This book reviews important aspects of polycystic kidney diseases,
the latest scientific understanding of the diseases and syndromes,
along with the therapies being developed. Cystic kidney diseases
comprise a spectrum of genetic syndromes defined by renal cyst
formation and expansion with variable extrarenal manifestations.
The most prevalent disorder is the autosomal dominant polycystic
kidney disease (ADPKD). It is the most common monogenetic disorder
in humans and accounts for 4.4% of end-stage renal disease (ESRD)
cases in the U.S. Patients inevitably progress to ESRD and require
renal replacement therapy in the form of dialysis or
transplantation. Through advancements in genomics and proteomics
approaches, novel genes responsible for cystic diseases have been
identified, further expanding our understanding of basic mechanisms
of disease pathogenesis. The hallmark among all cystic genetic
syndromes is the formation and growth of fluid-filled cysts, which
originate from tubular epithelia of nephron segments. Cysts are the
disease, and treatment strategies are being developed to target
prevention or delay of cyst formation and expansion at an early
stage, however no such therapy is currently approved.
