Urinary proteomics investigations into contrast-induced acute kidney injury.
Some patients have a decline in renal function after contrast medium injection, and this phenomenon is called contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI); a small number of people even suffer severe renal failure.

| Sumario: | Some patients have a decline in renal function after contrast medium injection, and this phenomenon is called contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI); a small number of people even suffer severe renal failure. To date, the mechanism of CI-AKI remains unclear. We aimed to identify novel potential biomarkers in the urine of patients with CI-AKI through LC-MS/MS and bioinformatics analysis. We enrolled patients who underwent coronary angiography (contrast agent: iohexol). The CI-AKI group included 4 cases, and the non-CI-AKI group included 20 cases. We mixed the 4 CI-AKI samples and 20 non-CI-AKI samples. Then, a 0.6 ml urine sample was used for proteome analysis with LC-MS/MS approach. Metascape, ExPASy, and the Human Protein Atlas were utilized for bioinformatics analysis. We obtained 724 and 830 urine proteins from the CI-AKI and non-CI-AKI groups, respectively. The distribution of the pI values and molecular weights (MWs) of postoperative urine proteins showed no significant difference between the CI-AKI group and the non-CI-AKI group. A total of 99differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were detected, among which 18 proteins were detected only in tubule cells, and 19 proteins were detected in both tubule cells and glomeruli. With GO analysis, the GEPs were mainly associated with immune response and inflammation. Although biomarkers cannot be asserted from this single pilot study, our results may help advance the understanding of the mechanisms of CI-AKI and identify potential novel biomarkers for further investigation. |
