Background: Nephrotic syndrome is an enormous public healthy threaten, which causes a variety of complications and secondary disease; however, the molecular mechanism of nephrotic syndrome remains unclear.
Methods: In our study, RNA-seq were used to test the transcription level of patients with nephrotic syndrome, in order to investigate the interaction of circRNA-miRNA-mRNA in nephrotic syndrome patients.
Results: Consistent with our hypothesis, miRNAs were confirmed to be associated with nephrotic syndrome, majority of their targeting circRNAs downregulated in nephrotic syndrome patients and at the same time, the KEGG pathway analysis found that target genes of the circRNAs bonding miRNAs was highly correlated with the occurrence of kidney diseases.
Conclusion: Thus, we can draw a conclusion that downregulated circRNAs cause miRNA expressing aberrant and then affect the expression level of mRNA, finally leading to the generation of nephrotic syndrome.

Comparative Efficacy of Nonsteroid Immunosuppressive Medications in Childhood Nephrotic Syndrome.
JAMA Pediatr
January 2025
Division of Nephrology, The Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
Importance: Cyclophosphamide and calcineurin inhibitors are the most used nonsteroid immunosuppressive medications globally for children with various chronic inflammatory conditions. Their comparative effectiveness remains uncertain, leading to worldwide practice variation. Nephrotic syndrome is the most common kidney disease managed by pediatricians globally and suboptimal treatment is associated with high morbidity.

Objectives: To determine the effectiveness of Levamisole (Leva) in maintaining short-term and long-term remission in early steroid responders (ESRs) and late steroid responders (LSRs).
Methods: This retrospective study on 106 cohorts, aged 2-14 years with frequent-relapsing (FR) and steroid-dependent nephrotic syndrome (SDNS) who received Leva over 10-years (2012-2023), was carried out at tertiary care centre, Karachi from January-August 2023. Patients were categorized based on steroid response during first episode of NS as ESRs if complete remission (CR) was achieved within two weeks of daily steroid and LSRs if CR achieved between two-four weeks.
Introduction Nephrotic syndrome, an unusual clinical presentation of IgA nephropathy (IgAN), occurs only in a few cases. The data regarding its clinical characteristics and treatment outcomes are lacking. Material and methods In this retrospective analysis, we reviewed kidney biopsies conducted between January 2007 and December 2018.

Primary amyloidosis (AL type) is a systemic disease that can lead to structural and functional damage to organs and tissues such as the kidney, heart and liver with non-specific symptoms. Most of the affected patients develop thyroid infiltration and thus diffuse enlargement of the thyroid gland, while cases leading to hypothyroidism are exceedingly rare. Some researchers have analyzed thyroid function in newly diagnosed patients with AL amyloidosis, and found that the incidence of overt hypothyroidism is only 7%.

: Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease is an inherited peripheral neuropathy primarily involving motor and sensory neurons. Mutations in INF2, an actin assembly factor, cause two diseases: peripheral neuropathy CMT-DIE (MIM614455) and/or focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS). These two phenotypes arise from the progressive degeneration affecting podocytes and Schwann cells.
