“…Our studies suggest that CF carriers (ϩ/Ϫ) also may have a somewhat milder clinical PKD course, although the effect could be difficult to detect and quantify, but it also should be noted that patients who have ADPKD and co-inheriting CF are not completely protected from cystic disease (27,28,68), suggesting that non-CFTR-based mechanisms may be present to allow cyst growth in ADPKD.…”

“…9,11 We used here an established neonatal kidney organ culture model to test the efficacy of PPQ-102 to reduce cyst volume. Intact kidney models to study cystogenesis, although technically more difficult than cell culture models such as MDCK cells grown in collagen gels, are superior in recapitulating native kidney anatomy and cellular phenotype.…”

“…Enhanced cAMP-induced Cl -secretion [50] through CFTR is implicated in fluid secretion by renal cysts in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). A role for CFTR in autosomal recessive PKD is less certain, since cystic disease progression in a mouse model of ARPKD was not influenced by loss of CFTR (BPK mouse crossed with the CFTR knockout mouse) [51,52]. This finding suggests that other non-CFTR Clchannels expressed in renal collecting duct principal cells may compensate for loss of CFTR.…”
