSIONS Although the underlying mechanism is unknown, biphasic development of focal CHP after revascularization surgery in an MMD patient with ADPKD is unique. Due to the potential vulnerability of the systemic vessels in ADPKD, it is conceivable that intrinsic vascular wall fragility in MMD could be enhanced by ADPKD and have partly led to this rare complication.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Many strategies regarding timing of native nephrectomies exist for patients with symptomatic polycystic kidney disease (PCKD). METHODS This is a single-center, retrospective study of 594 adults with PCKD who had renal transplants from 1994 to 2014. Three groups were analyzed: renal transplant-only recipients (tx alone), recipients of simultaneous bilateral nephrectomies and transplant (simultaneous), and recipients with pretransplant bilateral nephrectomies (pre). The primary outcome was graft survival. Secondary outcomes included postoperative complications. RESULTS Five hundred sixty-five adults with PCKD received kidney transplants (303 tx alone, 161 simultaneous, 27 pre). Ten-year posttransplant graft survival was 68.5%, 63.6%, and 65.7% for tx alone, simultaneous, and precohorts (P = 0.86). No statistically significant differences were observed in rates of postoperative ileus, deep vein thrombosis, small bowel obstruction, urinary stricture, urine leak, hernia formation, and delayed graft function. More wound complications were seen in prepatients (25.9% vs 11.1% tx alone, 5.1% simultaneous; P = 0.03), whereas simultaneous patients had a lower incidence of lymphocele (1.3% vs 11.1% pre, 10.2% tx-alone; P = 0.002). Importantly, simultaneous patients had more renal vascular thromboses (4.4% vs 1.3% tx alone, 0% pre; P = 0.04). 16.3% of renal transplant alone patients required nephrectomy at 10 years follow-up. Twenty-nine patients were referred for transplant having had nephrectomies and were ultimately not transplanted. In 4 of these patients who had data available for analysis, the mean panel-reactive antibody significantly increased after nephrectomy was performed. CONCLUSIONS Simultaneous bilateral nephrectomy can be safely performed at the time of renal transplantation, however, carries a significantly increased risk of renal vascular thrombosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Hypertension is a major risk factor for all cardiovascular diseases, especially among African Americans. This study focuses on identifying specific blood pressure (BP) genes using 15 914 individuals of African ancestry from eight cohorts (Africa America Diabetes Mellitus, Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities Study, Coronary Artery Risk Development in young Adults, Genetics Network, Genetic Epidemiology Network of Arteriopathy, Howard University Family Study, Hypertension Genetic Epidemiology Network, and Loyola University Chicago Cohort) to further genetic findings in this population which has generally been underrepresented in BP studies. METHODS We genotyped and performed various single variant and gene-based exome-wide analyses on 15 914 individuals on the Illumina HumanExome Beadchip v1.0 or v1.1 to test association with SBP and DBP long-term average residuals that were adjusted for age, age-squared, sex, and BMI. RESULTS We identified rare variants affecting SBP and DBP in 10 genes: AFF1, GAPDHS, SLC28A3, COL6A1, CRYBA2, KRBA1, SEL1L3, YOD1, CCDC13, and QSOX1. Prior experimental evidence for six of these 10 candidate genes supports their involvement in cardiovascular mechanisms, corroborating their potential roles in BP regulation. CONCLUSION Although our results require replication or validation due to their low numbers of carriers, and an ethnicity-specific genotyping array may be more informative, this study, which has identified several candidate genes in this population most susceptible to hypertension, presents one of the largest African-ancestry BP studies to date and the largest including analysis of rare variants.

Abstract
In our studies of life-supporting α-1,3-galactocyltransferase knockout (GalT-KO) pig-to-baboon kidneys, we found that some recipients developed increased serum creatinine with growth of the grafts, without histological or immunological evidence of rejection. We hypothesized that the rapid growth of orthotopic pig grafts in smaller baboon recipients may have led to deterioration of organ function. To test this hypothesis for both kidneys and lungs, we assessed whether the growth of outbred (Yorkshire) organ transplants in miniature swine was regulated by intrinsic (graft) or extrinsic (host environment) factors. Yorkshire kidneys exhibited persistent growth in miniature swine, reaching 3.7 times their initial volume over 3 mo versus 1.2 times for miniature swine kidneys over the same time period. Similar rapid early growth of lung allografts was observed and, in this case, led to organ dysfunction. For xenograft kidneys, a review of our results suggests that there is a threshold for kidney graft volume of 25 cm3 /kg of recipient body weight at which cortical ischemia is induced in transplanted GalT-KO kidneys in baboons. These results suggest that intrinsic factors are responsible, at least in part, for growth of donor organs and that this property should be taken into consideration for growth-curve-mismatched transplants, especially for life-supporting organs transplanted into a limited recipient space.

