BACKGROUND Familial juvenile hyperuricaemic nephropathy (FJHN) is an autosomal-dominant disorder featuring hyperuricaemia, low fractional urate excretion, interstitial nephritis and chronic renal failure. The responsible gene UMOD was recently identified. UMOD encodes for uromodulin or Tamm-Horsfall glycoprotein, the most abundant protein in normal urine. We encountered a family with FJHN and i...
Familial juvenile hyperuricemic nephropathy (FJHN [MIM 162000]) is an autosomal-dominant disorder characterized by abnormal tubular handling of urate and late development of chronic interstitial nephritis leading to progressive renal failure. A locus for FJHN was previously identified on chromosome 16p12 close to the MCKD2 locus, which is responsible for a variety of autosomal-dominant medullar...
BACKGROUND Many avenues have been proposed for a seamless transition between biomarker discovery data and selected reaction monitoring (SRM) assays for biomarker validation. Unfortunately, studies with the abundant urinary protein uromodulin have shown that these methods do not converge on a consistent set of surrogate peptides for targeted mass spectrometry. As an alternative, we present an em...
The disease complex medullary cystic disease/familial juvenile hyperuricemic nephropathy (MCKD/FJHN) is characterized by alteration of urinary concentrating ability, frequent hyperuricemia, tubulo-interstitial fibrosis, cysts at the cortico-medullary junction and renal failure. MCKD/FJHN is caused by mutations of the gene encoding uromodulin, the most abundant protein in urine. Here, we describ...
Familial juvenile hyperuricaemic nephropathy (FJHN) and medullary cystic kidney disease (MCKD) are rare autosomal-dominant disorders, both characterized by early hyperuricaemia due to reduced urinary excretion of urate and the development of chronic interstitial nephropathy, most often leading to end-stage renal failure (ESRF) in adulthood. Although a history of gout is more frequently reported...
Tamm–Horsfall protein was discovered in 1950 by Igor Tamm and Frank Horsfall, using a salt precipitation procedure to isolate a potent inhibitor of viral hemagglutination from urine. Muchmore and Decker, in 1985, isolated a glycoprotein (calling it uromodulin) with in vitro immunosuppressive properties from urine of pregnant women. In 1987, Pennica et al confirmed by cDNA analysis that uromodul...

Uromodulin-associated kidney disease is a heritable renal disease in humans caused by mutations in the uromodulin (UMOD) gene. The pathogenesis of the disease is mostly unknown. In this study, we describe a novel chemically induced mutant mouse line termed Umod(A227T) exhibiting impaired renal function. The A227T amino acid exchange may impair uromodulin trafficking, leading to dysfunction of t...
Uromodulin is the most abundant protein secreted in urine, in which it is found as a high-molecular-weight polymer. Polymerization occurs via its zona pellucida (ZP) domain, a conserved module shared by many extracellular eukaryotic proteins that are able to assemble into matrices. In this work, we identified two motifs in uromodulin, mapping in the linker region of the ZP domain and in between...
Hypertension is a heritable and major contributor to the global burden of disease. The sum of rare and common genetic variants robustly identified so far explain only 1%-2% of the population variation in BP and hypertension. This suggests the existence of more undiscovered common variants. We conducted a genome-wide association study in 1,621 hypertensive cases and 1,699 controls and follow-up ...
