Research Abstract |
This study clarified that the renal parenchymal cells were dropped into urine in renal pathological conditions. The quantitative and qualitative urinary cellular patterns correlated with the deteriorations of renal pathology and function in renal disease models and companion animals. Importantly, these urinary cells could be detected by molecular biological methods targeting mRNA and microRNA in urine. These data indicated the possibility that the urinary tests based on the detections of urinary cells, entitled "Urinary Molecular Profiling" in the present study, could be noninvasive diagnosis methods for renal disease.
