Radiation therapy is crucial for cancer treatment, but it often causes tissue damage. The kidney, which is sensitive to radiation, is under-researched in this context. This study aimed to develop a mouse model for radiation-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) using a small animal radiation research platform (SARRP) to mimic clinical radiation conditions.

Most patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) develop kidney cysts due to germline mutations. In the kidney, loss impairs epithelial cell integrity and increases macrophage infiltration, contributing to cyst growth. Despite its role as the body's largest inflammatory cell reservoir, it has yet to be elucidated whether a similar phenotype presents in the intestines.

Kidney disease is a common complication of monoclonal immunoglobulin (MIg)-secreting B-cell disorders and predominantly occurs in patients who do not meet the criteria for an overt hematological disease. To distinguish this situation from monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance, which lacks organ damage, the term monoclonal gammopathy of renal significance (MGRS) was introduced to depict the association of a small, otherwise indolent B-cell clone, with renal disease induced by the secreted MIg. The spectrum of renal disorders in MGRS is wide, encompassing both tubular and glomerular disorders, classified according to the composition of deposits and their ultrastructural pattern of organization.

Article Synopsis
  • Whole-exome sequencing of two siblings with multicystic dysplastic kidneys led to the discovery of a rare variant in the TSHZ3 gene, which was investigated for its association with CAKUT in humans.
  • Among CAKUT patients, those with TSHZ3 variants exhibited a higher incidence of kidney-related issues and associated developmental anomalies, suggesting that TSHZ3 plays a significant role in these conditions.
