背景(Background)
This gene encodes a renal thiazide-sensitive sodium-chloride cotransporter that is important for electrolyte homeostasis. This cotransporter mediates sodium and chloride reabsorption in the distal convoluted tubule. Mutations in this gene cause Gitelman syndrome, a disease similar to Bartter's syndrome, that is characterized by hypokalemic alkalosis combined with hypomagnesemia, low urinary calcium, and increased renin activity associated with normal blood pressure. This cotransporter is the target for thiazide diuretics that are used for treating high blood pressure. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

功能
disease:Defects in SLC12A3 are the cause of Gitelman syndrome (GS) [MIM:263800]. GS is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by hypokalemic alkalosis in combination with hypomagnesemia, low urinary calcium, and increased renin activity associated with normal blood pressure. Patients are often asymptomatic or present transient periods of muscular weakness and tetany, usually accompanied by abdominal pain, vomiting and fever. The phenotype is highly heterogeneous in terms of age at onset and severity. Cardinal features such as hypocalciuria and hypomagnesemia might also change during the life cycle of a given patient. GS has overlapping features with Bartter syndrome.,function:Electrically silent transporter system. Mediates sodium and chloride reabsorption.,similarity:Belongs to the SLC12A transporter family.,tissue specificity:Predominant in kidney.,

组织表达
Predominantly expressed in the kidney (at protein level) (PubMed:29993276, PubMed:8812482). Localizes to the distal convoluted tubules (at protein level)(PubMed:29993276). Not detected in normal aorta, but abundantly expressed in fatty streaks and advanced atherosclerotic lesions (at protein level) (PubMed:26099046).
