What it is
RNA-seq (gene expression)Gene activity measured by sequencing. The summary does not mention single-cell work, so this is most likely bulk: one average per sample, the usual starting point for comparing groups.

Glomerular transcriptomics predicts long term outcome and identifies therapeutic strategies for patients with assumed benign IgA nephropathyKidney international · 2024
Summary (written by the submitters)
Background: In a previous study of patients with assumed benign IgA nephropathy (IgAN), we have shown that 18.6% develop a progressive clinical course, which was not predicted by any known clinical nor histopathological parameters (Knoop 2017). We aim to differentiate between future progressors and non-progressors with assumed benign IgAN by using glomerular transcriptomics from diagnostic kidney biopsies and to investigate whether this can identify drugs to be used in those patients.

Methods: We included adult progressors (n=15) and patients with clinical remission (non-progressors, n=21) from our previously reported IgAN cohort. Glomerular cross-sections were obtained through laser-capture microdissection from 10µm archival kidney biopsy sections for mRNA sequencing, using the SMARTer Stranded Total RNA-Seq kit – Pico Input Mammalian (Clontech Laboratories, California, USA). Key results were validated in external cohorts and on the protein level with immunohistochemistry in the discovery cohort and an internal validation cohort. We also compared our transcriptomic findings with an external genome-wide association study (GWAS) dataset (Kiryluk 2021). Results: For the statistical analyses, we studied 8 progressors and 9 non-progressors. Based on the 1,240 differentially expressed glomerular genes from the initial kidney biopsies, we were able to identify future IgAN progressors and non-progressors using a two-component classifier. The classifier predicted disease progression with 88% accuracy, 75% sensitivity and 100% specificity (AUC=0.875), more accurate than the recommended International IgAN Prediction Tool in this specific patient cohort. Among our differentially expressed genes, 10 were also found in the GWAS dataset (Kiryluk 2021). We identified 45 drug targets in the DrugBank database, including angiotensinogen, a target of sparsentan, currently investigated as therapy in IgAN (NCT03762850 and NCT04663204). The findings on upregulation of angiotensinogen, which was independent of blood pressure, were validated in an internal IgAN validation cohort. Interestingly, complement activation did not play a major role in our data. Our work suggests that LXR, FXR and macrophage activation pathways could be critically involved in the inhibition of the progression of low-risk ccRCC. Furthermore, a 10-component classifier could support an early identification of apparently low-risk ccRCC patients.

Download · which file do I need?

Direct links to NCBI and ENA, no account and no request form. Pick by what you want to do: take the small processed table to look, the supplementary files to re-analyse, or the original raw data to start over.

1 · Just have a look

Processed table

The series matrix: one table of values per sample as the submitters processed it. The smallest download, and it opens in Excel or R. Start here to see what the data look like.

2 · Re-analyse it

Supplementary files

The count tables and other files the authors uploaded. Take only the samples you need, or the whole study as GSE210098_RAW.tar (it can run to tens of gigabytes).

3 · Start from the raw reads

Raw sequencing reads

The original FASTQ files, straight from the sequencer, held at ENA. Large, and you align them yourself, so only choose this if you need to re-process the study from scratch.

What the files usually look like: For RNA-seq the counts are usually a table among the supplementary files (look for 'counts', 'expression', 'FPKM' or 'TPM' in the file name). The series matrix of a sequencing study is sometimes nearly empty.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA863658. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
9 × NP vs 8 × P

Supports a between-group comparison across 17 samples.

How we read this: 2 replicated groups read from 17 sample titles; they account for 17 of them. These groups are guessed from the sample names, not taken from the paper, so check them against the sample list below before relying on them.
