As a hepadnavirus, hepatitis B virus (HBV) can cause damage to extrahepatic organs. The kidney is one of the organs that is more susceptible to damage. Research studies on HBV-associated glomerulonephritis (HBV-GN) have been going on for decades. However, the underlying molecular mechanism remains obscure. Here, we applied a tandem mass tag (TMT) isobaric labeling-based method to quantitatively profile the kidney proteome of HBV transgenic mice to illustrate the pathological mechanisms of HBV-GN. Weighted correlation network analysis, a clustering method for gene expression, is used to cluster proteins. Totally, we identified 127 proteins that were highly associated with HBV expression out of a total of 5169 quantified proteins. Among them, the downregulated solute carrier (SLC) family proteins are involved in the process of HBV-GN. We also found that IL1B was upregulated in the kidney tissue of HBV transgenic mice. These findings suggest that HBV disrupts the small molecule transport network of the kidney, which contributes to the occurrence of HBV-GN. The transporter, particularly SLC family 7 member 7 (SLC7A7), is involved in this process, which might serve as an intervention target for HBV-GN. All MS data have been deposited to the ProteomeXchange Consortium via the iProX partner repository with the data set identifier PXD016450.
