Identification of Genes Associated with Smad3-dependent Renal Injury by RNA-seq-based Transcriptome Analysis
9 Dec 2015
Abstract excerpt
Transforming growth factor-β/Smad3 signaling plays a critical role in the process of chronic kidney disease (CKD), but targeting Smad3 systematically may cause autoimmune disease by impairing immunity. In this study, we used whole-transcriptome RNA-sequencing to identify the differential gene expression profile, gene ontology, pathways, and alternative splicing related to TGF-β/Smad3 in CKD. To explore common...
