CLCN5 Gene Chloride Voltage-Gated Channel 5
CLCN5 gene chloride voltage-gated channel 5 Normal Function The CLCN5 gene provides instructions for making a protein called ClC-5 that transports charged atoms (ions) across cell membranes. Specifically, ClC-5 exchanges negatively charged atoms of chlorine (chloride ions) for positively charged atoms of hydrogen ( protons or hydrogen ions). Based on this function, ClC-5 is known as a H+/Cl- exchanger. ClC-5 is found primarily in the kidneys, particularly in structures called proximal tubules. These structures help to reabsorb nutrients, water, and other materials that have been filtered from the bloodstream. The kidneys reabsorb needed materials into the blood and excrete everything else into the urine. Within proximal tubule cells, ClC-5 is embedded in specialized compartments called endosomes. Endosomes are formed at the cell surface to carry proteins and other molecules to their destinations within the cell. ClC-5 transports hydrogen ions into endosomes and chloride ions out, which helps these compartments maintain the proper acidity level (pH). Endosomal pH levels must be tightly regulated for proximal tubule cells to function properly. Health Conditions Related to Genetic Changes Dent disease About 150 mutations in the CLCN5 gene have been found to cause Dent disease 1, a chronic kidney disorder that can cause kidney failure. Most of the mutations lead to the production of an abnormally short, nonfunctional version of ClC-5 or prevent cells from producing any of this protein. A loss of ClC-5 alters the regulation of endosomal pH, which disrupts the overall function of proximal tubule cells and prevents them from reabsorbing proteins and other materials into the bloodstream. -
Hereditary Kidney Disorders

HEREDITARY KIDNEY DISORDERS Ana Stavljenić-Rukavina 5.1 Introduction Hereditary kidney disorders represent significant risk for the development of end stage renal desease (ESRD). Most of them are recognized in childhood, or prenataly particularly those phenotypicaly expressed as anomalies on ultrasound examination (US) during pregnancy. They represent almost 50% of all fetal malformations detected by US (1). Furthermore many of urinary tract malformations are associated with renal dysplasia which leeds to renal failure. Recent advances in molecular genetics have made a great impact on better understanding of underlying molecular mechanisms in different kidney and urinary tract disorders found in childhood or adults. Even some of clinical syndromes were not recognized earlier as genetic one. In monogenic kidney diseases gene mutations have been identified for Alport syndrome and thin basement membrane disease, autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease, and tubular transporter disorders. There is evident progress in studies of polygenic renal disorders as glomerulopathies and diabetic nephropathy. The expanded knowledge on renal physiology and pathophysiology by analyzing the phenotypes caused by defected genes might gain to earlier diagnosis and provide new diagnostic and prognostic tool. The global increasing number of patients with ESRD urges the identification of molecular pathways involved in renal pathophysiology in order to serve as targets for either prevention or intervention. Molecular genetics nowadays possess significant tools that can be used to identify genes involved in renal disease including gene expression arrays, linkage analysis and association studies. -
Transcriptomic and Proteomic Profiling Provides Insight Into

The immune complexes are deposited in the glomerular mesangium, leading to inflammation and loss of renal function, but the complete pathophysiology of the disease is not understood. Using an integrated global transcriptomic and proteomic profiling approach, we investigated the role of the mesangium in the onset and progression of IgAN. Global gene expression was investigated by microarray analysis of the glomerular compartment of renal biopsy specimens from patients with IgAN (n=19) and controls (n=22). Using curated glomerular cell type–specific genes from the published literature, we found differential expression of a much higher percentage of mesangial cell–positive standard genes than podocyte-positive standard genes in IgAN. Principal coordinate analysis of expression data revealed clear separation of patient and control samples on the basis of mesangial but not podocyte cell–positive standard genes. -
Ion Channels 3 1
r r r Cell Signalling Biology Michael J. Berridge Module 3 Ion Channels 3 1 Module 3 Ion Channels Synopsis Ion channels have two main signalling functions: either they can generate second messengers or they can function as effectors by responding to such messengers. Their role in signal generation is mainly centred on the Ca2 + signalling pathway, which has a large number of Ca2+ entry channels and internal Ca2+ release channels, both of which contribute to the generation of Ca2 + signals. Ion channels are also important effectors in that they mediate the action of different intracellular signalling pathways. There are a large number of K+ channels and many of these function in different + aspects of cell signalling. The voltage-dependent K (KV) channels regulate membrane potential and + excitability. The inward rectifier K (Kir) channel family has a number of important groups of channels + + such as the G protein-gated inward rectifier K (GIRK) channels and the ATP-sensitive K (KATP) + + channels. The two-pore domain K (K2P) channels are responsible for the large background K current. Some of the actions of Ca2 + are carried out by Ca2+-sensitive K+ channels and Ca2+-sensitive Cl − channels. The latter are members of a large group of chloride channels and transporters with multiple functions. There is a large family of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters some of which have a signalling role in that they extrude signalling components from the cell. One of the ABC transporters is the cystic − − fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) that conducts anions (Cl and HCO3 )and contributes to the osmotic gradient for the parallel flow of water in various transporting epithelia. -

In vivo, LV-10 cells do not cause graft-versus-host disease while mediating graft-versus-leukemia effect against adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Since pediatric AML (pAML) and adult AML are different on a genetic and epigenetic level, we investigate herein whether LV-10 cells also efficiently kill pAML cells. We show that the majority of primary pAML are killed by LV-10 cells, with different levels of sensitivity to killing. Transcriptionally, pAML sensitive to LV-10 killing expressed a myeloid maturation signature. -

AGRP neurons are a key hypothalamic population 23 that is activated during energy deficit and increases appetite and weight-gain. Cell type-specific 24 transcriptomics can be used to identify pathways that counteract weight-loss, and here we 25 report high-quality gene expression profiles of AGRP neurons from well-fed and food-deprived 26 young adult mice. For comparison, we also analyzed POMC neurons, an intermingled 27 population that suppresses appetite and body weight. We find that AGRP neurons are 28 considerably more sensitive to energy deficit than POMC neurons.
