Urinary- and Plasma-Derived Exosomes Reveal a Distinct MicroRNA Signature Associated With Albuminuria in Hypertension
25 Jan 2021
Abstract excerpt
Urinary albumin excretion (UAE) is a marker of cardiovascular risk and renal damage in hypertension. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) packaged into exosomes function as paracrine effectors in cell communication and the kidney is not exempt. This study aimed to state an exosomal miRNA profile/signature associated to hypertension with increased UAE and the impact of profibrotic TGF-β1 (transforming growth factor β1) on exosomes...
