A patient with excessive industrial exposure to
silicon
and an elevated
silicon
content in his renal tissue was found to have a distinctive nephropathy, characterized pathologically by changes in the glomeruli and proximal tubules, and manifested clinically by albuminuria and hypertension. Proximal tubular function was intact. From a biochemical standpoint, this finding correlates with the demonstration in vitro that, in contrast to cadmium, a known cause of Fanconi syndrome,
silicon
does not inhibit renal cortical sodium-potassium-
adenosine triphosphatase
(Na-K-ATPase).
