Abstract
Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is a frequent glomerular disease, and is the common cause of nephrotic syndrome. However, there is no validated diagnostic blood biomarker for FSGS. Here, we performed a real-time PCR-based high-throughput miRNA profiling to identify the plasma signature for FSGS. We found four miRNAs (miR-17, miR-451, miR-106a, and miR-19b) were significantly downregulated in the plasma of FSGS patients (n = 97) compared with healthy controls (n = 124) in the training, validation, and blinded-test phases. The miRNA panel produced an AUC value of 0.82, and was associated with FSGS severity and histologic classification. A three-miRNA panel, including miR-17, miR-451, and miR-106a was related to FSGS remission. Furthermore, the downregulation of plasma-miRNA signature was not detected in disease controls (n = 119) such as IgA nephropathy (IgAN), mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis (MSPGN), and membranous nephropathy (MN), and the miRNA panel discriminated between FSGS and disease controls. Pathway analysis showed that the four-miRNA panel may cooperatively regulate the pathways involved in the development of FSGS, such as apoptosis. We identified that phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN), Bcl-2-l...Continue Reading
