iScience . 2023 Nov; 26(11):108278. PMID: 38026227
Metabolic reprogramming is a driver of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) progression and a potential therapeutic intervention route. We showed before that the AMP-associated protein kinase (AMPK) activator salsalate...

Clin J Am Soc Nephrol . 2022 Mar; 17(4):507-517. PMID: 35314480
Background And Objectives: The vasopressin V2 receptor antagonist tolvaptan is the only drug that has been proven to be nephroprotective in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). Tolvaptan also causes...

Kanhai A, Bange H, Verburg L, Dijkstra K, Price L, Peters D, et al.
Sci Rep . 2020 Feb; 10(1):1672. PMID: 32015419
Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) is one of the most common monogenic disorders, characterized by the progressive formation of fluid-filled cysts. Tolvaptan is an approved drug for ADPKD patients,...

Malas T, Leonhard W, Bange H, Granchi Z, Hettne K, van Westen G, et al.
EBioMedicine . 2019 Dec; 51:102585. PMID: 31879244
Background: Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) is one of the most common causes of end-stage renal failure, caused by mutations in PKD1 or PKD2 genes. Tolvaptan, the only drug...

Leonhard W, Song X, Kanhai A, Iliuta I, Bozovic A, Steinberg G, et al.
EBioMedicine . 2019 Sep; 47:436-445. PMID: 31473186
Background: Multiple preclinical studies have highlighted AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) as a potential therapeutic target for autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). Both metformin and canagliflozin indirectly activate AMPK by...

Biomed Pharmacother . 2018 Oct; 108:1123-1134. PMID: 30372813
Mutations in the PKD1 or PKD2 genes are the cause of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). The encoded proteins localize within the cell membrane and primary cilia and are...
