Expression data from uremic patients (end stage renal failure) and 20 healthy controls


ABSTRACT: Renal failure is characterized by important biological changes resulting in profound pleomorphic physiological effects termed “uremia”, whose molecular causation is not well understood. The data was used to study gene expression changes in uremia using whole genome microarray analysis of peripheral blood from subjects with end-stage renal failure (n=63) and healthy controls (n=20) to obtain insight into the molecular and biological causation of this syndrome. The study was conducted at the University of British Columbia and approved by the human ethics research board. A 3:1 case-control design was employed to compare gene expression in patients with chronic renal failure and healthy controls. Patients with stage 5 renal disease aged 18 to 75 years, who were clinically stable awaiting renal transplantation, were not receiving immunosuppressive medications, and who provided written informed consent were enrolled into the study. Patients were treated according to Canadian Guidelines for Chronic Kidney Disease (13). Normal controls of comparable age and gender to the patients who were screened to ensure freedom from known illness and medical therapy served as comparators.

<h4>Background</h4>End-stage renal failure is associated with profound changes in physiology and health, but the molecular causation of these pleomorphic effects termed "uremia" is poorly understood. The genomic changes of uremia were explored in a whole genome microarray case-control comparison of 95 subjects with end-stage renal failure (n = 75) or healthy controls (n = 20).<h4>Methods</h4>RNA was separated from blood drawn in PAXgene tubes and gene expression analyzed using Affymetrix Human G  ...[more]
