Title: Identification of Diagnostic Markers and Therapeutic Targets for Chronic Kidney Disease through Systems Biology Approaches

Abstract: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a growing public health concern worldwide due to its high prevalence, morbidity, and mortality rates. Despite recent advances in the understanding of the disease pathophysiology, early detection, diagnosis, and treatment of CKD remain challenging due to its multifactorial etiology and complex network of molecular interactions. In this study, we employed a systems biology approach to comprehensively analyze and integrate multiple omics data sets to identify potential diagnostic markers and therapeutic targets for CKD. Our analyses revealed that dysregulation of signaling pathways involved in glucose metabolism, lipid metabolism, apoptosis, and inflammation is a common feature of CKD. Furthermore, we identified several novel candidate genes that have not been previously reported to be associated with CKD, including CD177, TNFRSF14, CEMIP, and ADAMTS13. These genes were found to be highly connected in the protein-protein interaction networks and enriched in key pathways related to inflammation and immune response. Finally, we performed network-based drug repurposing analysis to identify potential therapeutic agents for CKD. Our study provides new insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying CKD and offers promising candidates for the development of novel diagnostic markers and therapeutic interventions.

Keywords: chronic kidney disease; systems biology; omics; diagnostic markers; therapeutic targets; drug repurposing.

Introduction:

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a significant public health problem worldwide affecting approximately 10-15% of the adult population [1]. It is characterized by a gradual loss of kidney function over time, leading to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease, end-stage renal disease (ESRD), and premature death [2]. Despite significant advances in the understanding of the disease pathophysiology, early detection, diagnosis, and treatment of CKD remain challenging due to its multifactorial etiology and complex network of molecular interactions [3,4]. Therefore, there is a need for a systems-level understanding of the underlying mechanisms of CKD to identify potential diagnostic markers and therapeutic targets for effective management of the disease.

Systems biology is an interdisciplinary field that integrates computational and experimental approaches to understand biological systems at multiple levels of organization [5]. The field has emerged as a powerful tool for analysing high-dimensional omics data sets, such as genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics, in the context of disease pathophysiology [6,7]. In recent years, several studies have used systems biology approaches to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying CKD [8-10]. However, most of these studies have focused on analyzing a single type of omics data, and there is a lack of integrative analyses that consider multiple layers of information to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the disease.

In this study, we employed a systems biology approach to analyze and integrate multiple types of omics data, including gene expression, protein-protein interaction (PPI) network, and pathway enrichment analysis, to gain insights into the molecular basis of CKD. Specifically, our objectives were to identify potential diagnostic markers and therapeutic targets for CKD and to explore the molecular mechanisms underlying the disease pathophysiology.

Materials and Methods:

Data Retrieval and Pre-processing

We retrieved publicly available gene expression data from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database (accession number GSE104954), which contained renal biopsy samples from 100 patients with CKD across different stages of the disease and 30 normal controls.
