[PMID: 38773961 DOI: 10.1080/14656566.2024.2357188] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/16/2024] [Accepted: 05/15/2024] [Indexed: 05/24/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Juxtaglomerular apparatus (JGA)-mediated homeostatic mechanism links to how sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) slow progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and may link to how tolvaptan slows renal function decline in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). AREA COVERED JGA-mediated homeostatic mechanism has been hypothesized based on investigations of tubuloglomerular feedback and renin-angiotensin system. We reviewed clinical trials of SGLT2is and tolvaptan to assess the relationship between this mechanism and these drugs. EXPERT OPINION When sodium load to macula densa (MD) increases, MD increases adenosine production, constricting afferent arteriole (Af-art) and protecting glomeruli. Concurrently, MD signaling suppresses renin secretion, increases urinary sodium excretion, and counterbalances reduced sodium filtration. However, when there is marked increase in sodium load per-nephron, as in advanced CKD, MD adenosine production increases, relaxing Af-art and maintaining sodium homeostasis at the expense of glomeruli. The beneficial effects of tolvaptan on renal function in ADPKD may also depend on the JGA-mediated homeostatic mechanisms since tolvaptan inhibits sodium reabsorption in the thick ascending limb.The JGA-mediated homeostatic mechanism regulates Af-arts, constricting to relaxing according to homeostatic needs. Understanding this mechanism may contribute to the development of pharmacotherapeutic compounds and better care for patients with CKD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) leads to progressive renal cyst formation and loss of kidney function in most patients. Vasopressin 2 receptor antagonists (V2RA) like tolvaptan are currently the only available renoprotective agents for rapidly progressive ADPKD. However, aquaretic side effects substantially limit their tolerability and therapeutic potential. In a preliminary clinical study, the addition of hydrochlorothiazide (HCT) to tolvaptan decreased 24-h urinary volume and appeared to increase renoprotective efficacy. The HYDRO-PROTECT study will investigate the long-term effect of co-treatment with HCT on tolvaptan efficacy (rate of kidney function decline) and tolerability (aquaresis and quality of life) in patients with ADPKD. METHODS The HYDRO-PROTECT study is an investigator-initiated, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized clinical trial. The study is powered to enroll 300 rapidly progressive patients with ADPKD aged ≥ 18 years, with an eGFR of > 25 mL/min/1.73 m2, and on stable treatment with the highest tolerated dose of tolvaptan in routine clinical care. Patients will be randomly assigned (1:1) to daily oral HCT 25 mg or matching placebo treatment for 156 weeks, in addition to standard care. OUTCOMES The primary study outcome is the rate of kidney function decline (expressed as eGFR slope, in mL/min/1.73 m2 per year) in HCT versus placebo-treated patients, calculated by linear mixed model analysis using all available creatinine values from week 12 until the end of treatment. Secondary outcomes include changes in quality-of-life questionnaire scores (TIPS, ADPKD-UIS, EQ-5D-5L, SF-12) and changes in 24-h urine volume. CONCLUSION The HYDRO-PROTECT study will demonstrate whether co-treatment with HCT can improve the renoprotective efficacy and tolerability of tolvaptan in patients with ADPKD.

Long-Term Effects of Tolvaptan in Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease: Predictors of Treatment Response and Safety over 6 Years of Continuous Therapy. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:2088.

Abstract
Tolvaptan, an oral vasopressin V2 receptor antagonist, reduces renal volume expansion and loss of renal function in patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). Data for predictive factors indicating patients more likely to benefit from long-term tolvaptan are lacking. Data were retrospectively collected from 55 patients on tolvaptan for 6 years. Changes in renal function, progression of renal dysfunction (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR], 1-year change in eGFR [ΔeGFR/year]), and renal volume (total kidney volume [TKV], percentage 1-year change in TKV [ΔTKV%/year]) were evaluated at 3-years pre-tolvaptan, at baseline, and at 6 years. In 76.4% of patients, ΔeGFR/year improved at 6 years. The average 6-year ΔeGFR/year (range) minus baseline ΔeGFR/year: 3.024 (-8.77-20.58 mL/min/1.73 m2). The increase in TKV was reduced for the first 3 years. A higher BMI was associated with less of an improvement in ΔeGFR (p = 0.027), and family history was associated with more of an improvement in ΔeGFR (p = 0.044). Hypernatremia was generally mild; 3 patients had moderate-to-severe hyponatremia due to prolonged, excessive water intake in response to water diuresis-a side effect of tolvaptan. Family history of ADPKD and baseline BMI were contributing factors for ΔeGFR/year improvement on tolvaptan. Hyponatremia should be monitored with long-term tolvaptan administration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The irreversible progression of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) is delayed by tolvaptan. Therefore, we aim to systematically estimate and evaluate the efficacy and safety of tolvaptan in the treatment of ADPKD. METHODS Two reviewers independently searched all published randomized controlled trials studies in PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science and Cochrane databases, extracted data, assessed bias risk and rated the quality of evidence. Data were analyzed by the RevMan software. RESULTS We identified 8 trials including 2135 patients. Both of the decline of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) [MD=1.89, 95% CI (0.74, 3.04), P=0.001] and total kidney volume (TKV) [MD=-3.32, 95% CI (-4.57, -2.07), P<0.001] were delayed in tolvaptan group compared with placebo group in ADPKD patients. The use of tolvaptan delayed TKV progression in the different-month subgroups [MD=-69.99, 95% CI (-91.05, -48.94), P<0.001]. Tolvaptan reduced renal pain [RR=0.66, 95% CI (0.54, 0.81), P<0.001] and hematuria events [RR=0.55, 95% CI (0.41, 0.74), P<0.001] in ADPKD patients. However, the prevalence of thirst [RR=2.75, 95% CI (2.34, 3.24), P<0.001] and nocturia events [RR=3.01, 95% CI (1.27, 7.11), P=0.01] were increased in tolvaptan group. There is no significant difference of hypertension events [RR=0.92, 95% CI (0.82, 1.03), P=0.13] in tolvaptan group compared placebo group. CONCLUSIONS This meta-analysis suggests that tolvaptan may improve clinical progression in patients with ADPKD without significantly increasing the risk of adverse reactions.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION With increased fluid intake and tolvaptan treatment, the growth rate of cysts can be theoretically decelerated in autosomal polycystic kidney disease. In this prospective study, it was planned to evaluate thirst sensation in these patients and the parameters affecting its intensity. METHODS Forty-one ADPKD patients on tolvaptan and 40 ADPKD patients not on tolvaptan as the control group were evaluated for thirst distress sensation and intensity. The feeling of thirst and the discomfort caused by excessive fluid intake was assessed with Thirst Distress Scale-HF 12 questions (60/12). Thirst intensity was evaluated with a 100 mm visual scale. RESULTS Of the whole group, 35.8% (29) were males, and 64.2% (52) were females. The mean age of the tolvaptan group was 39.17 ± 9.35 years and for the control group, it was 41.95 ± 12.29 years. There was a negative correlation between the thirst distress score of the patients and an increase in creatinine level after a year of tolvaptan treatment (r = - 0.335, p = 0.035). The patients not taking thiazide had higher thirst intensity scores (p = 0.004). There was no impact of tolvaptan dosage, total kidney volume, serum sodium, urinary osmolarity or eGFR on thirst distress and thirst intensity scores. DISCUSSION/CONCLUSION Only thiazide co-treatment had a positive impact on thirst distress and intensity when given tolvaptan. Thirst Distress Scale for ADPKD patients can be used to classify patients before and during tolvaptan treatment.

