Transcriptomic analyses of renal allograft biopsies reveal conserved rejection signatures and molecular pathways

ABSTRACT: This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE9489: Analyses of heterogeneous renal allograft biopsies reveal conserved rejection signatures and molecular pathways I GSE9492: Analyses of heterogeneous renal allograft biopsies reveal conserved rejection signatures and molecular pathways II GSE17861: Analyses of heterogeneous renal allograft biopsies reveal conserved rejection signatures and molecular pathways I, partB Publication of acute rejection signature: Saint-Mezard P, Berthier CC, Zhang H, Hertig A, Kaiser S, Schumacher M, Wieczorek G, Bigaud M, Kehren J, Rondeau E, Raulf F, Marti HP. Analysis of independent microarray datasets of renal biopsies identifies a robust transcript signature of acute allograft rejection. Transpl. Int. 2009 Mar;22(3):293-302. Epub 2008 Nov 6. PMID: 19017305. We characterized a common transcriptional profile of 70 genes, defined as acute rejection transcript set (ARTS). ARTS expression is significantly up-regulated in all AR samples as compared with stable allografts or healthy kidneys, and strongly correlates with the severity of Banff AR types. Publication of metzincins expression signature in IF/TA (CAN): Rödder S, Scherer A, Raulf F, Berthier CC, Hertig A, Couzi L, Durrbach A, Rondeau E, Marti HP. Renal allografts with IF/TA display distinct expression profiles of metzincins and related genes. Am. J. Transplant. 2009 Mar;9(3):517-526. Epub 2009 Feb 3. PMID: 19191772. As members of the protease family metzincins and functionally related genes are involved in fibrotic and sclerotic processes of the extracellular matrix (ECM), we hypothesized their deregulation in IF/TA. Gene expression and protein level analyses using allograft biopsies with and without Banff'05 classified IF/TA illustrated their deregulation. Expression profiles of these genes differentiated IF/TA from Banff'05 classified Normal biopsies in three independent microarray studies and demonstrated histological progression of IF/TA I to III.

Project description:Specific early diagnosis of renal allograft rejection is gaining importance in the current trend to minimize and individualize immunosuppression. Gene expression analyses could contribute significantly by defining “molecular Banff” signatures. Several previous studies have applied transcriptomics to distinguish different classes of kidney biopsies. However, the heterogeneity of microarray platforms, clinical samples and data analysis methods complicates the identification of robust signatures for the different types and grades of rejection. To address these issues, a comparative meta-analysis was performed across five different microarray datasets of heterogeneous sample collections from two published clinical datasets and three own datasets including biopsies for clinical indications, protocol biopsies, as well as comparative samples from non-human primates (NHP). This work identified conserved gene expression signatures that can differentiate groups with different histopathological findings in both human and NHP, regardless of the technical platform used. The marker panels comprise genes that clearly support the biological changes known to be involved in allograft rejection. A characteristic dynamic expression change of genes associated with immune and kidney functions was observed across samples with different grades of CAN. In addition, differences between human and NHP rejection were essentially limited to genes reflecting interstitial fibrosis progression. This data set here comprises a small validation batch of renal allograft biopsies for clinical indications plus control normal kidney samples from patients at Hôpital Tenon, Paris (second batch) that complements the first batch of 60 samples. We used microarrays to identify different gene expression signatures of renal allograft biopsies that can classify them according to different types of allograft rejection or CAN.

Project description:The survival of transplant kidneys using deceased donors (DD) is inferior to living donors (LD). In this study, we conducted a whole-transcriptome expression analysis of 24 human kidney biopsies paired at 30 minutes and 3 months post-transplantation using DD and LD. The transcriptome profile was found significantly different between two time points regardless of donor types. There were 446 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between DD and LD at 30 minutes and 146 DEGs at 3 months, with 25 genes common to both time points. These DEGs reflected donor injury and acute immune responses associated with inflammation and cell death as early as at 30 minutes, which could be a precious window of potential intervention. DEGs at 3 months mainly represented the changes of adaptive immunity, immunosuppressive treatment, remodeling or fibrosis via different networks and signaling pathways. The expression levels of 20 highly DEGs involved in kidney diseases and 10 genes dysregulated at 30 minutes were found correlated with renal function and histology at 12 months, suggesting they could be potential biomarkers. These genes were further validated by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) in 24 samples analysed by microarray, as well as in a validation cohort of 33 time point unpaired allograft biopsies. This analysis revealed that SERPINA3, SLPI and CBF were up-regulated at 30 minutes in DD compared to LD, while FTCD and TASPN7 were up-regulated at both time points. At 3 months, SERPINA3 was up-regulated in LD, but down-regulated in DD, with increased VCAN and TIMP1, and decreased FOS, in both donors. Taken together, divergent transcriptomic signatures between DD and LD, and changed by the time post-transplantation, might contribute to different allograft survival of two type kidney donors. Some DEGs including FTCD and TASPN7 could be novel biomarkers not only for timely diagnosis, but also for early precise genetic intervention at donor preservation, implantation and post-transplantation, in particular to effectively improve the quality and survival of DD.
