Identification of common and specific fibrosis-related genes in three common chronic kidney diseases by Zhangning Fu, Xiaodong Geng, Chao Liu, Wanjun Shen, Zheyi Dong, Guannan Sun, Guangyan Cai, Xiangmei Chen, Quan Hong

“…Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was performed to validate the expression of the selected genes.Results Protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type C (PTPRC), intercellular cell adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM1), vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM1), interleukin 10 receptor alpha (IL10RA) and CC chemokine receptor 2 (CCR2) were identified as the potential common genes for kidney fibrosis in different types of CKD, while peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARA), lactate oxidase (LOX), secreted phosphoprotein 1 (SPP1) were identified as the specific fibrosis-associated genes for DN, IgAN and MN respectively. qRT-PCR demonstrated that the expression levels of these selected genes were consistent with the NanoString analysis.Conclusions There were both commonalities and differences in the mechanisms of fibrosis in different types of CKD, the commonalities might be used as the common therapeutic targets for kidney fibrosis in CKD, while the differences might be used as the diagnostic markers for DN, IgAN and MN respectively. …”
