Research on autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease / 上海交通大学学报（医学版）

ABSTRACT

Polycystic kidney disease is a common human congenital hereditary disease, which can be divided into autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease and autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease by genetic methods. In addition to the kidney changes, polycystic kidney disease may also involve multiple body organs and seriously endanger human health. In recent years, studies on etiology and pathogenesis ( especially molecular biology), diagnosis and treatment of polycystic kidney disease have progressed by leaps and bounds. This paper briefly summaries the research status and development of the most common autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease.
