Project description:Transcriptome comparison of glomeruli from kidneys with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) and glomeruli from the unaffected portion of tumor nephrectomies. High-density Affymetrix Human Transcriptome Arrays (HTA) 2.0 were used for the gene expression analysis.
Project description:Transcriptome comparison of tubulointerstitial tissues from kidneys with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) and tubulointerstitial tissues from the unaffected portion of surgical nephrectomies. High-density Affymetrix Human Transcriptome Arrays (HTA) 2.0 were used for the gene expression analysis.

Project description:<p>Samples were chosen for sequencing from a set of probands from pedigrees with apparently inherited forms of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS). Several genes have been identified which when mutated cause FSGS under both recessive and dominant inheritance patterns. These known genes are estimated to explain less than 50% of inherited FSGS. We chose samples from individuals in which previous analyses of known disease genes failed to identify likely disease-causing mutations.</p>
Project description:To search for biomarkers to differentiate Adult-Onset Steroid Sensitive focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) and minimal change disease (MCD). Compared the profiles of glomerular transcriptomes between patients with FSGS and patients with MCD using microarray analysis. This dataset is part of the TransQST collection.
