Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Urinary exosome was isolated from either CKD Gstage4 or ADPKD patients upon consent, and the identified microRNA was compared between these 2 groups. MicroRNAs specific for Wnt/b-catenin/GSK-3, regulating Oncogenes, associated with renal cell carcinoma, tumor suppressor gene, and inhibitory for inflammation were more expressed in ADPKD. Specific microRNAs identified from urinary exosome of ADPKD patients can be either prognostic or predictive for the clinical course of ADPKD.