Abstract
Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) is a systemic disease characterised by the formation of multiple renal cysts that adversely affect renal function. ADPKD shows significant progression with age when complications due to hypertension are most significant. The activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) occurs in progressive kidney disease leading to hypertension. The RAAS system may also contribute to ADPKD progression by stimulating signalling pathways in the renal cyst cells to promote growth and deregulate epithelial transport. This mini review focuses on the contribution of the RAAS system to renal cyst enlargement and the potential for antagonists of the RAAS system to suppress cyst enlargement as well as control ADPKD-associated hypertension.

Abstract
Alterations in myocardial wall texture stand out among ADPKD cardiovascular manifestations in hypertensive and normotensive patients. To elucidate their pathogenesis, we analyzed the cardiac phenotype in Pkd1(cond/cond)Nestin(cre) (CYG+) cystic mice exposed to increased blood pressure, at 5 to 6 and 20 to 24 weeks of age, and Pkd1(+/-) (HTG+) noncystic mice at 5-6 and 10-13 weeks. Echocardiographic analyses revealed decreased myocardial deformation and systolic function in CYG+ and HTG+ mice, as well as diastolic dysfunction in older CYG+ mice, compared to their Pkd1(cond/cond) and Pkd1(+/+) controls. Hearts from CYG+ and HTG+ mice presented reduced polycystin-1 expression, increased apoptosis, and mild fibrosis. Since galectin-3 has been associated with heart dysfunction, we studied it as a potential modifier of the ADPKD cardiac phenotype. Double-mutant Pkd1(cond/cond):Nestin(cre);Lgals3(-/-) (CYG-) and Pkd1(+/-);Lgals3(-/-) (HTG-) mice displayed improved cardiac deformability and systolic parameters compared to single-mutants, not differing from the controls. CYG- and HTG- showed decreased apoptosis and fibrosis. Analysis of a severe cystic model (Pkd1(V/V); VVG+) showed that Pkd1(V/V);Lgals3(-/-) (VVG-) mice have longer survival, decreased cardiac apoptosis and improved heart function compared to VVG+. CYG- and VVG- animals showed no difference in renal cystic burden compared to CYG+ and VVG+ mice. Thus, myocardial dysfunction occurs in different Pkd1-deficient models and suppression of galectin-3 expression rescues this phenotype.

Abstract
TRPP2 (polycystin-2, PC2 or PKD2), encoded by the PKD2 gene, is a non-selective cation channel with a large single channel conductance and high Ca(2+) permeability. In cell membrane, TRPP2, along with polycystin-1, TRPV4 and TRPC1, functions as a mechanotransduction channel. In the endoplasmic reticulum, TRPP2 modulates intracellular Ca(2+) release associated with IP3 receptors and the ryanodine receptors. Noteworthily, TRPP2 is widely expressed in vascular endothelial and smooth muscle cells of all major vascular beds, and contributes to the regulation of vessel function. The mutation of the PKD2 gene is a major cause of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), which is not only a common genetic disease of the kidney but also a systemic disorder associated with abnormalities in the vasculature; cardiovascular complications are the leading cause of mortality and morbidity in ADPKD patients. This review provides an overview of the current knowledge regarding the TRPP2 protein and its possible role in cardiovascular function and related diseases.

Abstract
Kidney diseases are complicated and can be fatal. Dialysis and transplantation are the only survival solutions to the patients suffering from kidney failures. Both hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis are risky, due to the possibility of infection and these are expensive and time consuming. The development of simple and reliable technique for the clearance of creatinine and urea from the body is an important part of biotechnology. We have synthesized an iron nanoparticle (INP) and studied its binding with creatinine and urea. The DLS, TEM, AFM, FT-IR and Powder-XRD studies demonstrate strong binding of creatinine and urea to the nanoparticles. This finding may be helpful if it is used in the dialysis technologies. The proposed method may substantially decrease dialysis time and improve its quality in terms of urea and creatinine clearances.

