Urinary Exosomal MiRNA-4534 as a Novel Diagnostic Biomarker for Diabetic Kidney Disease.

ABSTRACT: Urinary exosomal miRNAs can reflect the physiological and possibly pathophysiological state of cells lining the kidney and participate in the regulation of transcription and translation of proteins, which are playing an important role in the pathogenesis of diabetic kidney disease. In the present study, urine was collected from DM and DKD patients with a duration more than 10 years and urinary exosomal miRNA profiling was conducted in urinary exosomes obtained from three patients with type 2 diabetes (DM) and three patients with type 2 diabetic kidney disease (DKD) using Exiqon's microRNA arrays. In total, the expression of 14 miRNAs (miR-4491, miR-2117, miR-4507, miR-5088-5P, miR-1587, miR-219a-3p, miR-5091, miR-498, miR-4687-3p, miR-516b-5p, miR-4534, miR-1275, miR-5007-3p, and miR-4516)
