The long noncoding RNA LOC105374325 causes podocyte injury in individuals with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis

Abstract excerpt

Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is a common kidney disease that results in nephrotic syndrome. FSGS arises from dysfunction and apoptosis of podocytes in the glomerulus of the kidney, leading to podocytopathy. The molecular mechanisms underlying podocyte apoptosis remain incompletely understood. Using an array of gene expression profiling, PCR, and in situ hybridization assay, we found here that the...
