Evaluation of cisplatin-induced injury in human kidney organoids.

ABSTRACT: Acute kidney injury (AKI) remains a major global healthcare problem, and there is a need to develop human-based models to study AKI in vitro. Toward this goal, we have characterized induced pluripotent stem cell-derived human kidney organoids and their response to cisplatin, a chemotherapeutic drug that induces AKI and preferentially damages the proximal tubule. We found that a single treatment with 50 µM cisplatin induces hepatitis A virus cellular receptor 1 (HAVCR1) and C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 8 (CXCL8) expression, DNA damage (γH2AX), and cell death in the organoids but greatly impairs organoid viability. DNA damage was not specific to the proximal tubule but also affected the distal tubule and interstitial cell populations. This lack of specificity correlated with low expression of proximal tubule-specific SLC22A2/organic cation transporter 2 (OCT2) for cisplatin. To improve viability, we developed a repeated low-dose regimen of 4 × 5 µM cisplatin over 7 days and found this caused less toxicity while still inducing a robust injury response that included secretion of known AKI biomarkers and inflammatory cytokines. This work validates the use of human kidney organoids to model aspects of cisplatin-induced injury, with the potential to identify new AKI biomarkers and develop better therapies.

Evaluation of cisplatin-induced injury in human kidney organoids

Project description:Acute kidney injury (AKI) remains a major global healthcare problem and there is a need to develop human-based models to study AKI in vitro. Towards this goal, we have characterized induced pluripotent stem cell-derived human kidney organoids and their response to cisplatin, a chemotherapeutic drug that induces AKI and preferentially damages the proximal tubule. We found that a single treatment with 50 µM cisplatin induces HAVCR1 and CXCL8 expression, DNA damage (γH2AX) and cell death in the organoids in a dose-dependent manner but greatly impairs organoid viability. DNA damage was not specific to the proximal tubule but also affected the distal tubule and interstitial cell populations. This lack of specificity correlated with low expression of the proximal tubule-specific SLC22A2/OCT2 transporter for cisplatin. To improve viability, we developed a repeated low-dose regimen of 4x 5 µM cisplatin over 7 days and found this causing less toxicity while still inducing a robust AKI response that included secretion of known AKI biomarkers and inflammatory cytokines. This work validates the use of human kidney organoids to model aspects of AKI, with the potential to identify new AKI biomarkers and develop better therapies.

Evaluation of variability in human kidney organoids.

Project description:The utility of human pluripotent stem cell-derived kidney organoids relies implicitly on the robustness and transferability of the protocol. Here we analyze the sources of transcriptional variation in a specific kidney organoid protocol. Although individual organoids within a differentiation batch showed strong transcriptional correlation, we noted significant variation between experimental batches, particularly in genes associated with temporal maturation. Single-cell profiling revealed shifts in nephron patterning and proportions of component cells. Distinct induced pluripotent stem cell clones showed congruent transcriptional programs, with interexperimental and interclonal variation also strongly associated with nephron patterning. Epithelial cells isolated from organoids aligned with total organoids at the same day of differentiation, again implicating relative maturation as a confounder. This understanding of experimental variation facilitated an optimized analysis of organoid-based disease modeling, thereby increasing the utility of kidney organoids for personalized medicine and functional genomics.

Hyperhomocysteinemia Exacerbates Cisplatin-induced Acute Kidney Injury.

Project description:Hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy) has been linked to several clinical manifestations including chronic kidney disease. However, it is not known whether HHcy has a role in the development of acute kidney injury (AKI). In the present study, we reported that HHcy mice developed more severe renal injury after cisplatin injection and ischemia-reperfusion injury shown as more severe renal tubular damage and higher serum creatinine. In response to cisplatin, HHcy mice showed more prevalent tubular cell apoptosis and decreased tubular cell proliferation. Mechanistically, a heightened ER stress and a reduced Akt activity were observed in kidney tissues of HHcy mice after cisplatin injection. Stimulating cultured NRK-52E cells with Hcy significantly increased the fraction of cells in G2/M phase and cell apoptosis together with decreased Akt kinase activity. Akt agonist IGF-1 rescued HHcy-induced cell cycle arrest and cell apoptosis. In conclusion, the present study provides evidence that HHcy increases the sensitivity and severity of AKI.

Modeling oxidative injury response in human kidney organoids.

Project description:BackgroundHemolysis occurs in many injury settings and can trigger disease processes. In the kidney, extracellular hemoglobin can induce damage via several mechanisms. These include oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, and inflammation, which promote fibrosis and chronic kidney disease. Understanding the pathophysiology of these injury pathways offers opportunities to develop new therapeutic strategies.MethodsTo model hemolysis-induced kidney injury, human kidney organoids were treated with hemin, an iron-containing porphyrin, that generates reactive oxygen species. In addition, we developed an induced pluripotent stem cell line expressing the biosensor, CytochromeC-GFP (CytoC-GFP), which provides a real-time readout of mitochondrial morphology, health, and early apoptotic events.ResultsWe found that hemin-treated kidney organoids show oxidative damage, increased expression of injury markers, impaired functionality of organic anion and cation transport and undergo fibrosis. Injury could be detected in live CytoC-GFP organoids by cytoplasmic localization of fluorescence. Finally, we show that 4-(phenylthio)butanoic acid, an HDAC inhibitor with anti-fibrotic effects in vivo, reduces hemin-induced human kidney organoid fibrosis.ConclusionThis work establishes a hemin-induced model of kidney organoid injury. This platform provides a new tool to study the injury and repair response pathways in human kidney tissue and will assist in the development of new therapeutics.

Mitochondrial Superoxide Dismutase in Cisplatin-Induced Kidney Injury.

