Brief description Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is the most common fatal inherited kidney disease in the world. Kidney failure is the most serious and life-threatening complication of PKD, but currently there is no treatment to prevent this problem. The aim of this project is to determine whether vitamin D3 can prevent kidney failure and hypertension due to PKD. The results of this project could lead to simple and cost-effective treatments to prevent kidney failure in patients suffering from PKD.