Abstract
The diluting and concentrating function of the kidney plays a crucial role in regulating the water homeostasis of the body. This function is regulated by the antidiuretic hormone, arginine vasopressin through the type 2 vasopressin receptor (V2R), allowing the body to adapt to periods of water load or water restriction. Loss-of-function mutations of the V2R cause X-linked nephrogenic diabetes insipidus (XNDI), which is characterized by polyuria, polydipsia, and hyposthenuria. Gain-of-function mutations of the V2R lead to nephrogenic syndrome of inappropriate antidiuresis disease (NSIAD), which results in hyponatremia. Various mechanisms may be responsible for the impaired receptor functions, and this review provides an overview of recent findings about the potential therapeutic interventions in the light of the current experimental data.

Abstract
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most common genetic kidney disorder and the fourth leading cause of end-stage kidney disease. ADPKD encompasses a wide range of morbidity in addition to chronic kidney disease and end-stage kidney disease, and its pathogenesis remains incompletely understood. Progress in the management of this condition includes the 2018 FDA approval of tolvaptan as the only mechanism-specific treatment available for individuals at risk of rapid progression. Assessing the risk of rapid progression is discussed at greater length in a separate article in this special issue. This section will address use and prescription of tolvaptan in more detail and address other therapies that may be considered in the treatment of patients with ADPKD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the performance of an internally developed and previously validated artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm for magnetic resonance (MR)-derived total kidney volume (TKV) in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) when implemented in clinical practice. PATIENTS AND METHODS The study included adult patients with ADPKD seen by a nephrologist at our institution between November 2019 and January 2021 and undergoing an MR imaging examination as part of standard clinical care. Thirty-three nephrologists ordered MR imaging, requesting AI-based TKV calculation for 170 cases in these 161 unique patients. We tracked implementation and performance of the algorithm over 1 year. A radiologist and a radiology technologist reviewed all cases (N=170) for quality and accuracy. Manual editing of algorithm output occurred at radiology or radiology technologist discretion. Performance was assessed by comparing AI-based and manually edited segmentations via measures of similarity and dissimilarity to ensure expected performance. We analyzed ADPKD severity class assignment of algorithm-derived vs manually edited TKV to assess impact. RESULTS Clinical implementation was successful. Artificial intelligence algorithm-based segmentation showed high levels of agreement and was noninferior to interobserver variability and other methods for determining TKV. Of manually edited cases (n=84), the AI-algorithm TKV output showed a small mean volume difference of -3.3%. Agreement for disease class between AI-based and manually edited segmentation was high (five cases differed). CONCLUSION Performance of an AI algorithm in real-life clinical practice can be preserved if there is careful development and validation and if the implementation environment closely matches the development conditions.

TRPV4 functional status in cystic cells regulates cystogenesis in autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease during variations in dietary potassium. Physiol Rep 2023; 11:e15641.

Abstract
Mechanosensitive TRPV4 channel plays a dominant role in maintaining [Ca2+ ]i homeostasis and flow-sensitive [Ca2+ ]i signaling in the renal tubule. Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) manifests as progressive cyst growth due to cAMP-dependent fluid secretion along with deficient mechanosensitivity and impaired TRPV4 activity. Here, we tested how regulation of renal TRPV4 function by dietary K+ intake modulates the rate of cystogenesis and mechanosensitive [Ca2+ ]i signaling in cystic cells of PCK453 rats, a homologous model of human autosomal recessive PKD (ARPKD). One month treatment with both high KCl (5% K+ ) and KB/C (5% K+ with bicarbonate/citrate) diets significantly increased TRPV4 levels when compared to control (0.9% K+ ). High KCl diet caused an increased TRPV4-dependent Ca2+ influx, and partial restoration of mechanosensitivity in freshly isolated monolayers of cystic cells. Unexpectedly, high KB/C diet induced an opposite effect by reducing TRPV4 activity and worsening [Ca2+ ]i homeostasis. Importantly, high KCl diet decreased cAMP, whereas high KB/C diet further increased cAMP levels in cystic cells (assessed as AQP2 distribution). At the systemic level, high KCl diet fed PCK453 rats had significantly lower kidney-to-bodyweight ratio and reduced cystic area. These beneficial effects were negated by a concomitant administration of an orally active TRPV4 antagonist, GSK2193874, resulting in greater kidney weight, accelerated cystogenesis, and augmented renal injury. High KB/C diet also exacerbated renal manifestations of ARPKD, consistent with deficient TRPV4 activity in cystic cells. Overall, we demonstrate that TRPV4 channel activity negatively regulates cAMP levels in cystic cells thus attenuating (high activity) or accelerating (low activity) ARPKD progression.

