Abstract

Kidney stones (KS) are common, heritable, and associated with mineral metabolism abnormalities. We used Mendelian randomization and colocalization to identify variants predicted to increase KS risk via increased serum calcium or decreased serum phosphate (odds ratios for genomic regions=4.30-13.83 per 1 standard deviation alteration) that account for 11-19% of KS due to reduced calcium-sensing receptor (CaSR)-signal transduction, increased urinary phosphate excretion, and impaired 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D inactivation via diacylglycerol kinase delta ( DGKD ), solute carrier family 34 member 1 ( SLC34A1 ), and cytochrome P450 family 24 subfamily A member 1 ( CYP24A1 ), respectively. In silico analyses revealed that targeting CASR , DGKD , or CYP24A1 to decrease serum calcium, or SLC34A1 to increase serum phosphate may reduce KS risk, and in vitro studies demonstrated that positive CaSR-allosteric modulation ameliorates CaSR-signal transduction impaired by reduced DGKδ expression or KS-associated DGKD missense variants. These studies suggest that genotyping individuals with KS may facilitate personalized risk stratification and pharmacomodulation.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
