Mutant Cullin causes cardiovascular compromise
Mendelian hypertension is rare; however, Mendelian syndromes have taught us an amazing amount about mechanisms of distal sodium and chloride reabsorption, as well as how systemic hypertension might come about. In this issue of EMBO Molecular Medicine, Schumacher et al (2015) present a mouse model of the Cullin-3 (CUL3D403–459) mutation, which causes a form of pseudohypoaldosteronism type-2 (PHA...
متن کاملMutant Cullin 3 causes familial hyperkalemic hypertension via dominant effects.
Mutations in the ubiquitin ligase scaffold protein Cullin 3 (CUL3) cause the disease familial hyperkalemic hypertension (FHHt). In the kidney, mutant CUL3 (CUL3-Δ9) increases abundance of With-No-Lysine [K] Kinase 4 (WNK4), with excessive activation of the downstream Sterile 20 (STE20)/SPS-1-related proline/alanine-rich kinase (SPAK) increasing phosphorylation of the Na+-Cl- cotransporter (NCC)...
متن کاملMutant calreticulin causes essential thrombocythemia
Polycythemia vera (PV), essential thrombocythemia (ET), and primary myelofibrosis (PMF) are categorized as myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs). All are characterized by the autonomous growth of one or more lineages of hematopoietic cells, splenomegaly, constitutional symptoms such as fatigue, night sweating, itching, and weight loss, and is frequently complicated by thrombosis and hemorrhage. J...
متن کاملCardiovascular causes of falls.
Cardiovascular disorders are responsible for as many as 77% of patients presenting to Accident and Emergency Departments with unexplained or recurrent falls and falls associated with unexplained loss of consciousness [1]. The importance of these disorders as a group is emphasized by the fact that fallers with an intrinsic cardiac cause have a greater mortality than those with non-cardiovascular...
متن کاملThe effects of cardiovascular risk factors on cognitive compromise
As life expectancy in the United States continues to increase, the projected numbers of elderly people who will develop dementia will grow rapidly. This paper reviews four well-established cardiovascular risk factors (type 2 diabetes, hypertension, cholesterol, and inflammation), for which there is longitudinal epidemiological evidence of increased risk of dementia, Alzheimer's disease, mild co...