Project description:Cisplatin is a chemotherapy agent commonly used to treat a wide variety of cancers. Despite the potential for both severe acute and chronic side effects, it remains a preferred therapeutic option for many malignancies due to its potent anti-tumor activity. Common cisplatin-associated side-effects include acute kidney injury (AKI) and chronic kidney disease (CKD). These renal injuries may cause delays and potentially cessation of cisplatin therapy and have long-term effects on renal function reserve. Thus, developing mechanism-based interventional strategies that minimize cisplatin-associated kidney injury without reducing efficacy would be of great benefit. In addition to its action of cross-linking DNA, cisplatin has been shown to affect mitochondrial metabolism, resulting in mitochondrially derived reactive oxygen species (ROS). Increased ROS formation in renal proximal convoluted tubule cells is associated with cisplatin-induced AKI and CKD. We review the mechanisms by which cisplatin may induce AKI and CKD and discuss the potential of mitochondrial superoxide dismutase mimetics to prevent platinum-associated nephrotoxicity.

Metabolomics study of fasudil on cisplatin-induced kidney injury.

Project description:Fasudil is a derivative of 5-isoquinoline sulfonamide, which is a Rho kinase inhibitor, a wide range of pharmacological effects. Fasudil has been shown to attenuate kidney injury caused by certain substances. In the present study, metabolomic analysis of mouse kidney tissues ultra-performance liquid chromatography/quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry was used to determine the metabolomic changes in cisplatin-induced kidney injury and the fasudil-induced attenuation of cisplatin-induced kidney injury. Metabolomic profiling of kidney tissues revealed significant differences in metabolites between the control group and the cisplatin group and between the cisplatin group and the fasudil-intervention group. With metabolomic approach, 68 endogenous differential metabolites were found, and multivariate statistical analysis, accurate molecular weights, isotope tracers, mass-spectrometry secondary-fragment information, and standard-reference comparisons were used to identify these substances. Based on these differential metabolites, a metabolic-pathway network was constructed and revealed that fasudil primarily attenuated cisplatin-induced renal injury by modulating lipid and amino-acid metabolism. These results further demonstrate that kidney injury can be induced by cisplatin and, moreover, suggest that fasudil can be used to reduce kidney injury at early stages in patients treated with cisplatin.

DNA demethylase Tet2 suppresses cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury.

Project description:Demethylase Tet2 plays a vital role in the immune response. Acute kidney injury (AKI) initiation and maintenance phases are marked by inflammatory responses and leukocyte recruitment in endothelial and tubular cell injury processes. However, the role of Tet2 in AKI is poorly defined. Our study determined the degree of renal tissue damage associated with Tet2 gene expression levels in a cisplatin-induced AKI mice model. Tet2-knockout (KO) mice with cisplatin treatment experienced severe tubular necrosis and dilatation, inflammation, and AKI markers' expression levels than the wild-type mice. In addition, the administration of Tet2 plasmid protected Tet2-KO mice from cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity, but not Tet2-catalytic-dead mutant. Tet2 KO was associated with a change in metabolic pathways like retinol, arachidonic acid, linolenic acid metabolism, and PPAR signaling pathway in the cisplatin-induced mice model. Tet2 expression is also downregulated in other AKI mice models and clinical samples. Thus, our results indicate that Tet2 has a renal protective effect during AKI by regulating metabolic and inflammatory responses through the PPAR signaling pathway.

Transcriptomic dataset after cisplatin induced acute kidney injury

Project description:Cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury (AKI) is one of the most common and severe side effects and can prevent the use of this important agent. Unfortunately, preventive or therapeutic tools to address cisplatin-induced AKI are lacking. Interestingly, in the last decades a row of preconditioning strategies that employ the activation of cellular stress resistance pathways have been shown to be promising approaches to protect from organ injury in rodent models. Here, we characterized both the protective potential and the underlying molecular patterns of two strategies – caloric restriction and hypoxic preconditioning – in mice treated with cisplatin.

PINK1 Deficiency Ameliorates Cisplatin-Induced Acute Kidney Injury in Rats.

Project description:Mitophagy plays a key role in cleaning damaged and depolarized mitochondria to maintain cellular homeostasis and viability. Although it was originally found in neurodegenerative diseases, mitophagy is reported to play an important role in acute kidney injury. PINK1 and Parkin are key molecules in mitophagy pathway. Here, we used PINK1 knockout rats to examine the role of PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitophagy in cisplatin nephrotoxicity. After cisplatin treatment, PINK1 knockout rats showed lower plasma creatinine and less tubular damage when compared with wild-type rats. Meanwhile, mitophagy indicated by autophagosome formation and LC3B-II accumulation was also attenuated in PINK1 knockout rats. Renal expression of PINK1 and Parkin were down-regulated while BNIP3L was up-regulated by cisplatin treatment, indicating a major role of BNIP3/BNIP3L pathway in cisplatin-induced mitophagy. Transmission electron microscopy showed that PINK1 deficiency inhibited cisplatin-induced mitochondrial fragmentation indicating an involvement of mitochondrial fusion and fission. Renal expression of mitochondrial dynamics related proteins including Fis1, Drp1, Mfn1, Mfn2, and Opa1 were checked by real-time PCR and western blots. The results showed PINK1 deficiency distinctly prevented cisplatin-induced up-regulation of DRP1. Finally, PINK1 deficiency alleviated cisplatin-induced tubular apoptosis indicated by TUNEL assay as well as the expression of caspase3 and cleaved caspase3. Together, these results suggested PINK1 deficiency ameliorated cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury in rats, possibly via inhibiting DRP1-mediated mitochondrial fission and excessive mitophagy.
