The use of targeted next-generation sequencing to determine the regulatory function of TGF-ß1 in kidney fibrosis [miRNA-seq]
Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-ß1) plays an important regulatory role in the progression of chronic kidney failure. Further, damage to kidney glomerular mesangial cells is central to the progression of diabetic nephropathy. The aim of this study was to explore the genetic associations between mRNA, microRNA, and epigenetics in mesangial cells in response to TGF-ß1. The regulatory effects of TGF-ß1 on mesangial cells were investigated at different molecular levels by treating mesangial cells with TGF-ß1 for 3 days followed by genome-wide miRNA, RNA, MeDIP-seq, and H3K27Me3 expression profiling using next-generation sequencing (NGS). Each sample was designed with 3 repeat samples. Overall design: Whole genome MeDIP-seq, miRNA, H3K27me3 and RNA-seq of mouse. This dataset includes the miRNA-seq data.
