Standard haemodialysis (HD) rapidly alters osmolality and composition of extracellular fluid and, thus, challenges cell volume constancy. Cell volume-sensitive genes upregulated by osmotic cell shrinkage include those encoding for taurine transporter TAUT as well as for serum- and glucocorticoid-inducible kinase SGK1.