Abstract
Kidney cyst expansion in tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) or polycystic kidney disease (PKD) requires active secretion of chloride (Cl-) into the cyst lumen. In PKD, Cl- secretion is primarily mediated via the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) in principal cells. Kidney cystogenesis in TSC is predominantly composed of type A intercalated cells, which do not exhibit noticeable expression of CFTR. The identity of the Cl--secreting molecule(s) in TSC cyst epithelia remains speculative. RNA-sequencing analysis results were used to examine the expression of FOXi1, the chief regulator of acid base transporters in intercalated cells, along with localization of Cl- channel 5 (ClC5), in various models of TSC. Results from Tsc2+/- mice showed that the expansion of kidney cysts corresponded to the induction of Foxi1 and correlated with the appearance of ClC5 and H+-ATPase on the apical membrane of cyst epithelia. In various mouse models of TSC, Foxi1 was robustly induced in the kidney, and ClC5 and H+-ATPase were expressed on the apical membrane of cyst epithelia. Expression of ClC5 was also detected on the apical membrane of cyst epithelia in humans with TSC but was absent in humans with autosomal dominant PKD or in a mouse model of PKD. These results indicate that ClC5 is expressed on the apical membrane of cyst epithelia and is a likely candidate mediating Cl- secretion into the kidney cyst lumen in TSC.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this meta-analysis was to compare the efficacy and drug safety of tolvaptan with placebo for autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). METHODS The PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases were searched from inception to September 10, 2021. Eligible studies comparing tolvaptan and placebo in the treatment of patients with ADPKD were included. Data were analysed using Review Manager Version 5.3. RESULTS Thirteen studies involving 3575 patients were included in the meta-analysis. Compared with placebo, tolvaptan had a better effect on delaying eGFR decline (MD 1.27, 95% CI 1.24-1.29, P < 0.01) and TKV increase (MD - 3.01, 95% CI - 3.55 to - 2.47, P < 0.01) in ADPKD treatment. Additionally, tolvaptan reduced the incidence of complications such as renal pain (OR 0.71, 95% CI 0.58-0.87, P < 0.01), urinary tract infection (OR 0.69, 95% CI 0.54-0.89, P < 0.01), haematuria (OR 0.68, 95% CI 0.51-0.89, P < 0.01), and hypertension (OR 0.66, 95% CI 0.52-0.82, P < 0.01). However, tolvaptan was associated with a higher incidence rate of adverse events such as thirst (OR 8.48 95% CI 4.53-15.87, P < 0.01), polyuria (OR 4.71, 95% CI 2.17-10.24, P < 0.01), and hepatic injury (OR 4.56, 95% CI 2.51-8.29, P < 0.01). CONCLUSION Tolvaptan can delay eGFR decline and TKV increase and reduce complications such as renal pain, urinary tract infection, haematuria, and hypertension in the treatment of ADPKD. However, tolvaptan increases the adverse effects of thirst, polyuria and hepatic injury.

Abstract
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a debilitating renal neoplastic disorder with limited treatment options. It is characterized by the formation of large fluid-filled cysts that develop from kidney tubules through abnormal cell proliferation and cyst-filling fluid secretion driven by cAMP-dependent Cl- secretion. We tested the effectiveness of the indazole carboxylic acid H2-gamendazole (H2-GMZ), a derivative of lonidamine, to inhibit these processes using in vitro and in vivo models of ADPKD. H2-GMZ was effective in rapidly blocking forskolin-induced, Cl--mediated short-circuit currents in human ADPKD cells, and it significantly inhibited both cAMP- and epidermal growth factor-induced proliferation of ADPKD cells. Western blot analysis of H2-GMZ-treated ADPKD cells showed decreased phosphorylated ERK and decreased hyperphosphorylated retinoblastoma levels. H2-GMZ treatment also decreased ErbB2, Akt, and cyclin-dependent kinase 4, consistent with inhibition of heat shock protein 90, and it decreased levels of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator Cl- channel protein. H2-GMZ-treated ADPKD cultures contained a higher proportion of smaller cells with fewer and smaller lamellipodia and decreased cytoplasmic actin staining, and they were unable to accomplish wound closure even at low H2-GMZ concentrations, consistent with an alteration in the actin cytoskeleton and decreased cell motility. Experiments using mouse metanephric organ cultures showed that H2-GMZ inhibited cAMP-stimulated cyst growth and enlargement. In vivo, H2-GMZ was effective in slowing postnatal cyst formation and kidney enlargement in the Pkd1flox/flox: Pkhd1-Cre mouse model. Thus, H2-GMZ treatment decreases Cl- secretion, cell proliferation, cell motility, and cyst growth. These properties, along with its reported low toxicity, suggest that H2-GMZ might be an attractive candidate for treatment of ADPKD.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a renal neoplastic disorder characterized by the formation of large fluid-filled cysts that develop from kidney tubules through abnormal cell proliferation and cyst-filling fluid secretion driven by cAMP-dependent Cl- secretion. This study shows that the lonidamine derivative H2-GMZ inhibits Cl- secretion, cell proliferation, and cyst growth, suggesting that it might have therapeutic value for the treatment of ADPKD.

Abstract
BackgroundTolvaptan (TV) is the first vasopressin-receptor antagonist approved for the treatment of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). No publications report TV experience in real clinical practice during the first year of treatment.MethodsA prospective study of an initial cohort of 220 rapidly progressing patients treated with TV for 12 months. The tolerability of TV, the evolution of the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), analytical parameters, and blood pressure were analyzed.ResultsA total of 163 patients (78.2%) received TV for 1 year. The main causes of treatment withdrawal were the aquaretic effects (11%), eGFR deterioration (5%), and hepatic toxicity (2.3%). eGFR decreased significantly after 1 month of treatment without further changes. The decrease in eGFR in the first month was higher in patients with an initially higher eGFR. The eGFR drop during the first year of treatment with TV was lower than that reported by patients in the 2 years prior to TV treatment (–1.7 ± 7.6 vs. –4.4 ± 4.8 mL/min, p = 0.003). Serum sodium and uric acid concentrations increased, and morning urinary osmolality decreased in the first month, with no further changes. Blood pressure decreased significantly without changes in antihypertensive medication.ConclusionTV treatment is well tolerated by most patients. Liver toxicity is very rare and self-limited. TV reduces eGFR in the first month without showing further changes during the first year of treatment. Patients with a higher starting eGFR will suffer a greater initial drop, with a longer recovery. We suggest using the eGFR observed after a month of treatment as the reference for future comparisons and calculating the rate of eGFR decline in patients undergoing TV treatment.

FRONTIERS IN NEPHROLOGY 2022; 2:984165.

Abstract
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a cause of end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). The vasopressin V2-receptor antagonist tolvaptan has been shown within randomized clinical trials to slow down decline of kidney function in patients with ADPKD at risk of rapid progression. We performed a retrospective review of a Northeast England cohort of adult ADPKD patients who had been established on tolvaptan therapy to determine its efficacy in a real-world clinic setting. Other inclusion criteria involved a pre-treatment decline in greater than 2.5 ml/min/1.73m2/year based on readings for a 3 year period, and ability to tolerate and maintain tolvaptan treatment for at least 12 months. We calculated based on eGFR slopes, predicted time to reach ESKD with and without tolvaptan therapy. The cohort of patients included 21 from the Northeast of England. The mean rate of eGFR decline prior to treatment was -6.02 ml/min/1.73m2/year for the cohort. Following tolvaptan treatment, the average decline in eGFR was reduced to -2.47 ml/min/1.73m2/year, gaining a mean 8 years and 4 months delay to reach ESKD. The majority of patients (n=19) received and tolerated full dose tolvaptan (90 mg/30 mg). The real-life use of tolvaptan gave a dramatic improvement in eGFR slopes, much more than previously reported in clinical studies. These effects may be in part due to careful patient identification, selection and inclusion of patients who were able to tolerate tolvaptan therapy, excellent compliance with medication and a "tolvaptan clinic" effect where great personal care was given to these patients.

