The following potential proteases for the different CKD aetiologies were identified: ADPKD (MMP7), MCD (CTSB, CTSD, CTSE, MEP1A, MMP7, PGA3), MGN (MMP3, MMP7, MMP9, MMP13, MMP14), IgAN (MMP7), FSGS (MMP3, MMP7), vasculitis (PGA3), nephritis (MMP7, MMP9), nephrosclerosis (MMP7), and DKD (MMP9). Here, MMP14 is linked to chronic kidney disease.
