Polycystic kideny disease in Kif3atm1Gsn/Kif3atm2Gsn Tg(Cdh16-cre)91Igr/0 mutant mice

behavior/neurological
• mice exhibit lethargy by P35

growth/size/body
• mutant kidneys contain multiple, fluid-filled cysts in both the cortex and medulla
• cysts are first noted at P5 as fusiform dilatations of the collecting ducts in the renal medulla
• cyst epithelial cells lack primary cilia and display altered cell polarity as well as increased proliferation and apoptosis
• cysts are first noted at P5 as fusiform dilatations of the collecting ducts in the renal medulla
• by P35, the renal parenchyma is entirely replaced with multiple, large fluid-filled cysts
• mice display growth retardation by P35
• at P28, mutant kidneys are grossly enlarged

renal/urinary system
• cilia are present in neonatal collecting ducts prior to the onset of cyst formation (P5), but are lost during postnatal development
• mice lack tubulin-positive cilia on the luminal surfaces of most cyst epithelial cells derived from the loops of Henle and collecting ducts
• cilia are missing from the surface of epithelial cells lining the cysts but are present in adjacent noncystic tubules
• cyst epithelial cells display increased apoptosis
• mutant kidneys contain multiple, fluid-filled cysts in both the cortex and medulla
• cysts are first noted at P5 as fusiform dilatations of the collecting ducts in the renal medulla
• cyst epithelial cells lack primary cilia and display altered cell polarity as well as increased proliferation and apoptosis
• cysts are first noted at P5 as fusiform dilatations of the collecting ducts in the renal medulla
• by P35, the renal parenchyma is entirely replaced with multiple, large fluid-filled cysts
• at P28, mutant kidneys are grossly enlarged
• advanced kidney cysts are surrounded by areas of interstitial fibrosis
• advanced kidney cysts are surrounded by atrophic tubules
• mice exhibit renal failure by P21

homeostasis/metabolism
• mice exhibit a rapid increase in BUN levels after P14

cellular
• cilia are present in neonatal collecting ducts prior to the onset of cyst formation (P5), but are lost during postnatal development
• mice lack tubulin-positive cilia on the luminal surfaces of most cyst epithelial cells derived from the loops of Henle and collecting ducts
• cilia are missing from the surface of epithelial cells lining the cysts but are present in adjacent noncystic tubules
