Overview
Medullary cystic kidney disease (MCKD) is an autosomal dominant kidney disorder characterized by tubulointerstitial sclerosis leading to end-stage renal disease. Autosomal dominant interstitial kidney disease (ADIKD) is a rare and heterogeneous genetic disorder .
Medullary cystic kidney disease (MCKD) − MCKD is another term that has been used for ADIKD.
Classification
Medullary cystic kidney disease may be classified according to genetic mutation into :
- Mutations in the UMOD gene, which encodes uromodulin are present in the majority of cases of ADIKD . This condition has also called uromodulin-associated kidney disease (UAKD) , medullary cystic kidney disease type 2 (MCKD2) and familial juvenile hyperuricemic nephropathy (FJHN) .
- Mutations in the REN gene, which encodes renin.
- Mutations in the MUC1 gene, which encodes mucin 1 ,called as medullary cystic kidney disease type 1 (MCKD1).[1]
Pathophysiology
- Uromodulin associated kidney disease ( UAKD ) :
- UAKD is due to mutations in the UMOD gene on chromosome 16p12, which encodes uromodulin (Tamm-Horsfall mucoprotein).
- Missense Mutation in exon 4 or 5 , it very rare mutation in exons 6 or 8
- Uromodulin is produced exclusively in the thick ascending limb of the loop of Henle . It is an insoluble protein whose sticky, adherent properties are probably important in maintaining the watertight integrity of the thick ascending limb.
- Uromodulin also appears to facilitate intracellular transport of both the Na-K-2Cl furosemide-sensitive transporter and the ROMK potassium channel on the apical surface of the thick ascending loop tubular cells .
- intracellular accumulation of abnormal uromodulin proteins can lead to tubular cell atrophy and death.
- The abnormal uromodulin appears to impair the synthesis and secretion of normal uromodulin produced from the unaffected allele, resulting in a marked reduction in urinary uromodulin excretion. [2]
- There is two major pathophysiologic effects of uromodulin gene mutations (1 ) hyperuricemia , ( 2 ) progressive chronic kidney disease .
- Hyperuricemia :
- Is due to accumulation of abnormal uromodulin in thick ascending limb cells leads sequentially to impaired NaCl reabsorption, mild renal salt wasting, volume contraction, and a secondary increase in proximal urate reabsorption , which restores volume status to normal but leads to hyperuricemia.
- Progressive chronic kidney disease :
- Is due to tubular cell death in the thick ascending limb due to accumulation of mutant uromodulin.Renal biopsy reveals tubulointerstitial disease but no uric acid crystals. [3]
- Mutations in the REN gene :
- The renin gene is located on chromosome 1.Two REN gene mutations associated with ADIKD which is due to signal sequence of pre-prorenin.
- Mutations in this signal sequence disrupt the translocation of pre-prorenin into the endoplasmic reticulum of renin expressing cells.
- Renin is necessary for nephrogenesis, homozygous deletions of renin result in death during uterine development .
- Renin is present in multiple segments of the renal tubule, also on the juxtaglomerular complex. In these cells, pre-prorenin is translocated into the endoplasmic reticulum, where it is converted to prorenin.
- prorenin is secreted, while the remainder is targeted to lysosomes where it is further cleaved to active renin.
- Mutations which disrupt the signal sequence of prorenin prevent proper translocation to the endoplasmic reticulum,as a result accumulation of pre-prorenin in the cytoplasm of renin producing cells.
- Due to accumulation of pre-prorenin in renal tubular cells leads to ultrastructural damage and apoptosis .[4]
