TitleRenal Fanconi syndrome and hypoposphatemic rickets in mice deficient for retroviral receptor XPR1 in the nephron
DescriptionTight control of both extracellular and intracellular inorganic phosphate (Pi) levels is critical to the normal functioning of virtually all biochemical and physiological processes. The kidney participates in Pi homeostasis by controlling Pi reabsorption from the primary urine. Pi is freely filtered at the kidney glomerulus and is reabsorbed in the renal tubule by the action of the apical sodium-dependent phosphate transporters NaPi-IIa/NaPi-IIc/Pit2. The molecular identity of transporter(s) involved in the basolateral Pi efflux remains unknown. Recent evidence has suggested that the retroviral receptor XPR1 might be a candidate for this role. Here we show that conditional inactivation of Xpr1 in the renal tubule in mice results in impaired renal Pi reabsorption associated with a generalized proximal tubular dysfunction, or Fanconi syndrome, characterized by glycosuria, aminoaciduria, calciuria and albuminuria. Bone histomorphometry showed that the Xpr1-deficient mice develop hypophosphatemic osteomalacia secondary to the renal dysfunction. The analysis of Pi transport in primary culture of the proximal tubular cells revealed that the Pi efflux was significantly affected in cells devoid of Xpr1. These results identify XPR1 as a major player in Pi homeostasis and as a potential therapeutic target in bone and kidney disorders.
