Project description:There is a temporal window from the time diabetes is diagnosed to the appearance of overt kidney disease during which time the disease progresses quietly without detection. Currently, there is no way to detect early diabetic nephropathy (EDN). Here we performed an unbiased assessment of gene-expression analysis of postmortem human kidneys using microarrays to identify candidate genes that may contribute to EDN.

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of human PBMCs comparing healthy controls, patients with diabetic nephropathy and patients with ESRD. PBMCs were analyzed as they mediate inflammatory injury. Goal was to determine effects of increasing severity of diabetic nephropathy on global PBMC gene expression. Microarray analysis of PBMCs taken from patients with varying degrees of diabetic nephropathy.
Project description:In order to more accurately and objectively clarify the biological role of lncRNAs in diabetic nephropathy, we detected their expression profiles in renal tissues from patients with diabetic nephropathy.
Project description:We used scRNA-seq to confirm the rich cellular interactions between podocytes and glomerular parietal epithelial cells in early diabetic nephropathy and to construct a global view of early diabetic nephropathy.
Project description:Diabetic nephropathy and diabetic retinopathy are related. We used scRNA-seq and RNA-seq to analyze the cellular linkage between them.
