    Abstract The complement system is considered to be an important part of innate immune system with a significant role in inflammation processes. The activation can occur through classical, alternative, or lectin pathway, resulting in the creation of anaphylatoxins C3a and C5a, possessing a vast spectrum of immune functions, and the assembly of terminal complement cascade, capable of direct cell lysis. The activation processes are tightly regulated; inappropriate activation of the complement cascade plays a significant role in many renal diseases including organ transplantation. Moreover, complement cascade is activated during ischemia/reperfusion injury processes and influences delayed graft function of kidney allografts. Interestingly, complement system has been found to play a role in both acute cellular and antibody-mediated rejections and thrombotic microangiopathy. Therefore, complement system may represent an interesting therapeutical target in kidney transplant pathologies.

    Abstract Secondary hyperparathyroidism is a well-known complication of end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Both nodular and diffuse parathyroid hyperplasia occur in ESRD patients. However, their distinct molecular mechanisms remain poorly understood. Parathyroid tissue obtained from ESRD patients who had undergone parathyroidectomy was used for Illumina transcriptome screening and subsequently for discriminatory gene analysis, pathway mapping, and gene annotation enrichment analysis. Results were further validated using quantitative RT-PCR on the independent larger cohort. Microarray screening proved homogeneity of gene transcripts in hemodialysis patients compared with the transplant cohort and primary hyperparathyroidism; therefore, further experiments were performed in hemodialysis patients only. Enrichment analysis conducted on 485 differentially expressed genes between nodular and diffuse parathyroid hyperplasia revealed highly significant differences in Gene Ontology terms and the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes database in ribosome structure (P = 3.70 × 10
