Project Abstract
English: Kidney sensing – toward a bacterial biosensor engineered for early stages chronic kidney disease
Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), which is characterized by alterations in kidney functions and structure, affects millions of people worldwide and a large portion of them is unaware of it. Absence of symptoms in early stages leads to a late diagnosis when patients need dialysis or even transplants. Currently, CKD is diagnosed by measuring creatinine levels in blood, which in turn are detectable only at late stages of renal dysfunction as well as are sensitive to factors such as diet, gender, ethnicity, age, muscle mass. We report the development of a biosensor that can diagnosis CKD in its early stages, identifying a biomarker named Cystatin C.
Using a cell surface biosensor as detector and quorum-sensing system as transducer and response mechanism, we developed a genetic circuit that establishes a threshold, differentiating concentration ranges of Cystatin C. We envisioned it as a fast, simple and reliable tool for CKD screening and diagnosis.
Português: Kidney sensing – Desenvolvendo um biossensor bacteriano para diagnóstico de estágios iniciais da doença renal crônica
A Doença Renal Crônica (DRC), caracterizada por alterações nas funções e na estrutura dos rins, afeta milhões de pessoas no mundo todo e grande porção delas não tem consciência disso. A ausência de sintomas em estágios iniciais leva a um diagnóstico tardio, quando os pacientes já necessitam de diálise ou até mesmo de transplantes. Atualmente, a DRC é diagnosticada através da quantificação de creatinina no sangue, que por sua vez é alterada a proporções detectáveis somente nos estágios mais avançados da disfunção renal, como também é sensível a fatores como: dieta, gênero, etnia, idade e massa muscular. Reportamos aqui o desenvolvimento de um biossensor que pode diagnosticar DRC em seus estágios iniciais, identificando um biomarcador chamado Cistatina C.
Usando a membrana celular como detector e um sistema de quorum sensing como mecanismo de transdução e de resposta, desenvolvemos um circuito gênico que estabelece uma barreira e diferencia faixas de concentração de Cistatina C. Nós o idealizamos como uma ferramenta rápida, simples e confiável para o diagnóstico de DRC. (Translated by Brasil-SP Team)

Elle atteint des millions de personnes à travers le monde mais un grand nombre d’entre elles ignorent qu’elles en sont atteintes. L’absence de symptômes au cours des stades précoces retarde le diagnostique et les patients ont d’ores et déjà besoin de dialyse ou même d’une transplantation.

Chronisch nierfalen, gekenmerkt door veranderingen in functie en structuur van de nier, treft miljoenen mensen wereldwijd en de meesten van hen zijn zich er niet van bewust. Een gebrek aan symptomen in vroege stadia van de ziekte leidt tot late diagnose wanneer patienten al dialyse of zelfs transplantatie nodig hebben. Momenteel wordt chronisch nierfalen gediagnostiseerd door het creatine niveau in het bloed te meten wat alleen meetbaar is in late stadia van nierfalen en gevoelig is voor factoren als dieet, geslacht, herkomst, leeftijd en spiermassa.
