BMC Nephrol 2024; 25:261. [PMID: 39138396 PMCID: PMC11323638 DOI: 10.1186/s12882-024-03702-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/04/2024] [Accepted: 08/07/2024] [Indexed: 08/15/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Accurate detection of kidney damage is key to preventing renal failure, and identifying biomarkers is essential for this purpose. We aimed to assess the accuracy of miRNAs as diagnostic tools for chronic kidney disease (CKD). METHODS We thoroughly searched five databases (MEDLINE, Web of Science, Embase, Scopus, and CENTRAL) and performed a meta-analysis using R software. We assessed the overall diagnostic potential using the pooled area under the curve (pAUC), sensitivity (SEN), and specificity (SPE) values and the risk of bias by using the QUADAS-2 tool. The study protocol was registered on PROSPERO (CRD42021282785). RESULTS We analyzed data from 8351 CKD patients, 2989 healthy individuals, and 4331 people with chronic diseases. Among the single miRNAs, the pooled SEN was 0.82, and the SPE was 0.81 for diabetic nephropathy (DN) vs. diabetes mellitus (DM). The SEN and SPE were 0.91 and 0.89 for DN and healthy controls, respectively. miR-192 was the most frequently reported miRNA in DN patients, with a pAUC of 0.91 and SEN and SPE of 0.89 and 0.89, respectively, compared to those in healthy controls. The panel of miRNAs outperformed the single miRNAs (pAUC of 0.86 vs. 0.79, p < 0.05). The SEN and SPE of the panel miRNAs were 0.89 and 0.73, respectively, for DN vs. DM. In the lupus nephritis (LN) vs. systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) cohorts, the SEN and SPE were 0.84 and 0.81, respectively. Urinary miRNAs tended to be more effective than blood miRNAs (p = 0.06). CONCLUSION MiRNAs show promise as effective diagnostic markers for CKD. The detection of miRNAs in urine and the use of a panel of miRNAs allows more accurate diagnosis.

Abstract
A small subset of people with nephrotic syndrome (NS) have genetically driven disease. However, the disease mechanisms for the remaining majority are unknown. Epigenetic marks are reversible but stable regulators of gene expression with utility as biomarkers and therapeutic targets. We aimed to identify and assess all published human studies of epigenetic mechanisms in NS. PubMed (MEDLINE) and Embase were searched for original research articles examining any epigenetic mechanism in samples collected from people with steroid resistant NS, steroid sensitive NS, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis or minimal change disease. Study quality was assessed by using the Joanna Briggs Institute critical appraisal tools. Forty-nine studies met our inclusion criteria. The majority of these examined micro-RNAs (n = 35, 71%). Study quality was low, with only 23 deemed higher quality, and most of these included fewer than 100 patients and failed to validate findings in a second cohort. However, there were some promising concordant results between the studies; higher levels of serum miR-191 and miR-30c, and urinary miR-23b-3p and miR-30a-5p were observed in NS compared to controls. We have identified that the epigenome, particularly DNA methylation and histone modifications, has been understudied in NS. Large clinical studies, which utilise the latest high-throughput technologies and analytical pipelines, should focus on addressing this critical gap in the literature.

Abstract
MicroRNA-135 (miR-135) is a microRNA which is involved in the pathoetiology of several neoplastic and non-neoplastic conditions. Both tumor suppressor and oncogenic roles have been reported for this miRNA. Studies in prostate, renal, gallbladder and nasopharyngeal cancers as well as glioma have shown down-regulation of miR-135 in cancerous tissues compared with controls. These studies have also shown the impact of miR-135 down-regulation on enhancement of cell proliferation and aggressive behavior. Meanwhile, miR-135 has been shown to be up-regulated in bladder, oral, colorectal and liver cancers. Studies in breast, gastric, lung and pancreatic cancers as well as head and neck squamous cell carcinoma have reported dual roles for miR-135. Dysregulation of miR-135 has also been noted in various non-neoplastic conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease, atherosclerosis, depression, diabetes, Parkinson, pulmonary arterial hypertension, nephrotic syndrome, endometriosis, epilepsy and allergic conditions. In the current review, we summarize the role of miR-135 in the carcinogenesis as well as development of other disorders.

[PMID: 34237594 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2021.111891] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2021] [Revised: 06/06/2021] [Accepted: 06/28/2021] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Microparticles are a general term for different types of cell plasma membrane-originated vesicles that are released into the extracellular environment. The paracrine action of these nano-sized vesicles is crucial for intercellular communications through the transfer of diverse lipids, cytosolic proteins, RNA as well as microRNAs. The progression of different diseases influences the composition, occurrence, and functions of these cell-derived particles. Podocyte injury has been shown to have an important role in the pathophysiology of many glomerular diseases including IgA nephropathy (IgAN). This review would focus on the possible potential of podocyte-derived microparticles detected in urine to be used as a diagnostic tool in IgAN.
