The invention discloses application of a PDLIM2
gene overexpression
virus vector in preparation of a
medicine for treating podocytosis. The
nucleotide sequence of a PDLIM2
gene is as shown in SEQ ID NO: 1. The core effect of the PDLIM2
gene in podocytosis protection is found and verified for the first time, it is confirmed that the expression of the PDLIM2 gene in DKD and FSGS
disease models is remarkably reduced, and functional experiments prove that the overexpression of the PDLIM2 can effectively stabilize podocytoskeleton, inhibit
apoptosis and relieve
proteinuria, so that the PDLIM2 gene is determined as a key
target gene for treating podocytosis. According to the invention, the stability of the
cytoskeleton, which is a core link of
podocyte injury, is intervened from the gene level for the first time. The expression of the PDLIM2 in the
podocyte is specifically up-regulated, so that the internal
cytoskeleton support and damage resistance of the
podocyte are directly enhanced, and the fundamental
treatment strategy conversion from symptomatic support to cause repair is realized.
