Q

what is the role of polycystin 1 and 2 proteins?

A

Components of primary cillia= appendages that stick out from cells and receives developmentally important signals – when filtrate flows through nephron cillia bend allowing influx of calcium which activates pathway of cell inhibition of proliferation

Q

what is the pathophysiology of ADPD?

A

absence of component of primary prevents inhibition of cell proliferation - cells to continue to proliferate abnormally – expresses proteins that allow water to enter lumen of cyst – grow in size

19
Q

what is the structure of collagen?

A

o Sheet like structure composed of tightly packed heterotrimers (made of 3 alpha chains composed of Alpha 3/Alpha 4/Alpha)

20
Q

what is the consequence of Alports Disease on collagen?

A

o Mutations mean glycine molecule is replaced with larger molecule – can’t pack tightly

21
Q

what is the pathophysiology of Alports Disease?

A
  • Missing or non function collagen IV causes GBM to become thin + more porous
  • Allows red blood cells to pass (haematuria) – proteins are able to pass through (proteinuria) – GBM undergoes sclerosis – renal failure + hypertension
22
Q

what are the clinical features of alports?

A

Haematuria – (microscopic, then macroscopic + proteinuria)
Raised BP
Sensorineural deafness
Anterior lenticonus

23
Q

what is the histology features of Alports disease?

A

variable thickened GBM with splitting, basket weave

24
Q

what is the management of Alports Disease?

A

no specific treatment
standard aggressive treatment of BP, proteinuria
Dialysis/Transplantation

25
Q

what is the cause of Anderson Fabry’s Disease

A

deficiency of a-galactosidase A due to X linked mutation

26
Q

what is the pathophysiology of Anderson Fabry’s Disease?

A

error of glycosphingolipid metabolism leading to accumulation of globotriasylceramide within blood vessels, kidneys, liver, lungs, erythrocytes

27
Q

what are the clinical features of Anderson Fabry’s Disease?

A
  • Renal failure
  • Cutaneous – angiokeratomas
  • Cardiac – cardiomyopathy, valvular disease
  • Neurological – stroke, acroparaesthesia
  • Psychiatric
28
Q

how is Anderson Fabry’s Disease diagnosed?

A
  • Plasma/leukocyte a-GAL activity
  • Renal biopsy
  • Skin biopsy
29
Q

what are the histological features of Anderson Fabry’s Disease?

A

concentric lamellar inclusions with lysomes

30
Q

what is the management of Anderson Fabry’s Disease?

A
  • Enzyme replacement – fabryzyme – once a month infusions for rest of life
  • Management of complications – dialysis or transplant
31
Q

what is the shared pathophysiology of Nephronophthisis and MCKD?

A
  • Interstitium is infiltrated by macrophages + becomes fibrotic
  • Tubules lose ability to concentrate urine
  • Glomeruli become sclerosed and cysts appear renal insufficiency – renal failure
32
Q

where do cysts arise in Nephronophthisis and MCKD?

A

corticomedullary junction

33
Q

what are the shared clinical features of Nephronophthisis and MCKD?

A
  • Polyuria
  • Polydipsia
  • Salt wasting (sodium in urine)
  • Renal failure
  • No proteinuria/haematuria
  • Shrunken kidneys
34
Q

what are the differences between Nephronophthisis and MCKD?

A

Nephronophthisis - young onset, affects other organs

MCKD - older onset, doesn’t affect other organs

35
Q

what is the cause of Nephronophthisis?

A

autosomal recessive mutation in NPHP1 gene

36
Q

what is the cause of MCKD?

A

autosomal dominant
o Type 1 – MCKD1 = MUC1 gene
o Type 2 – MCKD2 – UMOD

37
Q

how is Nephronophthisis and MCKD diagnosed?

A
  • FH

* Ct scan

38
Q

what is the macroscopic features of Nephronophthisis and MCKD?

A

Shrunken cortex + medulla macroscopically

39
Q

what is the management of Nephronophthisis and MCKD?

A

Transplant

40
Q

what is the cause of medullar sponge kidney?

A

disruption at the uretic bud – metanephric mesenchyme

41
Q

what is the normal development of the mesonephric duct?

A

o Week5 urethritic bud starts to push into the metanephric organs
o Week 7 – nephrogenesis under influence of uretic bud
o Week 20
 uretic bud = ureteric calyces, collecting ducts + collecting tubules
 metanephridia blastema = nephrons

42
Q

what is the underlying mechanism of medullar sponge kidney?

A

• Abnormal induction of metaphoric blastema by ureteric bud – due to either mesonephric duct nor forming properly, uretic bud or both

43
Q

what is the pathophysiology of medullar sponge kidney?

A
  • Dilated collecting ducts, cyst formation around collecting ducts
  • Kidneys can’t reabsorb + secrete –
44
Q

what is the consequence of medullar sponge kidney?

A

raised calcium, phosphate, oxalate – kidney stones

Stones + cysts cause obstruction – stasis – infection and further stones

45
Q

what are the clinical features of medullar sponge kidney?

A
  • Haematuria
  • Renal colic
  • Kidney stones
  • Recurrent UTIs
46
Q

how is medullar sponge kidney diagnosed?

A

excretion urography

47
Q

what is the management of medullar sponge kidney?

A
  • Pain control
  • Potassium citrate
  • Antibiotics for UTI
