Obesity increases the risk of cardiovascular disease, diabetes and chronic kidney disease. Obesity-related glomerulopathy (ORG) is a potentially reversible cause of kidney disease that often progresses silently until it reaches irreversible stages. However, we are still lacking a sensitive and specific biomarker to identify patients with obesity who are at risk of developing CKD. The role of microRNAs (miRNAs) has emerged as a promising area for diagnostic and therapeutic applications in kidney disease. Recent research has highlighted the specific roles of various miRNAs in renal function, showing that their dysregulation can contribute to the development of kidney diseases. This review will discuss the emerging role of miRNAs in the context of ORG, focusing on their potential as biomarkers and therapeutic targets for this increasingly prevalent disease.
