The effect of serum from children with nephrotic syndrome on transcriptome of human immortalized podocytes cultured in vitro


ABSTRACT: Nephrotic syndrome (NS) is an unfavorable disease with heterogeneous causes and variable prognosis. One of the clinically crucial prognostic feature is the response to initial glucocorticoid treatment. Whereas in some children with steroid-sensitive nephrotic syndrome (SSNS) the treatment may induce long-term remission of the disease, steroid-resistant cases (SRNS) are at risk of renal failure requiring renal replacement therapy. The aim of this project was to explore whether sera from children with the two main clinically defined types of NS induce changes in transcriptome of in-vitro cultures of immortalized human podocytes. After 3 days of culture, total RNA was isolated and then library from polyadenylated RNA was prepared and RNA sequencing was performed. Log2 (fold-changes) were calculated to describe differential gene expression. Within the Reactome online tool, Camera methodology was implemented to identify functionally linked gene groups (pathways) that could distinguish the two patient groups. Significant transcriptome differences were found between samples from children with SSNS and SRNS. This may help to reveal the molecular mechanisms of the disease and open up for an effective individualized treatment.
