AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
Purpose: Since human urine is the most readily available biofluid whose proteome changes in response to disease, it is a logical sample for identifying protein biomarkers for kidney diseases.
Experimental Design: Potential biomarkers were identified by using a multiproteomics workflow to compare urine proteomes of kidney transplant patients with immediate and delayed graft function. Differentially expressed proteins were identified, and corresponding stable isotope labeled internal peptide standards were synthesized for scheduled MRM.
Results: The Targeted Urine Proteome Assay (TUPA) was then developed by identifying those peptides for which there were at least two transitions for which interference in a urine matrix across 156 MRM runs was <30%. This resulted in an assay that monitors 224 peptides from 167 quantifiable proteins.
Conclusions And Clinical Relevance: TUPA opens the way for using a robust mass spectrometric technology, MRM, for quantifying and validating biomarkers from among 167 urinary proteins. This approach, while developed using differentially expressed urinary proteins from patients with delayed versus immediate graft function after kidney transplant, can be expanded to include differentially expressed urinary proteins in multiple kidney diseases. Thus, TUPA could provide a single assay to help diagnose, prognose, and manage many kidney diseases.

Objective: Glucose metabolism is the main way in which cells obtain energy during exercise and plays an important role in exercise. The purpose of this study was to explore the changes in the expression of glucose metabolism-related proteins in urine after running, and finally applied to the monitoring of running training.
Methods: Urine samples were collected before and after running, and urine proteomics information was collected to explore the expression of proteins in the urine using LC-MS/MS in DDA mode and DIA mode.

Biological fluids are proteinaceous liquids or suspensions released through different body orifices or through penetration of the skin. These fluids are the result of multiple tissues and cell types and contain extensive, highly complex, and dynamic protein populations that reflect both the transcriptional program of the originating cells and a record of the individual's health status. Body fluids are readily accessible to clinicians and researchers, and as such proteomic analyses are an important component of clinical studies, fertility studies, oral health studies, and forensic investigations.

Introduction: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is notably prevalent after cardiac surgery for patients with active infective endocarditis. This study aims to create a machine learning model to predict AKI in this high-risk group, improving upon existing models by focusing specifically on endocarditis-related surgeries.
Methods: We analyzed medical records from 527 patients who underwent cardiac surgery for active infective endocarditis from January 2012 to December 2023.

Background: Idiopathic Nephrotic Syndrome (INS) is a common kidney disease in children, and the main clinical manifestations are hypoproteinaemia, proteinuria, hyperlipidaemia, and oedema. Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) are involved in tissue repair, protection against fibrosis, and immune modulation but have rarely been studied in INS.
Objective: This study aimed to explore the therapeutic potential of stem cells derived from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHEDs) in INS using an adriamycin-induced nephropathy (AN) rat model.
