Gene involved in hypercalciuria, gene products, and renal phenotype [93].
Gene | Gene product/function | Renal phenotype |
---|---|---|
VDR | Vitamin D receptor | Decreased calcium reabsorption leading to hypercalciuria and nephrocalcinosis |
CLCNS | Cl/H antiporter | Inactivating mutation causes hypercalciuria, hyperphosphaturia, low molecular weight proteinuria, nephrocalcinosis, stone |
CASR | Calcium sensing receptor | Gain of function mutation produces hypercalciuria, nephrocalcinosis, stone |
CLDN16 | Tight junction protein | Hypercalciuria, magnesium wasting, nephrocalcinosis, stone |
NPT2a/c | Sodium phosphate cotransporter | Hypercalciuria, hypophosphatemia, phosphate wasting, nephrocalcinosis, stone |
TRPV5 | Calcium selective transient receptor potential channel | Hypercalciuria, hyperphosphaturia |
sAC | Soluble adenylate cyclase/bicarbonate exchanger/ | Hypercalciuria, stones |
KLOTHO | Aging suppression protein/regulator of calcium homeostasis | Hypercalciuria |