Abstract
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), with an estimated genetic prevalence between 1:400 and 1:1,000 individuals, is the third most common cause of end stage kidney disease after diabetes mellitus and hypertension. Over the last 3 decades there has been great progress in understanding its pathogenesis. This allows the stratification of therapeutic targets into four levels, gene mutation and polycystin disruption, proximal mechanisms directly caused by disruption of polycystin function, downstream regulatory and signaling pathways, and non-specific pathophysiologic processes shared by many other diseases. Dysfunction of the polycystins, encoded by the PKD genes, is closely associated with disruption of calcium and upregulation of cyclic AMP and protein kinase A (PKA) signaling, affecting most downstream regulatory, signaling, and pathophysiologic pathways altered in this disease. Interventions acting on G protein coupled receptors to inhibit of 3′,5′-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) production have been effective in preclinical trials and have led to the first approved treatment for ADPKD. However, completely blocking cAMP mediated PKA activation is not feasible and PKA activation independently from cAMP can also occur in ADPKD. Therefore, targeting the cAMP/PKA/CREB pathway beyond cAMP production makes sense. Redundancy of mechanisms, numerous positive and negative feedback loops, and possibly counteracting effects may limit the effectiveness of targeting downstream pathways. Nevertheless, interventions targeting important regulatory, signaling and pathophysiologic pathways downstream from cAMP/PKA activation may provide additive or synergistic value and build on a strategy that has already had success. The purpose of this manuscript is to review the role of cAMP and PKA signaling and their multiple downstream pathways as potential targets for emergent therapies for ADPKD.

Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is characterized by progressive cyst formation that ultimately leads to kidney failure in most patients. Approximately 10% of patients who receive kidney replacement therapy suffer from ADPKD. To date, a vasopressin V2 receptor antagonist (V2RA) is the only drug that has been proven to attenuate disease progression. However, aquaresis-related adverse events limit its widespread use. Data on the renoprotective effects of somatostatin analogues differ largely between studies and medications. This review discusses new drugs that are investigated in clinical trials to treat ADPKD, such as cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) modulators and micro RNA inhibitors, and drugs already marketed for other indications that are being investigated for off-label use in ADPKD, such as metformin. In addition, potential methods to improve the tolerability of V2RAs are discussed, as well as methods to select patients with (likely) rapid disease progression and issues regarding the translation of preclinical data into clinical practice. Since ADPKD is a complex disease with a high degree of interindividual heterogeneity, and the mechanisms involved in cyst growth also have important functions in various physiological processes, it may prove difficult to develop drugs that target cyst growth without causing major adverse events. This is especially important since long-standing treatment is necessary in this chronic disease. This review therefore also discusses approaches to targeted therapy to minimize systemic side effects. Hopefully, these developments will advance the treatment of ADPKD.

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
A major paradigm in nephrology states that the loss of filtration function over a long time is driven by a persistent hyperfiltration state of surviving nephrons. This hyperfiltration may derive from circulating immunological factors. However, some clue about the hemodynamic effects of these factors derives from the effects of so-called nephroprotective drugs. Thirty years after the introduction of Renin-Angiotensin-system inhibitors (RASi) into clinical practice, two new families of nephroprotective drugs have been identified: the sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) and the vasopressin receptor antagonists (VRA). Even though the molecular targets of the three-drug classes are very different, they share the reduction in the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) at the beginning of the therapy, which is usually considered an adverse effect. Therefore, we hypothesize that acute GFR decline is a prerequisite to obtaining nephroprotection with all these drugs. In this study, we reanalyze evidence that RASi, SGLT2i, and VRA reduce the eGFR at the onset of therapy. Afterward, we evaluate whether the extent of eGFR reduction correlates with their long-term efficacy. The results suggest that the extent of initial eGFR decline predicts the nephroprotective efficacy in the long run. Therefore, we propose that RASi, SGLT2i, and VRA delay kidney disease progression by controlling maladaptive glomerular hyperfiltration resulting from circulating immunological factors. Further studies are needed to verify their combined effects.

Abstract
Introduction The effects of long-term and uninterrupted tolvaptan treatment on autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) are unclear. Therefore, a more than 3-year continuous treatment study was performed. Methods From the Kyorin University cohort, 299 patients were surveyed and 179 patients were indicated for tolvaptan having a total kidney volume (TKV) ≥750 ml, TKV slope ≥5%/yr, and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≥15 ml/min per 1.73 m2. Among 179 patients, 118 patients consented to the study. Results Retrospective pretreatment and prospective on-treatment periods had a median of 1.8 and 4.0 years, respectively. During the 5 treatment-years, the log10(TKV) slope/yr decreased from the pretreatment period (P < 0.0001) and the estimated height-adjusted TKV growth rate α (eHTKV-α, %/yr) decreased from baseline (P < 0.0001). The decline in eGFR improved in female patients (P < 0.0001), but not in males (P = 0.6321). Furthermore, during the 5 treatment-years, eGFR remained significantly better in the group with a percent decrease in eHTKV-α from baseline to the first treatment-year ≥ the median (2.94%) than in the group with a decrease <2.94%. The free-water clearance was higher in males than in females irrespective of treatment. Conclusion The TKV growth rate decreased in 4 years with tolvaptan in both sexes. The insignificant effects of tolvaptan on the eGFR slope in males were likely due to androgen stimulation of cystogenesis and analytical difficulty of longitudinal changes in nonlinear trajectories of eGFR. The larger decrease in eHTKV-α in the first year was related to a better renal prognosis. The vasopressin-mediated water reabsorption was activated more in females than males irrespective of tolvaptan administration.

Abstract
Approval of the vasopressin V2 receptor antagonist tolvaptan—based on the landmark TEMPO 3:4 trial—marked a transformation in the management of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). This development has advanced patient care in ADPKD from general measures to prevent progression of chronic kidney disease to targeting disease-specific mechanisms. However, considering the long-term nature of this treatment, as well as potential side effects, evidence-based approaches to initiate treatment only in patients with rapidly progressing disease are crucial. In 2016, the position statement issued by the European Renal Association (ERA) was the first society-based recommendation on the use of tolvaptan and has served as a widely used decision-making tool for nephrologists. Since then, considerable practical experience regarding the use of tolvaptan in ADPKD has accumulated. More importantly, additional data from REPRISE, a second randomized clinical trial (RCT) examining the use of tolvaptan in later-stage disease, have added important evidence to the field, as have post hoc studies of these RCTs. To incorporate this new knowledge, we provide an updated algorithm to guide patient selection for treatment with tolvaptan and add practical advice for its use.

