Lysinuric protein intolerance (LPI) is a rare metabolic disorder with reduced renal and intestinal reabsorption of ornithine, lysine, and arginine. It is due to variants in SLC7A7, the gene encoding y+L amino acid transporter 1 (y+LAT1), which lead to urea cycle defects with protein intolerance. Chronic kidney disease in lysinuric protein intolerance is common and can progress to kidney failure and initiation of kidney replacement therapy. Kidney transplantation could in theory improve urine levels and, consequently, plasma levels of these amino acids and therefore improve clinical symptoms, as well as protein intolerance, in patients with lysinuric protein intolerance.
