The Role of Uromodulin in the Regulation of the Renal Calcium Channel TRPV5

Description: Elevated calcium levels in human urine, called hypercalciuria, are a significant risk factor for kidney stones. Mouse models carrying Uromodulin (Umod) mutations display significant hypercalciuria but only limited understanding about the function of UMOD exists. This proposal seeks to improve our knowledge how UMOD, the most abundant protein in urine, modifies calcium channels in the kidney in order to better treat kidney stones.
