Objective: The aim of this work is to identify putative hub genes for the advancement of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) and determine the fundamental mechanisms.
Methods: We employed multiple bioinformatics techniques to screen hub genes. Key hub gene expression levels in ccRCC were assessed.

Background: Although recent progress provides mechanistic insights into diabetic nephropathy (DN), effective treatments remain scarce. DN, characterized by proteinuria and a progressive decline in renal function, primarily arises from podocyte injury, which impairs the glomerular filtration barrier. Wogonoside, a bioactive compound from the traditional Chinese herb Scutellaria baicalensis, has not been explored for its role in DN.

Both type 1 and type 2 diabetes can lead to diabetic nephropathy (DN), a serious microvascular complication. Bromodomain 4 (BRD4), a member of the BET protein family, has been linked to various diseases, including cancer, inflammation, and fibrosis, and may be involved in the development of diabetes and its complications. In this study, we first explored the role and mechanism of BRD4 in DN.

6-PPDQ is a new type of environmental contaminant contained in tire rubber. No studies have been reported on the potential targets and mechanisms of action of 6-PPDQ on renal tissue damage. In the present study, we used CKD as an example to explore the potential targets and biological mechanisms of renal injury caused by 6-PPDQ using Network toxicology and animal experiments.

Background: International guidelines give greatly varying definitions of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) insufficiency and deficiency. Vitamin D testing is increasing despite 2016 UK guidance for adults advising routine vitamin D supplementation October-March and year-round for high risk groups. A service evaluation of vitamin D testing and biochemical osteomalacia in the North-East of Scotland (57-58°N) could inform definitions and testing guidance.
