Transcription profiling of mouse KO Clcn5-/- model for Dents disease in kidney, bone and intestine

ABSTRACT: Mutations in ClC-5 cause Dent's disease, a disorder associated with low molecular weight proteinuria, hyperphosphaturia and kidney stones. ClC-5 is a Cl /H+-exchanger predominantly expressed in the kidney, where it facilitates the acidification of proximal tubular endosomes. The reduction in proximal tubular endocytosis resulting from a lack of ClC-5 raises the luminal concentration of filtered proteins and peptides like PTH.

We used gene expression profiling to identify possible signaling pathways that might be changed in ClC-5 KO kidneys, bones and intestines.