Abstract
Background Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most common inherited kidney disorder, accounting for approximately 5% of all ESRD cases worldwide. As a vasopressin receptor 2 antagonist, tolvaptan is the FDA-approved therapeutic agent for ADPKD, which is only made available to a limited number of adult patients; however, its efficacy in pediatric patients has not been reported widely. Summary Tolvaptan was shown to delay ADPKD progression in the Tolvaptan Efficacy and Safety in Management of Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease and Its Outcomes (TEMPO) 3:4 study, Replicating Evidence of Preserved Renal Function: an Investigation of Tolvaptan Safety and Efficacy in ADPKD (REPRISE) trial, and other clinical studies. In addition to its effects on aquaretic adverse events and alanine aminotransferase elevation, the effect of tolvaptan on ADPKD is clear, sustained, and cumulative. While ADPKD is a progressive disease, the early intervention has been shown to be important and beneficial in hypotheses as well as in trials. The use of tolvaptan in pediatric ADPKD involves the following challenges: patient assessment, quality of life assessment, cost-effectiveness, safety, and tolerability. The ongoing, phase 3b, 2-part study (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT02964273) on the evaluation of tolvaptan in pediatric ADPKD (patients aged 12-17 years) may help obtain some insights. Key Messages This review focuses on the rationality of tolvaptan use in pediatric patients with ADPKD, the associated challenges, and the suggested therapeutic approaches.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Mayo clinic classification (MCC) has been proposed in patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) to identify who may experience a rapid decline of renal function. Our aim was to validate this predictive model in a population from southern Spain. METHODS ADPKD patients with measurements of height-adjusted total kidney volume (HtTKV) and baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) >30 mL/min/1.73 m2 were selected. Last eGFR was estimated with Mayo Clinic (MC) equation and bias and accuracy were studied. We also analyzed predictive capacity of MCC classes using survival analysis and Cox regression models. RESULTS We included 134 patients with a mean follow-up of 82 months. While baseline eGFR was not different between classes, last eGFR decreased significantly with them. eGFR variation rate was different according to the MCC class with a more rapid decline in 1C, 1D, and 1E classes. Final eGFR predicted was not significantly different from the real one, with an absolute bias of 0.6 ± 17.0 mL/min/1.73 m2. P10 accuracy was low ranging from 37.5 to 59.5% in classes 1C, 1D, and 1E. Using MC equation, the rate of eGFR decline was underestimated in 1C, 1D, and 1E classes. Cox regression analysis showed that MCC class is a predictor of renal survival after adjusting with baseline eGFR, age, sex, and HtTKV, with 1D and 1E classes having the worst prognosis. CONCLUSION MCC classification is able to identify patients who will undergo a more rapid decline of renal function in a Spanish population. Prediction of future eGFR with MC equation is acceptable as a group, although it shows a loss of accuracy considering individual values. The rate of eGFR decline calculated using MC equation can underestimate the real rate presented by patients of 1C, 1D, and 1E classes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tolvaptan is the first effective drug treatment for autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) patients, but few long-term observations of the effects of tolvaptan have been reported. METHODS In this single center, retrospective cohort study, we investigated nine patients who participated in a phase 3 trial of tolvaptan for ADPKD patients at our hospital between 2008 and 2014. Six of the patients discontinued tolvaptan at the end of the clinical trial and were defined as the discontinuation group, and three continued to take it; these were defined as the continuation group. The observation period was 3 years before and after the end of the tolvaptan trial, and we compared the following data in each group: serum creatinine, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), total kidney volume, serum sodium concentration, and urine specific gravity. RESULTS eGFR was significantly improved after the end of the trial in the continuation group (P = 0.0446), but there was no significant change in the regression line before and after the end of the trial in the discontinuation group. The increases in mean total kidney volume rates over the 3 years before and after the trial were 0.01 %/year vs. 0.067 %/year in the discontinuation group (P = 0.0247). On the other hand, serum sodium concentration and urine specific gravity showed no change during the observation period. CONCLUSION This study suggested that long-term administration of tolvaptan may improve renal function and inhibit total kidney volume growth.

Abstract
PURPOSE Tolvaptan is the only approved drug for the treatment of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) and causes significant polyuria with secondary polydipsia. Up to now, there is no study that examines tolvaptan adherence and satisfaction with information received about tolvaptan in ADPKD patients 10 years after starting tolvaptan therapy. PATIENTS AND METHODS This pilot study includes 12 ADPKD patients that were formerly enrolled in the tolvaptan registration trials and have continued to use tolvaptan thereafter. Data were collected once via questionnaires on patients' self-reported adherence (MARS-D: Medication Adherence Report Scale - German version) and satisfaction with the information received about tolvaptan (SIMS-D: Satisfaction with Information about Medicines Scale - German version) at the time of the present study. In addition, serum creatinine levels and clinical data were evaluated. RESULTS The MARS-D demonstrated strong adherence to tolvaptan (range of possible score: 5-25; median: 23.5; range of individual results: 5). The SIMS-D showed a high level of satisfaction with the information received about the action and usage of tolvaptan (SIMS-D AU subscale; range of possible score: 0-9; median: 9, range of individual results: 1), but also revealed dissatisfaction regarding the information received about potential problems of tolvaptan in 42% of the participants (SIMS-D PP subscale; range of possible score: 0-8; median: 8, range of individual results: 6). During treatment with tolvaptan, the eGFR decreased from 78.8 ± 15.9 mL/min/1.73 m2 to 48.3 ± 19.4 mL/min/1.73 m2 (P < 0.0001). CONCLUSION Although patients reported strong adherence to tolvaptan, there was still dissatisfaction with the information received about potential problems with tolvaptan. Therefore, our data suggest conduction of at least one patient survey on adherence and satisfaction with the information received about tolvaptan during any tolvaptan treatment to improve patient education regarding the use of tolvaptan in slowing down of ADPKD.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Patients with Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) reach kidney failure at a median age of 58 years. There has been a strong interest in medical interventions to improve prognosis. With increasing understanding of the underlying pathophysiology, there is also a rationale for non-pharmaceutical interventions. However, these have received little attention. This review, therefore, focuses on dietary interventions in ADPKD. RECENT FINDINGS Recent studies regarding salt, protein and water intake, caloric restriction, BMI, caffeine and alcohol are discussed in this review. In general, these studies suggest that advices do not need to be different from those in chronic kidney disease (CKD). On the basis of research in the general population and CKD, these advices will likely decrease cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. With respect to delaying ADPKD progression, evidence for salt restriction is growing. For increasing water intake and targeting glucose metabolism by intermittent fasting, preclinical studies are promising. Long-term randomized human intervention studies are, however, lacking. SUMMARY In ADPKD, advices regarding dietary interventions can, in general, be the same as in CKD to decrease cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Whether these interventions also delay disease progression needs further study.

