The Kidney Development Database was created to collect in one place the data from a large number of developmental studies that have a bearing on the study of kidney development. With its oldest parts dating back to 1993/4, it is, as far as we know, the earliest computer database in the field of vertebrate organogenesis. Data are displayed in tables, arranged according to a standard scheme of kidney development explained in the key. Many of the entries are derived from low-power in situs or published text-only descriptions, and should therefore be interpreted with mild caution.

The Cancer Genomics of the Kidney (CAGEKID) consortium brings together expertise in clinical care and epidemiology with genomic expertise. This consortium is an effort of the larger International Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC), which has the goal of obtaining a comprehensive description of genomic, transcriptomic and epigenomic changes in 50 different tumour types and/or subtypes with the aim of elucidating the genomic changes present in the many forms of cancers that contribute to the burden of disease throughout the world.

A five-year prospective cohort study following 240 patients who have autosomal-dominant polycystic kidney disease (PKD) to determine whether changes in anatomic characteristics of their kidneys as measured by magnetic resonance imaging will be useful in providing surrogate measures for disease progression. CRISP's overall goal is to develop methods that would facilitate shortening the observation period necessary to determine efficacy of treatment interventions in PKD patients. Specific goals of this study are to: * Quantify cyst growth and ascertain severity of renal parenchymal involvement by sequential measurement of total kidney volume and the ratio of intact parenchyma to renal parenchyma occupied by cysts over time * Establish useful clinical correlations of imaging data with other markers of disease progression * Identify and test other potential markers or indices of disease progression, for example, assessment of loss of heterozygosity of renal cells shed in the urine, or other markers, in cohorts of patients with PKD * Gain information about the cost-effectiveness, patient acceptability, and advantages and disadvantages of different imaging techniques used serially in patients with PKD. Some experience has been gained in establishing that repeat imaging of the same PKD patient, using these techniques, yields reproducible estimates of kidney size and the proportion of renal parenchyma occupied by cysts. MRI may also have the advantage of permitting simultaneous estimation of GFR. Ultrasound has the advantage of being more cost-effective and perhaps more acceptable to patients for repetitive studies, but the measurements may be less accurate and reproducible. Nonetheless, there is very limited experience in applying these techniques to follow progression of the renal disease. Development of improved, reproducible imaging methods that assess cyst growth and provide markers of disease progression could markedly improve the feasibility of clinical trials. Participating clinical centers are Emory University, the Mayo Clinic, University of Kansas, and the University of Alabama at Birmingham. The data coordinating and imaging analysis center is at Washington University. (PI has since moved to University of Pittsburgh) The study found that kidney enlargement resulting from the expansion of cysts is continuous, quantifiable, and associated with the decline of renal function. Cystic expansion occurs at a consistent rate per individual, although it is heterogeneous in the population, and that larger kidneys are associated with more rapid decrease in renal function. These anatomic characteristics of patient kidneys may provide useful surrogate measures for disease progression, and hence enhance the development of targeted therapies for autosomal dominant PKD. CRISP III is a five-year prospective cohort study to follow ~170 remaining autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) patients who were part of the original CRISP cohort study. CRISP III will verify and extend the preliminary observations of CRISP to determine the extent to which quantitative (kidney volume and blood flow, and hepatic and kidney cyst volume) or qualitative (cyst distribution and character) structural parameters predict renal insufficiency and develop and test new metrics to quantify and monitor disease progression. Urine metabolites and the genome will be correlated with the progression of disease to look for new, predictive disease biomarkers. This information from CRISP III will help determine if the kidney enlargement, blood flow, cyst distribution, or urine metabolites can function as an informative surrogate measure for disease progression.
