library_construction_protocol: Kidney biopsy specimens were left in RNAlater (Sigma-Aldrich) overnight at 4°C before removal and storage at -80°C until RNA extraction. Specimens were chemically and physically lysed by using 2-Mercaptoethanol (Sigma-Aldrich) and TissueLyser II (Qiagen, Germany), follow by RNA extraction using AllPrep DNA/RNA/microRNA and MiniElute clean- up kits (Qiagen, Germany). All RNA samples were frozen and stored at -80°C and then sent in bulk to the Australian Genome Research Facility (AGRF, Melbourne, Australia). Sample QC and library preparation were performed in-house, and the resultant libraries sequenced using the NovaSeq 6000 platform (Illumina)