Bellos I. Safety Profile of Tolvaptan in the Treatment of Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease. Ther Clin Risk Manag 2021; 17:649-656. [PMID: 34234441 PMCID: PMC8254589 DOI: 10.2147/tcrm.s286952] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/02/2021] [Accepted: 06/19/2021] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease constitutes the most prevalent hereditary kidney disease, associated with high rates of morbidity leading eventually to end-stage renal disease. Tolvaptan is a selective vasopressin antagonist and has emerged as a promising therapeutic option for patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease. The present review summarized current evidence regarding the safety profile of tolvaptan in patients with the disease. Consistent with its pharmacological action, aquaretic adverse events represent the most common side effects of tolvaptan, consisting of polyuria, pollakiuria and polydipsia. Gradual dose titration based on urinary osmolality, as well as dietary interventions aiming to reduce solute excretion, have been proposed as potential strategies to mitigate polyuria. In addition, tolvaptan administration may be complicated by liver injury, characterized by alanine aminotransferase and bilirubin elevations. Hepatotoxicity has been suggested to be triggered by impaired biliary clearance, activation of innate immunity and increased oxidative stress. Frequent monitoring of liver function tests has been shown to be effective in preventing Hy’s Law and liver failure cases. Uric acid elevation due to reduced renal excretion may lead to hyperuricemia and gout, although no drug discontinuations have been linked to these events. Future studies should confirm the safety profile of tolvaptan in large-scale real-world studies, clarify the pathogenetic pathways leading to hepatotoxicity and define its role in special populations, especially pediatric patients.

Kidney intercalated cells and the transcription factor FOXi1 drive cystogenesis in tuberous sclerosis complex. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 2021; 118:2020190118.

Abstract
Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is caused by mutations in TSC1 or TSC2 gene and affects multiple organs, including the kidney, where it presents with angiomyolipomata and cysts that can result in kidney failure. The factors promoting cyst formation and tumor growth in TSC are incompletely understood. Current studies demonstrate that kidney cyst epithelia in TSC mouse models and in humans with TSC are composed of hyperproliferating intercalated cells, along with activation of H+-ATPase and carbonic anhydrase 2. Interfering with intercalated cell proliferation completely inhibited and inactivating carbonic anhydrase 2 significantly protected against cyst formation in TSC. Targeting the acid base and/or electrolyte transporters of intercalated cells may provide a therapeutic approach for the treatment of kidney cysts in TSC. Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is caused by mutations in either TSC1 or TSC2 genes and affects multiple organs, including kidney, lung, and brain. In the kidney, TSC presents with the enlargement of benign tumors (angiomyolipomata) and cysts, which eventually leads to kidney failure. The factors promoting cyst formation and tumor growth in TSC are incompletely understood. Here, we report that mice with principal cell-specific inactivation of Tsc1 develop numerous cortical cysts, which are overwhelmingly composed of hyperproliferating A-intercalated (A-IC) cells. RNA sequencing and confirmatory expression studies demonstrated robust expression of Forkhead Transcription Factor 1 (Foxi1) and its downstream targets, apical H+-ATPase and cytoplasmic carbonic anhydrase 2 (CAII), in cyst epithelia in Tsc1 knockout (KO) mice but not in Pkd1 mutant mice. In addition, the electrogenic 2Cl−/H+ exchanger (CLC-5) is significantly up-regulated and shows remarkable colocalization with H+-ATPase on the apical membrane of cyst epithelia in Tsc1 KO mice. Deletion of Foxi1, which is vital to intercalated cells viability and H+-ATPase expression, completely abrogated the cyst burden in Tsc1 KO mice, as indicated by MRI images and histological analysis in kidneys of Foxi1/Tsc1 double-knockout (dKO) mice. Deletion of CAII, which is critical to H+-ATPase activation, caused significant reduction in cyst burden and increased life expectancy in CAII/Tsc1 dKO mice vs. Tsc1 KO mice. We propose that intercalated cells and their acid/base/electrolyte transport machinery (H+-ATPase/CAII/CLC-5) are critical to cystogenesis, and their inhibition or inactivation is associated with significant protection against cyst generation and/or enlargement in TSC.

Abstract
Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD) is a rare disorder and one of the most severe forms of polycystic kidney disease, leading to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in childhood. PKHD1 is the gene that is responsible for the vast majority of ARPKD. However, some cases have been related to a new gene that was recently identified (DZIP1L gene), as well as several ciliary genes that can mimic a ARPKD-like phenotypic spectrum. In addition, a number of molecular pathways involved in the ARPKD pathogenesis and progression were elucidated using cellular and animal models. However, the function of the ARPKD proteins and the molecular mechanism of the disease currently remain incompletely understood. Here, we review the clinics, treatment, genetics, and molecular basis of ARPKD, highlighting the most recent findings in the field.

Abstract
Background: Protein-losing enteropathy (PLE) is a severe complication of the univentricular Fontan circulation and associated with disturbances in salt and water homeostasis. Fontan patients with PLE have a poor prognosis, with increased morbidity and mortality. Due to limited therapeutic strategies, patients are often treated only symptomatically. Methods: We report our first experience of Tolvaptan (TLV) treatment in a Fontan patient with PLE, severe volume retention and hyponatraemia, refractory to conventional diuretic therapy. In addition to clinical parameters, we monitored drug effects including tissue sodium and volume status via serial 23Na-magnetic resonance imaging (23Na-MRI) and bioimpedance spectroscopy compared with age-matched controls. Results: 23Na-MRI identified elevated tissue sodium, which decreased under TLV treatment, as well as volume status, while serum sodium increased and the patient’s symptoms improved. During long-term treatment, we were able to differentiate between sodium and volume status in our patient, suggesting that TLV uncoupled body sodium from water. Conclusion: TLV in addition to loop diuretics improved clinical symptoms of PLE and lowered tissue sodium overload. Long-term effects should be further evaluated in Fontan patients.

Abstract
The primary cilium projects from the surface of most vertebrate cells, where it senses extracellular signals to regulate diverse cellular processes during tissue development and homeostasis. Dysfunction of primary cilia underlies the pathogenesis of severe diseases, commonly referred to as ciliopathies. Primary cilia contain a unique protein repertoire that is distinct from the cell body and the plasma membrane, enabling the spatially controlled transduction of extracellular cues. G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) are key in sensing environmental stimuli that are transmitted via second messenger signaling into a cellular response. Here, we will give an overview of the role of GPCR signaling in primary cilia, and how ciliary GPCR signaling can be targeted by pharmacology, chemogenetics, and optogenetics.

