Genetic and Biological Effects of SLC12A3, a Sodium-Chloride Cotransporter, in Gitelman Syndrome and Diabetic Kidney Disease

The SLC12A3 (Solute carrier family 12 member 3) gene encodes a sodium-chloride cotransporter and mediates Na+ and Cl− reabsorption in the distal convoluted tubule of kidneys. An experimental study has previously showed that with knockdown of zebrafish ortholog, slc12a3 led to structural abnormality...
