Skip Navigation Michigan.gov Home DNR Home Links ... Fish Identification Bacterial Kidney Disease (BKD) A disease of trout and salmon caused by the bacterium Renibacterium salmoninarum . The disease is systemic but derives its name from off-white bacterial lesions in the kidney. In later stages many organs may become affected and the body cavity may become filled with fluid. This disease has been thought to be responsible for mortalities of chinook and coho salmon in Lake Michigan over the past decade that led to dramatic declines in those fisheries. In 1993, Fisheries Division began screening all salmonid adults and eggs during spawning operations to detect the presence of BKD. All fish and eggs that test positive are destroyed. The bacterium that causes BKD is endemic in Michigan lakes so total eradication is not probable. The screening process during spawning is the best available control measure to reduce the incidence of the disease by using fish that are less susceptible to it. This process uses the natural selection process to reduce the impact of the disease on our fisheries.

For More Information What is diarrhea? Diarrhealoose, watery stools occurring more than three times in one dayis a common problem that usually lasts a day or two and goes away on its own without any special treatment. However, prolonged diarrhea can be a sign of other problems. People with diarrhea may pass more than a quart of stool a day. Diarrhea can cause dehydration, which means the body lacks enough fluid to function properly. Dehydration is particularly dangerous in children and the elderly, and it must be treated promptly to avoid serious health problems. (See " What is dehydration? People of all ages can get diarrhea. The average adult has a bout of diarrhea about four times a year. Top What causes diarrhea? Diarrhea may be caused by a temporary problem, like an infection, or a chronic problem, like an intestinal disease. A few of the more common causes of diarrhea are Bacterial infections . Several types of bacteria, consumed through contaminated food or water, can cause diarrhea. Common culprits include

If you are not automatically transported to the new page after 15 seconds, click on this link Genome View on chromosome 16 Databases PubMed the literature LocusLink collection of gene-related information OMIM catalog of human genes and disorders Information Fact sheet from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, NIH ADULT POLYCYSTIC kidney disease (APKD) is characterized by large cysts in one or both kidneys and a gradual loss of normal kidney tissue which can lead to chronic renal failure. The role of the kidneys in the body is to filter the blood, excreting the end-products of metabolism in the form of urine and regulating the concentrations of hydrogen, sodium, potassium, phosphate and other ions in the extracellular fluid. In 1994 the European Polycystic Kidney Disease Consortium isolated a gene from chromosome 16 that was disrupted in a family with APCD. The protein encoded by the PKD1 gene is an integral membrane protein involved in cell-cell interactions and cell-matrix interactions. The role of PKD1 in the normal cell may be linked to microtubule-mediated functions, such as the placement of Na(+), K(+)-ATPase ion pumps in the membrane. Programmed cell death, or apoptosis, may also be invoked in APKD. Further clarification of the pathogenesis of the disease await further research. The so-called 'cpk mouse' is a well known model for the human disease. Studying the molecular basis of the disease in the mouse is expected to provide a better understanding of the human disease, and is hoped to lead to more effective therapies.

Even though very few people have heard of it, Polycystic Kidney Disease affects 600,000 people in the U.S. alone, and 12.5 million world wide. There are more people with PKD than cystic fibrosis, muscular dystrophy, hemophilia, Downs syndrome and sickle cell anemia combined. Many PKD patients find it useful to have access to the same information as their doctors because many doctors are unfortunately pretty unfamiliar with the disease. I will try to bring you as much information and sources about the disease as possible. If you have any questions about PKD for any reason, or if you know of anyone who has the disease and is looking for more information or for support groups I encourage you to contact any of the sources I have listed here, or to ask me a question . I would also appreciate an email if you have any pertinent information I should add to this page. PKD has been a profound part of my life so far, and will only continue to become more so. Likewise, the information on this page is just the beginning, and will continue to grow as time and research allows. If there is just one person out there that this page might help, I will be grateful for having the opportunity to make a difference.

Feline Kidney Disease by Dr. Derek Duval, VMD I received a number of letters requesting information about kidney disease in cats and how diet may be important in its cause and treatment. Many cats will develop renal (kidney) insufficiency as they age. With age the kidneys will loose nephrons (the functional unit of the kidney) and renal failure will result. The kidney (like the liver) has a large built in reserve capacity. By the time we see signs are renal insufficiency 60-75% of the renal mass is lost. The first signs are usually loss of the ability to concentrate the urine which results in increased drinking and urinating. With more damage the toxins that are normally filtered by the kidney begin to build up and can cause depression, decreased appetite, a foul odor to the breath, oral ulceration, and vomiting. In the end stage of renal failure, a low body temperature, seizures, and severe depression and coma can result. Diagnosis: In the urine we look for signs of infection, ability to concentrate, and loss of protein. When cats with healthy kidneys become dehydrated the urine will become concentrated. Cats with renal insufficiency cannot concentrate their urine despite being dehydrated. Therefore, a urine sample is very important to the evaluation of renal disease. Other modes of evaluating the kidneys include radiography (x-rays), ultrasound examination, and palpation. The kidneys in cats with chronic renal insufficiency are often shrunken and irregular.