Abstract
PURPOSE We assessed hypertensive control after native nephrectomy and renal transplantation in patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease. MATERIALS AND METHODS Blood pressure control was studied retrospectively in 118 patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease who underwent renal transplantation between 2003 and 2013. Overall 54 patients underwent transplantation alone (group 1) and 64 underwent transplantation with concurrent ipsilateral nephrectomy (group 2). Of these 64 patients 32 underwent ipsilateral nephrectomy only (group 2a) and 32 underwent eventual delayed contralateral native nephrectomy (group 2b). The number of antihypertensive drugs and defined daily dose of each antihypertensive was recorded at transplantation and up to 36-month followup. RESULTS Comparing preoperative to postoperative medications at 12, 24 and 36-month followup, transplantation with concurrent ipsilateral nephrectomy had a greater decrease in quantity (-1.2 vs -0.5 medications, p=0.008; -1.1 vs -0.3, p=0.007 and -1.2 vs -0.4, p=0.03, respectively) and defined daily dose of antihypertensive drug (-3.3 vs -1.0, p=0.0008; -2.9 vs -1.0, p=0.006 and -2.7 vs -0.6, p=0.007, respectively) than transplantation alone at each point. Native nephrectomy continued to be a predictor of hypertensive requirements on multivariable analysis (p <0.0001). The mean decrease in number of medications in group 2b from after ipsilateral nephrectomy to 12 months after contralateral nephrectomy was -0.6 (p=0.0005) and the mean decrease in defined daily dose was -0.6 (p=0.009). CONCLUSIONS In patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease undergoing renal transplantation, concurrent ipsilateral native nephrectomy is associated with a significant decrease in the quantity and defined daily dose of antihypertensive drugs needed for hypertension control. Delayed contralateral native nephrectomy is associated with improved control of blood pressure to an even greater degree.

Abstract
In hereditary cystic disorders, renal injury begins with the formation of the first cyst. Renal injury may manifest as large kidneys, abdominal pain, hypertension and hematuria in children and young adults with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). In autosomal recessive PKD (ARPKD) and ADPKD, cysts form primarily in collecting ducts and expand progressively. Collecting duct cysts that block urine flow have the potential to block urine formation in large numbers of upstream nephrons. In an ARPKD rat congenitally lacking vasopressin, only a few cysts developed until exogenous arginine vasopressin (AVP) was administered. AVP elevates cyclic AMP in vulnerable tubule cells to stimulate mitogenesis and fluid secretion, thereby causing cysts to form and enlarge indefinitely. The administration of an AVP-V2 receptor inhibitor or the consumption of sufficient water to persistently lower plasma AVP levels will ameliorate disease progression. Renal volume measurements provide the most reliable way to forecast long-term outcome in individual children and adult patients with ADPKD. Many drugs that have demonstrated efficacy in small clinical trials, preclinical trials and cell-based studies are in the treatment pipeline. Counseling, regular exercise, limitation of dietary calories, salt, protein and fat, increased fluid intake throughout the day and treatment of hypertension are components of a rational treatment program that can be offered at an early age to those with, or at risk for developing PKD.

Drugs Context 2015; 4:212275.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a progressive genetic disorder characterized by the development of numerous kidney cysts that result in kidney failure. Little is known regarding the key patient characteristics and utilization of healthcare resources for ADPKD patients along the continuum of disease progression. This observational study was designed to describe the characteristics of ADPKD patients and compare them with those of patients with other chronic kidney diseases. METHODS This retrospective cohort study involved patients with a claim for ADPKD or PKD unspecified from 1/1/2000-2/28/2013 and ≥6 months of previous continuous enrollment (baseline) within a large database of administrative claims in the USA. A random sample of chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients served as comparators. For a subset of ADPKD patients who had only a diagnosis code of unspecified PKD, abstraction of medical records was undertaken to estimate the proportion of patients who had medical chart-confirmed ADPKD. In patients with linked electronic laboratory data, the estimated glomerular filtration rate was calculated via serum creatinine values to determine CKD stage at baseline and during follow-up. Proportions of patients transitioning to another stage and the mean age at transition were calculated. RESULTS ADPKD patients were, in general, younger and had fewer physician visits, but had more specific comorbidities at observation start compared with CKD patients. ADPKD patients had a longer time in the milder stages and longer duration before recorded transition to a more severe stage compared with CKD patients. Patients with ADPKD at risk of rapid progression had a shorter time-to-end-stage renal disease than patients with CKD and ADPKD patients not at risk, but stage duration was similar between ADPKD patients at risk and those not at risk. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that distribution of patients by age at transition to next stage may be useful for identification of ADPKD patients at risk of rapid progression. The results also suggest that medical claims with diagnosis codes for "unspecified PKD", in absence of a diagnosis code for autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease, may be a good proxy for ADPKD.

Abstract
Autosomal dominant polycystic disease (ADPKD) is one of the most common monogenic disorders, and globally is among the most common hereditary causes of end stage kidney disease. Until recently, the causes of this disease remained obscure. However, in the past decade there have been enormous advances in the understanding of the pathophysiology and genetics of this condition, and recent studies have suggested the possibility of specific treatment for slowing cyst growth. This review will focus on the new options for the control of ADPKD.