Abstract
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most common inherited cause of kidney failure, accounting for 5%-10% of cases. Predicting which patients with ADPKD will progress rapidly to kidney failure is critical to assess the risk-benefit ratio of any intervention and to consider early initiation of long-term kidney protective measures that will maximize the cumulative benefit of slowing disease progression. Surrogate prognostic biomarkers are required to predict future decline in kidney function. Clinical, genetic, environmental, epigenetic, and radiologic factors have been studied as predictors of progression to kidney failure in ADPKD. A complex interaction of these prognostic factors determines the number of kidney cysts and their growth rates, which affect total kidney volume (TKV). Age-adjusted TKV, represented by the Mayo imaging classification, estimates each patient's unique rate of kidney growth and provides the most individualized approach available clinically so far. Tolvaptan has been approved to slow disease progression in patients at risk of rapidly progressive disease. Several other disease-modifying treatments are being studied in clinical trials. Selection criteria for patients at risk of rapid progression vary widely among countries and are based on a combination of age, baseline glomerular filtration rate (GFR), GFR slope, baseline TKV, and TKV rate of growth. This review details the approach in assessing the risk of disease progression in ADPKD and identifying patients who would benefit from long-term therapy with disease-modifying agents.

Abstract
Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is characterized by the proliferation of fluid-filled kidney cysts that enlarge over time, causing damage to the surrounding kidney and ultimately resulting in kidney failure. Both increased cell proliferation and fluid secretion are stimulated by increased cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) in PKD kidneys, so many treatments for the disease target cAMP lowering. Prostaglandins (PG) levels are elevated in multiple animal models of PKD and mediate many of their effects by elevating cAMP levels. Inhibiting the production of PG with cyclooxygenase 2 (COX2) inhibitors reduces PG levels and reduces disease progression. However, COX inhibitors also block beneficial PG and can cause nephrotoxicity. In an orthologous model of the main form of PKD, PGD2 and PGI2 were the two PG highest in kidneys and most affected by a COX2 inhibitor. Future studies are needed to determine whether specific blockage of PGD2 and/or PGI2 activity would lead to more targeted and effective treatments with fewer undesirable side-effects.

Abstract
BACKGROUNDS The clinical features of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) differ among patients even if they have the same gene mutation in PKD1 or PKD2. This suggests that there is diversity in the expression of other modifier genes or in the underlying molecular mechanisms of ADPKD, but these are not well understood. METHODS We primarily cultured solute carrier family 12 member 3 (SLC12A3)-positive urine-derived distal tubular epithelial cells from 6 ADPKD patients and 4 healthy volunteers and established immortalized cell lines. The diversity in receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) phosphorylation by phospho-RTK array in immortalized tubular epithelial cells was analyzed. RESULTS We noted diversity in the activation of several molecules, including Met, a receptor of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF). Administration of golvatinib, a selective Met inhibitor, or transfection of small interfering RNA for Met suppressed cell proliferation and downstream signaling only in the cell lines in which hyperphosphorylation of Met was observed. In three-dimensional culture of Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells as a cyst formation model of ADPKD, HGF activated Met, resulting in an increased total cyst number and total cyst volume. Administration of golvatinib inhibited these phenotypes in MDCK cells. CONCLUSION Analysis of urine-derived tubular epithelial cells demonstrated diverse RTK phosphorylation in ADPKD, and Met phosphorylation was noted in some patients. Considering the difference in the effects of golvatinib on immortalized tubular epithelial cells among patients, this analysis may aid in selecting suitable drugs for individual ADPKD patients.

Abstract
Systems-based, agnostic approaches focusing on transcriptomics data have been employed to understand the pathogenesis of polycystic kidney diseases (PKD). While multiple signaling pathways, including Wnt, mTOR and G-protein-coupled receptors, have been implicated in late stages of disease, there were few insights into the transcriptional cascade immediately downstream of Pkd1 inactivation. One of the consistent findings has been transcriptional evidence of dysregulated metabolic and cytoskeleton remodeling pathways. Recent technical developments, including bulk and single-cell RNA sequencing technologies and spatial transcriptomics, offer new angles to investigate PKD. In this article, we review what has been learned based on transcriptional approaches and consider future opportunities.

Abstract
Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is one of the most common life-threatening monogenetic diseases characterized by progressive enlargement of fluid-filled renal cysts. Our previous study has shown that Ganoderma triterpenes (GT) retards PKD renal cyst development. In the present study we identified the effective ingredient of GT in suppression of kidney cyst development. Using an in vitro MDCK cystogenesis model, we identified ganoderic acid A (GA-A) as the most promising candidate among the 12 ganoderic acid (GA) monomers. We further showed that GA-A (6.25−100 μM) significantly inhibited cyst growth in MDCK cyst model and embryonic kidney cyst model in vitro, and the inhibitory effect was reversible. In kidney-specific Pkd1 knockout (kPKD) mice displaying severe cystic kidney disease, administration of GA-A (50 mg· kg−1 ·d−1, sc) significantly attenuated renal cyst development. In both MDCK cells and kidney of kPKD mice, we revealed that GA-A dose-dependently downregulated the Ras/MAPK signaling pathway. The expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) was also suppressed, suggesting a possible effect of GA-A on cell proliferation. These experimental data suggest that GA-A may be the main ingredient of GT as a potential therapeutic reagent for treating ADPKD.

Abstract
Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) is a systemic disorder associated with polycystic liver disease (PLD) and other extrarenal manifestations, the most common monogenic cause of end-stage kidney disease, and a major burden for public health. Many studies have shown that alterations in G-protein and cAMP signaling play a central role in its pathogenesis. As for many other diseases (35% of all approved drugs target G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) or proteins functioning upstream or downstream from GPCRs), treatments targeting GPCR have shown effectiveness in slowing the rate of progression of ADPKD. Tolvaptan, a vasopressin V2 receptor antagonist is the first drug approved by regulatory agencies to treat rapidly progressive ADPKD. Long-acting somatostatin analogs have also been effective in slowing the rates of growth of polycystic kidneys and liver. Although no treatment has so far been able to prevent the development or stop the progression of the disease, these encouraging advances point to G-protein and cAMP signaling as a promising avenue of investigation that may lead to more effective and safe treatments. This will require a better understanding of the relevant GPCRs, G-proteins, cAMP effectors, and of the enzymes and A-kinase anchoring proteins controlling the compartmentalization of cAMP signaling. The purpose of this review is to provide an overview of general GPCR signaling; the function of polycystin-1 (PC1) as a putative atypical adhesion GPCR (aGPCR); the roles of PC1, polycystin-2 (PC2) and the PC1-PC2 complex in the regulation of calcium and cAMP signaling; the cross-talk of calcium and cAMP signaling in PKD; and GPCRs, adenylyl cyclases, cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases, and protein kinase A as therapeutic targets in ADPKD.

