Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are 22 nucleotides short, non-coding and tissue-specific single-stranded RNA which modulates target gene expression. Presently, shreds of evidence confirmed that miRNAs play a key role in kidney pathophysiology. The objectives of the present review are to summarize new research data towards the latest developments in the potential use of miRNAs as a diagnostic biomarker for kidney diseases. This holistic information will update the existing knowledge of kidney disease biomarkers. "miRNA profile for Diabetic Kidney disease, Acute kidney injury, Renal fibrosis, hemodialysis, transplants, FSGS, IgAN, etc." are the search keywords which have been used in this review. The search outcome gave an exciting insightful perception of miRNAs competence as a biomarker. Also it is observed that various samples as plasma, urine and biopsies were used for profiling the miRNA expression. The miRNAs were not only used for diagnostic biomarkers but also for therapeutic targets. Each kidney disease showed different miRNAs expression profile and few miRNAs quite common with some kidney diseases. miRNAs are simple and efficient diagnostic biomarkers for kidney diseases.
