Molecular and Ionic Solids

20.2K
Crystalline solids are divided into four types: molecular, ionic, metallic, and covalent network based on the type of constituent units and their interparticle interactions.
Molecular Solids
Molecular crystalline solids, such as ice, sucrose (table sugar), and iodine, are solids that are composed of neutral molecules as their constituent units. These molecules are held together by weak intermolecular forces such as London dispersion forces, dipole-dipole interactions, or hydrogen bonds, which...

Area of Science:

  • Nephrology
  • Genomics
  • Epigenetics
  • Aging Research

Background:

  • Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and comorbidities accelerate aging, leading to organ failure and impacting transplant success.
  • Biological age, influenced by epigenetic and environmental factors, correlates with adverse outcomes like delayed graft function (DGF) post-transplantation.
  • The molecular underpinnings of impaired physiological function and reduced resilience in aging kidneys remain incompletely understood.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To determine a molecular signature associated with loss of resilience and impaired physiological function in human renal allografts.
  • To investigate the relationship between biological age, epigenetic modifications, and transplant outcomes.
  • To identify key molecular pathways involved in kidney aging and stress response.

Main Methods:

  • Synchronous genome, transcriptome, and proteome analysis of human renal allografts.
  • Identification of specific transcripts and noncoding RNAs associated with DGF.
  • DNA methylation analysis in preperfusion allografts.
  • Pathway analysis and cross-comparison with public renal pathology datasets.

Main Results:

  • A molecular signature comprising 42 transcripts, primarily related to IFNγ signaling, was identified.
  • Allografts with DGF showed greater transcriptional amplitude changes, elevated noncoding RNAs, and pseudogene expression.
  • Increased DNA methylation was observed in DGF-associated transcripts.
  • Pathway analysis revealed impaired inflammatory response resolution and decreased stress resilience in biologically older allografts.
  • Significant transcriptional overlap (over 20 DGF transcripts) was found with public renal pathology datasets.

Conclusions:

  • The study defines a molecular signature for kidney "wear and tear," reflecting age-related physiological capacity and resilience.
  • This signature provides a tool for assessing biological age and predicting transplant outcomes.
  • Findings highlight the role of impaired inflammatory resolution and reduced stress resilience in kidney aging and dysfunction.
