Renal Aminoacidurias (Aminoaciduria, Renal)

A group of inherited kidney disorders characterized by the abnormally elevated levels of AMINO ACIDS in URINE. Genetic mutations of transport proteins result in the defective reabsorption of free amino acids at the PROXIMAL RENAL TUBULES. Renal aminoaciduria are classified by the specific amino acid or acids involved.

Drugs and Biologics

Drugs and Important Biological Agents (IBA) related to Renal Aminoacidurias:

1.	Uric Acid (Urate)IBA 09/28/1974 - "Renal clearance studies showed that the hypouricaemia was associated with an increased urate clearance, renal aminoaciduria, and an episodic increase in phosphate clearance. "
2.	Glucose (Dextrose)FDA LinkGeneric 02/01/1982 - "Other disorders occur due to loss of affinity or capacity of the cellular active transport systems for specific solutes, such as amino acids (renal aminoacidurias), glucose (renal glycosurias) and bicarbonate (proximal renal tubular acidosis), or for all solutes (Fanconi syndrome). "
3.	D-Amino-Acid Oxidase (D-Amino Acid Dehydrogenase)IBA 12/15/1988 - "Lack of D-amino-acid oxidase activity causes a specific renal aminoaciduria in the mouse."
4.	Blood Proteins (Serum Proteins)IBA 12/15/1995 - "The characteristic manifestations of this nephrotoxicity include phosphaturia and hypophosphatemia, glycosuria, aminoaciduria, renal tubular acidosis, and urinary loss of low molecular weight serum proteins. "
5.	Amino AcidsFDA Link 02/01/1982 - "Other disorders occur due to loss of affinity or capacity of the cellular active transport systems for specific solutes, such as amino acids (renal aminoacidurias), glucose (renal glycosurias) and bicarbonate (proximal renal tubular acidosis), or for all solutes (Fanconi syndrome).
