Expression and secretion of CXCL12 are enhanced in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease.

ABSTRACT: Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), one of the most common human monogenic diseases (frequency of 1/1000-1/400), is characterized by numerous fluid-filled renal cysts (RCs). Inactivation of the PKD1 or PKD2 gene by germline and somatic mutations is necessary for cyst formation in ADPKD. To mechanistically understand cyst formation and growth, we isolated RCs from Korean patients with ADPKD and immortalized them with human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT). Three hTERT-immortalized RC cell lines were characterized as proximal epithelial cells with germline and somatic PKD1 mutations. Thus, we first established hTERT-immortalized proximal cyst cells with somatic PKD1 mutations. Through transcriptome sequencing and Gene Ontology (GO) analysis, we found that upregulated genes were related to cell division and that downregulated genes were related to cell differentiation. We wondered whether the upregulated gene for the chemokine CXCL12 is related to the mTOR signaling pathway in cyst growth in ADPKD. CXCL12 mRNA expression and secretion were increased in RC cell lines. We then examined CXCL12 levels in RC fluids from patients with ADPKD and found increased CXCL12 levels. The CXCL12 receptor CXC chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) was upregulated, and the mTOR signaling pathway, which is downstream of the CXCL12/CXCR4 axis, was activated in ADPKD kidney tissue. To confirm activation of the mTOR signaling pathway by CXCL12 via CXCR4, we treated the RC cell lines with recombinant CXCL12 and the CXCR4 antagonist AMD3100; CXCL12 induced the mTOR signaling pathway, but the CXCR4 antagonist AMD3100 blocked the mTOR signaling pathway. Taken together, these results suggest that enhanced CXCL12 in RC fluids activates the mTOR signaling pathway via CXCR4 in ADPKD cyst growth. [BMB Reports 2019; 52(7): 463-468].

Project description:BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:In autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), the GFR often remains normal despite significant nephron loss. Proximal tubular secretory clearance may be reduced in ADPKD before detectable changes in GFR. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS:We used targeted mass spectrometry to quantify secretory solutes from blood and urine samples from 31 patients with ADPKD and preserved GFR (mean eGFR =111±11 ml/min per 1.73 m2) and 25 healthy control individuals as well as from 95 patients with ADPKD and reduced GFR (mean eGFR =53±21 ml/min per 1.73 m2) and 92 individuals with non-ADPKD CKD. We used linear regression to compare the fractional excretion of each solute between ADPKD and control groups. Among 112 patients with ADPKD, we used linear regression to determine associations of solute fractional excretion with height-adjusted total kidney volume. RESULTS:After adjusting for demographics, clinical characteristics, and kidney function measures, the fractional excretions of three secretory solutes were lower in patients with ADPKD and preserved GFR compared with healthy individuals: 52% lower cinnamoylglycine excretion (95% confidence interval, 24% to 70%), 53% lower tiglylglycine excretion (95% confidence interval, 23% to 71%), and 91% lower xanthosine excretion (95% confidence interval, 83% to 95%). In addition to lower excretions of tiglylglycine and xanthosine, patients with ADPKD and reduced GFR also demonstrated 37% lower dimethyluric acid excretion (95% confidence interval, 21% to 50%), 58% lower hippurate excretion (95% confidence interval, 48% to 66%), 48% lower isovalerylglycine excretion (95% confidence interval, 37% to 56%), and 31% lower pyridoxic acid excretion (95% confidence interval, 16% to 42%) compared with patients with non-ADPKD CKD and comparable eGFR. Among patients with ADPKD, solute fractional excretions were not associated with differences in kidney volume. CONCLUSIONS:Patients with ADPKD and preserved and reduced GFR demonstrate lower tubular secretory solute excretion compared with healthy controls and patients with non-ADPKD CKD. Our results suggest that tubular secretion is impaired in ADPKD independent of GFR.
