Research Results from Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health Update Knowledge of Disease Progression (Integrated Proteomic and Metabolomic Modules associated with Risk of Kidney Disease Progression).

A recent research study conducted by Johns Hopkins University Bloomberg School of Public Health has found that the integration of proteomic and metabolomic modules can help identify functions that are important in kidney disease progression. The study analyzed proteins and metabolites in the Chronic Renal Insufficiency Cohort Study and identified 139 modules of correlated proteins and metabolites. Two modules, consisting of 236 proteins and 82 metabolites, were found to be associated with both chronic kidney disease progression and kidney failure. The study highlights the importance of integrating proteomic and metabolomic data in understanding kidney disease. [Extracted from the article]
