In addition, seven genes (ARG2, CSHL1, CX3CR1, LTF, LYZ, TMSB10, TRIM27) were considered to be important biomarkers of GN diagnosis and prediction, and 20 DIRGs in glomeruli and tubulointerstitium of each subtype of GN were selected as characteristic genes based on DL. This evidence concerns the gene LTF and ganglioneuroma.