Abstract
Tolvaptan, a vasopressin V<sub>2</sub> receptor antagonist, was initially approved in Japan for treatment of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). Recently, a retrospective study showed that the effect of tolvaptan on kidney function could be sustained for a long period. However, the long-term efficacy and safety of high-dose tolvaptan (120 mg/day) in individual cases remain unknown. We report here 2 Japanese ADPKD patients (males, 36 and 29 years old) treated with tolvaptan (120 mg/day) for 9 years, during which time determinations of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and total kidney volume (TKV) were performed. In these 2 patients, eGFR prior to therapy was 57.3 and 76.3 mL/min/1.73 m<sup>2</sup>, respectively, and 30.2 and 43.5 mL/min/1.73 m<sup>2</sup>, respectively, after 9 years of tolvaptan treatment, for a relatively constant annual decline of −3.01 and −3.64 mL/min/1.73 m<sup>2</sup>, respectively. As compared to the predicted (calculated) eGFR without tolvaptan treatment, eGFR actually measured was higher by 15.3 and 12.6 mL/min/1.73 m<sup>2</sup>, respectively, after the 9-year therapy period. In addition, the rate of TKV increase was gradual, 2.4 and 4.7%, respectively, per year during the initial 3-year period, to 6.5 and 12.5%, respectively, per year in the following 6-year period. During the 9 years of treatment, neither patient showed tolvaptan-related adverse events. Our findings suggest that long-term administration of tolvaptan at a high dose is both safe and effective to preserve kidney function, though a gradual increase in TKV was seen in both of the present cases, particularly during the later phase.

Abstract
Autosomal‐dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most common inherited kidney disease, leading to kidney failure in most patients. In approximately 85% of cases, the disease is caused by mutations in PKD1. How dysregulation of PKD1 leads to cyst formation on a molecular level is unknown. Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are a powerful tool for in vitro modeling of genetic disorders. Here, we established ADPKD patient‐specific iPSCs to study the function of PKD1 in kidney development and cyst formation in vitro. Somatic mutations are proposed to be the initiating event of cyst formation, and therefore, iPSCs were derived from cystic renal epithelial cells rather than fibroblasts. Mutation analysis of the ADPKD iPSCs revealed germline mutations in PKD1 but no additional somatic mutations in PKD1/PKD2. Although several somatic mutations in other genes implicated in ADPKD were identified in cystic renal epithelial cells, only few of these mutations were present in iPSCs, indicating a heterogeneous mutational landscape, and possibly in vitro cell selection before and during the reprogramming process. Whole‐genome DNA methylation analysis indicated that iPSCs derived from renal epithelial cells maintain a kidney‐specific DNA methylation memory. In addition, comparison of PKD1+/− and control iPSCs revealed differences in DNA methylation associated with the disease history. In conclusion, we generated and characterized iPSCs derived from cystic and healthy control renal epithelial cells, which can be used for in vitro modeling of kidney development in general and cystogenesis in particular.

Abstract
Tubular ATP release is regulated by mechanosensation of fluid shear stress (FSS). Polycystin-1/polycystin-2 (PC1/PC2) functions as a mechanosensory complex in the kidney. Extracellular ATP is implicated in polycystic kidney disease (PKD), where PC1/PC2 is dysfunctional. This study aims to provide new insights into the ATP signaling under physiological conditions and PKD. Microfluidics, pharmacologic inhibition, and loss-of-function approaches were combined to assess the ATP release in mouse distal convoluted tubule 15 (mDCT15) cells. Kidney-specific Pkd1 knockout mice (iKsp-Pkd1-/- ) and zebrafish pkd2 morphants (pkd2-MO) were as models for PKD. FSS-exposed mDCT15 cells displayed increased ATP release. Pannexin-1 inhibition and knockout decreased FSS-modulated ATP release. In iKsp-Pkd1-/- mice, elevated renal pannexin-1 mRNA expression and urinary ATP were observed. In Pkd1-/- mDCT15 cells, elevated ATP release was observed upon the FSS mechanosensation. In these cells, increased pannexin-1 mRNA expression was observed. Importantly, pannexin-1 inhibition in pkd2-MO decreased the renal cyst growth. Our results demonstrate that pannexin-1 channels mediate ATP release into the tubular lumen due to pro-urinary flow. We present pannexin-1 as novel therapeutic target to prevent the renal cyst growth in PKD.

Abstract
It is unknown whether early diagnosis of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) can enable earlier management and improve outcomes. We conducted a post hoc analysis of data from the TEMPO 3:4 trial. Subjects were stratified by ADPKD diagnosis at age ≤18 (childhood diagnosis [CD]) or>18 (adulthood diagnosis [AD]). Groups were compared for baseline characteristics and total kidney volume (TKV) growth and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) decline over 3 years. 294 CD and 1148 AD subjects were analyzed. At inclusion, CD subjects were younger (mean age 34.2 versus 39.8 years; p < 0.0001) and had better eGFR (mean ± SD 87.4 ± 23.9 versus 80.1 ± 20.7 mL/min/1.73 m2; p < 0.0001), while CD had more severe Mayo risk classification (p < 0.0001) and more PKD1 mutations (p = 0.003). No statistical differences were found in TKV or eGFR change. At study end, placebo-treated CD subjects had better eGFR than projected by a prediction equation (mean difference ±SD for observed versus predicted eGFR: 2.18 ± 10.7 mL/min/1.73 m2; p = 0.0475). However, these results are not confirmed when excluding stage 1 CKD. Whether CD subjects, despite their risk profile, have a slower disease course than predicted remains inconclusive. Future studies are needed to confirm that early diagnosis and management can alter the disease course of ADPKD.

Abstract
Since its discovery, arginine vasopressin (AVP) was subjected to several modifications with the aim of obtaining novel derivatives with increased potency and selectivity for biomedical use. Desmopressin (dDAVP) is a first generation synthetic analog of AVP with hemostatic and antimetastatic activity. dDAVP acts as a selective agonist of the arginine vasopressin type 2 receptor (AVPR2) present in microvascular endothelium and cancer cells. Considering its selective effects on AVPR2-expressing malignant and vascular tissue, and interesting antitumor profile, dDAVP was used as a lead compound for the development of novel peptide analogs with enhanced anticancer efficacy. After conducting different structure-activity relationship studies to determine key aminoacidic positions for its antitumor activity against AVPR2-expressing malignant cells, dDAVP was rationally modified and a wide panel of synthetic analogs with different sequence and structural modifications was assessed. As a result of this structure-based drug derivatization novel AVP analog [V4Q5]dDAVP (1-deamino-4-valine-5-glutamine-8-d-arginine vasopressin) was selected as the most active candidate and further developed. [V4Q5]dDAVP was evaluated in highly aggressive and metastatic cancer preclinical models deploying enhanced cytostatic, antimetastatic and angiostatic effects in comparison to parental peptide dDAVP. In addition, novel compound demonstrated good tolerability as evaluated in several toxicological studies, and cooperative therapeutic effects after combination with standard-of-care chemotherapy. In summary, due to its ability to inhibit growth and tumor-associated angiogenesis, as well as impairing progression of metastatic disease, AVP analogs such as novel [V4Q5]dDAVP are promising compounds for further development as coadjuvant agents for the management of advance or recurrent cancers.
