Novel compound heterozygous mutations in SLC5A2 are responsible for autosomal recessive renal glucosuria

Abstract: Familial renal glucosuria is an inherited renal tubular disorder. A homozygous nonsense mutation in the SLC5A2 gene, encoding the sodium/glucose co-transporter SGLT2, has recently been identified in an affected child of consanguineous parents. We now report novel compound heterozygous mutations in the son of non-consanguineous parents. One allele has a p.Q167fsX186 mutation, which is expected to produce a truncated protein, and the other a p.N654S mutation involving a highly conserved residue. These findings c… Show more

“…Glucose entering the glomerulus through passive filtration is reabsorbed by the combined actions of SGLT2 and SGLT1 in the S1 and S3 segments of the proximal tubule, respectively. Genetic functional data suggest that the urinary glucose excretion (UGE) associated with impaired SGLT2 function represents a safe and effective approach for managing the hyperglycemia associated with T2DM (20)(21)(22). Other attractive features of this mechanism include its non-insulin-dependent nature and the potential for weight loss due to the caloric loss associated with UGE.…”

“…Mutations in the SGLT1 gene cause glucose/galactose malabsorption, and patients with this disorder suffer from significant gastrointestinal dysfunction, but they show only mild renal glucosuria (Turk et al, 1991;Martín et al, 1996). On the other hand, mutations in the SGLT2 gene result in renal glucosuria (van den Heuvel et al, 2002;Calado et al, 2004). These findings indicate that SGLT2 plays a dominant role in the control of glucose transport in the kidney.…”

“…Two types of sodium glucose cotransporters mediate this reabsorption. The lowaffinity sodium glucose cotransporter (SGLT2) is found almost exclusively in the kidney (Kanai et al, 1994), and several mutations in the human SGLT2 gene can cause renal glucosuria (van den Heuvel et al, 2002;Calado et al, 2004). Although the high-affinity sodium glucose cotransporter (SGLT1) is expressed to some extent in the kidney and contributes to glucose reabsorption, it is mainly expressed in the small intestine, where it is important in glucose absorption Wright, 2001).…”
