The role of H-Ras in the EGF mediated MAP-kinase signalling pathway that inhibits activity of ENaC reported in this study together with the development of cystic kidney in transgenic mice expressing H-Ras [71] suggest that H-Ras may have an important role in EGF-mediated cellular signalling in renal epithelia and promote cell proliferation, fluid retention and tubular enlargement seen in autosomal recessive PKD, a form of PKD that is represented primarily in the collecting duct. Here, EGF is linked to Renal cyst.
