Intersecting genes identified by CKD GWAS studies and those that are transcriptionally regulated in CKD. (a) The list of up- and down- regulated genes in glomerular and tubular area, respectively. The common genes are indicated in different colors. (b) PPI diagram of the regulated GWAS CKD genes, highlighting the module of collagen genes. Only the interactions of two genes were approved with experiments, derived from databases, co-expressed were considered in this analysis, as well the protein homologies. (c) KEGG enriched pathways of these genes showing AGE-RAGE, ECM and cell senescence. (d) 62% of the CKD-regulated GWAS genes overlap with kidney-specific eQTL-associated eGenes [41, 42]
