Roles for Exosome in Various Kidney Diseases and Disorders.

ABSTRACT: Exosome is a nanoscale vesicle with a size range of 30-100 nm. It is secreted from cell to extracellular space by exocytosis after fusion of multivesicular body (MVB) (formed by endocytic vesicles) with plasma membrane. Exosome plays several important roles in cellular homeostasis and intercellular communications. During the last two decades, exosome has acquired a wide attention to explore its additional roles in various aspects of cell biology and function in several organ systems. For the kidney, several lines of evidence have demonstrated 1that exosome is involved in the renal physiology and pathogenic mechanisms of various kidney diseases/disorders. This article summarizes roles of the exosome as the potential source of biomarkers, pathogenic molecules, and therapeutic biologics that have been extensively investigated in many kidney diseases/disorders, including lupus nephritis (LN), other glomerular diseases, acute kidney injury (AKI), diabetic nephropathy (DN), as well as in the process of renal fibrosis and chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression, in addition to polycystic kidney disease (PKD), kidney transplantation, and renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Moreover, the most recent evidence has shown its emerging role in kidney stone disease (or nephrolithiasis), involving inflammasome activation and inflammatory cascade frequently found in kidney stone pathogenesis.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Metabolites that are direct read-outs of the functional status of cells, tissues, and organs can be more closely associated with phenotype compared to other omics profiles. Previous studies showed the analytical validity of metabolomic platforms and demonstrated a utility in interpreting the impact of genetic variants.METHODS: To explore the utility of metabolomics in the context of precision medicine, we used an untargeted ultrahigh performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectroscopy to characterize plasma samples collected from generally healthy individuals and a deeply phenotyped cohort with various pediatric diseases.RESULTS: A total of 1244 metabolites including 224 xenobiotic compounds were quantitatively measured for 169 individuals and thus revealed complex correlation structure within and between metabolic pathways. As proofs-of-concept, perturbations of phenylalanine and tyrosine metabolic pathways in a patient with phenylketonuria and carbohydrate metabolism in patients with diabetes mellitus were recapitulated as well as highlighting other biomarkers such as 1,5−anhydroglucitol for monitoring glycemic control. We discovered multiple metabolites that were significantly associated with different diseases using an exposome-wide association analysis framework. Amino acids showed significantly changed in patients with congenital heart diseases, and multiple lipid compounds were significant for Crohn’s disease. Notably, gut microbial products showed different concentrations with the use of antibiotics. Each xenobiotic compound showed a distinct correlation pattern with endogenous metabolites.CONCLUSIONS: Untargeted metabolomics could be a powerful precision medicine platform in itself or in combination with WES. The impact of exogenous exposures such as microbial products, drugs and environmental toxicants can be directly estimated by monitoring internal exposome, enabling the discovery of novel diagnosis and treatment biomarkers in diverse diseases. A repository of metabolomics data is required, which will enable the comparison between different platforms and concentrations of thousands of metabolites across individuals.
