Title: Kidney manifestations of mitochondrial disorders
Author: Katarina GAZDIKOVA, Andrea FOJTOVA, Lucia TICHA

Abstract: Mitochondria are intracellular organelles involved in a number of key biologic processes in the cell, including energy production, redox signaling, calcium homeostasis, inflammation, senescence, innate immune response, and mitophagy. Mitochondrial cytopathies include a heterogeneous group of diseases that are characterized by impaired oxidative phosphorylation, leading to multi-organ involvement and progressive clinical deterioration. Mitochondrial cytopathies can result from mitochondrial or nuclear DNA mutations. Mitochondrial defects play an important role in the pathogenesis of nephropathies as tubular syndromes, interstitial nephritis, focal and segmental glomerulosclerosis and diabetic nephropathy. The role of mitochondria in a pathogenesis of nephrotoxicity and kidney carcinogenesis is also discussed (Tab. 2, Fig. 7, Ref. 100).

Keywords: mitochondrial nephropathy, interstitial nephritis, glomerulosclerosis, diabetic nephropathy, nephrotoxicity, mitochondrial cytopathies
