Abstract
Ischemia–reperfusion injury (IRI) is an inevitable pathophysiological phenomenon in kidney transplantation. Necroptosis is an undoubtedly important contributing mechanism in renal IRI. We first screened differentially expressed necroptosis-related genes (DENRGs) from public databases. Eight DENRGs were validated by independent datasets and verified by qRT-PCR in a rat IRI model. We used univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses to establish a prognostic signature, and graft survival analysis was performed. Immune infiltrating landscape analysis and gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) were performed to understand the underlying mechanisms of graft loss, which suggested that necroptosis may aggravate the immune response, resulting in graft loss. Subsequently, a delayed graft function (DGF) diagnostic signature was constructed using the Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) and exhibited robust efficacy in validation datasets. After comprehensively analyzing DENRGs during IRI, we successfully constructed a prognostic signature and DGF predictive signature, which may provide clinical insights for kidney transplant.
