Hypercalciuria in Familial Hyperkalemia and Hypertension with KLHL3 Mutations

Abstract: Background: Familial hyperkalemia and hypertension (FHHt) is a rare genetic disorder manifested by hyperkalemia and early hypertension. Hypercalciuria is another accompanying feature. Mutations in WNK4 and WNK1 were found initially, and recently additional mutations were found in two genes, KLHL3 and CUL3, which are components of the Ubiquitin system. It was not reported whether these latter mutations are accompanied by hypercalciuria. Methods: We compared urinary calcium excretion (UCa) in affected subjects w… Show more

“…The disease is inherited in an autosomal dominant way, except for recessive transmission in some cases caused by KLHL3 mutations (Boyden et al 2012). In addition to hyperkalemia and hypertension associated with Na retention, FHHt is characterized by hypercalciuria (Mayan et al 2002(Mayan et al , 2015 but normomagnesuria rather than hypomagnesuria (Mayan et al 2002). All the abnormalities are corrected by low doses of thiazides (Mayan et al 2002).…”
