Exosomal Consignment in Renal Allograft Injury-Juniper Publishers
Exosomes are small mobile endocytic vesicles (30-120nm), shredded by
every cell to conduct trafficking of cell generated cargo. They are
found in almost all body fluids (blood, csf, saliva, urine). These
include proteins, lipids, DNA, mi(cro)RNAs etc. In multicellular
organisms, they are packaged into numerous vesicles mainly in exosomes
to conduct their transport for various cellular activities which can be
exploited clinically. Presently the survival of renal allograft is
monitored by mostly invasive methods (tissue biopsy, Creatinine, GFR)
where curving the injury is quite difficult. Hence potency of molecular
markers like proteins and then circulating miRNAs came to picture for
early detection of renal injury (Acute Kidney Injury-AKI and Chronic
Kidney Disease-CKD). However, due to lack of specificity of circulating
miRNAs lose their feasibility and the discovery of these exosomal cargos
in cellular communication has become an efficient tool for treatment of
various complicated clinical condition including renal allograft
injury.
