Objective Few researches have been reported on the gene methylation in children with steroid-sensitive nephrot-ic syndrome (SSNS) or steroid-dependent nephrotic syndrome (SDNS).This study aimed to investigate the possible pathogenesis and therapeutic target of SSNS and SDNS by screening differentially methylated genes ( DMGs) and bioinformatic analysis using DNA meth-ylation microarray. Methods This study included 3 hospitalized children with SSNS and another 4 with SDNS, all treated with full dose of prednisone ( 2 mg per kilogram of the body weight per day or 60 mg per m2 per day).Negative urine protein was achieved within 4 weeks in the former group , while the latter , though sensitive to hor-monal therapy , relapsed within 2 weeks after drug withdrawal or dose reduction .DNA was extracted from the peripheral blood of the patients in both groups for screening DMGs and bioinformatic analysis using DNA methylation microarray . Results Compared with the patients with SSNS, 318 DMGs were found in the SDNS group , among which 193 were hypermethylated and the other 125 hypomethylated .These abnormal genes were mainly located in the open reading frame of DNA and the CpG island region .DMGs were mainly involved in Rho guanyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity , nucleoside-triphosphatase regulator activity , GTPase activator activity , and other molecular functions .The biological processes were chiefly associ-ated with the regulation of the generation of precursor metabolites and energy , antigen processing and presentation , regulation of Rho and Ras protein signal transduction , lamellipodium assembly , regeneration , and other biological processes .The cell composition was mainly related to MHC protein complexes , perichromatin fibrils , and the MHC class I protein complex .Analysis of the KEGG signaling pathway showed that DMGs participated in 9 signaling pathways , involving type I diabetes , starch and sucrose metabolism , allograft re-jection, autoimmune thyroid disease , and others. Conclusion The heterogeneity of methylation is widespread in children with SDNS and may be one of the causes of steroid dependence , which has provided a basis for searching for potential therapeutic targets .

This study reported the analysis of plasma phospholipid metabolism of the rats and the pathological biomarkers between the type 2 diabetes model control group (MC) and the normal control group (NC). SD rats were randomly divided into 2 groups: NC and MC. To investigate state of plasma metabolite profiling in normal body, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) model group using UPLC-Q-TOF/MS which was used as analysis tool in this research. The compounds were identified by UPLC-Q-TOF/MS based on MS/MS fragment ions information, element composition in MassLynx 4.1 and the Lipid Maps database. The sign of two groups of samples in specific markers for screening was through a software package in R software (BioMark software). The results show that the pathological markers were mainly phosphatidylcholine (PC) and triglycerides (TG); the 2-acyl PC in the MC group was less more obviously than that in the NC group; high carbon number and high degree of unsaturation of the TG was reduced under the condition of type 2 diabetes. In the state of type 2 diabetes, metabolic changes occurred in rat plasma phospholipids obviously, which had a close relationship with the occurrence and development of T2DM.
