Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a renal neoplastic disorder characterized by the formation of large fluid-filled cysts that develop from kidney tubules through abnormal cell proliferation and cyst-filling fluid secretion driven by cAMP-dependent Cl − secretion. This study shows that the lonidamine derivative H2-GMZ inhibits Cl − secretion, cell proliferation, and cyst growth, suggesting that it might have therapeutic value for the treatment of ADPKD.
