XORTX Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ: XRTX) announced the acceptance of an abstract for presentation at the American Society of Nephrology's Kidney Week 2024. The abstract, titled 'Xanthine oxidase in rats, mice and humans with polycystic kidney disease', focuses on the role of xanthine oxidase (XO) in polycystic kidney disease (PKD). The study, conducted at the University of Colorado and sponsored by XORTX, aimed to understand serum xanthine oxidase activity (XOa) in PKD and its relation to total kidney volume and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) decline.
The research investigated XO activity in PCK1 rats, PKD1RC/RC mice, and 34 patients from the HALT-PKD Clinical study. Results provide insights into how aberrant purine metabolism in PKD tissue may contribute to circulating uric acid levels, kidney expansion rate, and GFR decline. This study builds on previous findings suggesting XO overexpression in PKD kidney tissue. XORTX plans to provide a detailed update on the study results in early November.
