Project description:Two Near Isogenic soybean (Glycine max) lines were grown in hydroponic conditions with either 50uM ferric nitrate or 100uM ferric nitrate. After 10 days, half the plants were harvested (total root tissue). At 12 days after planting, iron was added to plants grown in low iron conditions bringing them up to sufficient iron growth conditions. Root tissue was harvested for the remaining plants at 14 days after planting. Gene expression analysis from root tissue of two Near Isogenic Lines (NILs), Clark (PI548553) and IsoClark (PI547430), grown in iron stress or iron stress recovered conditions.

Project description:To find miRNAs that involve in renal epithelial transition and renal fibrosis, we performed unilateral ureteral obstruction of mice for 7 days. After that, we harvested kidneys, and performed microarray of miRNA. Contralateral kidneys without ureteral obstruction were used as controls. miRNAs were purified from kidneys with ureteral obstruction and contralateral kidneys without ureteral obstruction. Then microarray of miRNA was performed (n=4). miRNAs up-regulated in kidneys with ureteral obsctruction compared with contralateral kidneys were sorted. We performed unilateral ureteral obstruction of mice for 7 days, and harvested kidneys.

Project description:Fibrosis disrupts adipose tissue (AT) homeostasis in response to chronic caloric excess, exacerbating metabolic dysfunction. The molecular mechanisms linking adipocyte plasticity to AT fibrosis are largely unknown. Here we show that the Hippo pathway is coupled with TGFbeta signaling to orchestrate a functional adipocyte-to-myofibroblast transition in AT fibrosis. We found that Lats1/2-knockout adipocytes could dedifferentiate into DPP4+ progenitor cells and convert to DPP4- myofibroblasts upon TGFbeta stimulation. Macrophages recruited by CCL2 served as a major cell source of TGFbeta. YAP and TAZ, the Hippo downstream effectors, enhanced SMAD2 stability to promote fibrotic responses. Importantly, inhibition of YAP/TAZ activity in obese mice markedly relieved AT fibrosis and improved metabolic homeostasis. Together, our findings identify the Hippo pathway as a molecular switch in the initiation and development of AT fibrosis, implying it as a therapeutic target.

Project description:Symptoms including pain and discomfort commonly present during ureteral stenting is not well understood. We investigated global changes in ureters at the transcriptional, translational, and functional levels while stents are indwelling and following removal and recovery using a porcine model. Polaris stents (6Fr, Boston Scientific, Natick, MA) were cystoscopically inserted with placement confirmed using fluoroscopy. For proteomics samples, ureters were stented for 14 days and recovered for 7 days and each pig was stented unilaterally so that the contralateral unstented kidney and ureter served as an internal control.

Project description:The exact role of epigenetics in the pathogenesis of severe acute respiratory syndrome corona virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is unclear. Herein we have hypothesized that viral micro RNAs (miRNAs) may modulate host cellular and immune responses which may lead to varied clinical presentations. Using bioinformatics tools, we have first predicted putative miRNAs in the genotype of the SARS-CoV-2 and their potential gene targets. Thereafter, quantification of mRNA of key genes regulating inflammation, coagulation, neuropsychiatric functions, fibrosis and glucose metabolism was evaluated in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells and bone marrow of patients suffering from different severities of SARS-CoV-2 infection. Key genes regulating innate immunity, lymphopoiesis, T-cell and B-cell development, cytokine storm, coagulation pathways, fibrosis, neuropsychiatric manifestations, glucose metabolism, and olfaction were significantly downregulated in severe infection when compared with mild infection. Downregulated genes mRNA recovered to normal/near normal levels on recovery from infection. SARS-CoV-2 miRNAs appear promising players in the pathogenesis of COVID-19. Strategies silencing these miRNAs may be explored further as potential therapeutic targets. Patients with severe illness were defined as: respiratory rate ≥30 per min or SpO2 <90% in ambient air, or acute respiratory distress syndrome or septic shock and those with mild illness as: patients with any of the symptoms like fever, cough, sore throat, malaise, headache, muscle pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, loss of taste and smell, but no dyspnea, or abnormal chest imaging. There were 4 severe SARS CoV-2 patients, Median age 57.5 years (Range 50-72 years), all males, median disease duration 7.5 days, duration of hospital stay 38 days with outcome as 3 deaths and one Post covid lung fibrosis. All 4 mild cases had median age 55.5 years (range 42-0 years), 3 males and one female, mean disease duration 2.8 days, mean duration of hospitalization 14.5 days and all recovered. Median age of all 4 recovered cases was 59 years (range 43-77 years), 3 males and one female, mean disease duration of 6 days, mean disease duration of 22 days and all recovered. There were 4 healthy subjects with median age 50 years (range 42-54 years) and there were 3 males and one female.

Project description:Transcriptomic profile of recovered exogenous Tregs from injured bone, muscle, and skin of mice that were locally treated with Tregs, as well as heart, mediastinal lymph nodes (MLN) and spleen from mice with myocardial infarcts (MI) that were systemically treated with Tregs. Mice with tissue injuries were treated with exogenous Tregs that were sorted from spleens of Foxp3(IRES-mRFP) mice - C57BL6/J mice with bone, muscle and skin injuries were treated via hydrogel-mediated local delivery of Tregs soon after injury, while mice with myocardial infarcts (MI) were treated with systemic (intravenous) delivery of Tregs one day post-MI. Three days after Treg-delivery, the injured bone, muscle, and skin tissues, as well as heart, mediastinal lymph nodes and spleens from mice with MI were harvested, and the exogenous (delivered) Tregs were recovered by FACS sorting. These sorted exogenous Tregs recovered at day 3 post-Treg delivery (Day 3 recovered Tregs) were then used for mini-bulk RNA sequencing along with spleen Tregs before delivery as a control (Day 0 Spleen Tregs).

All 3 patients who underwent bone marrow examination had severe Covid-19 and were different then the ones whose peripheral blood was analyed by qRT-PCR. Amongst Disease control subjects (n=3) who underwent bone marrow examination, two had adult onset immune thrombocytopenia and one had a suspicion of myelodysplastic syndrome which was reported to be normal.

Project description:The mechanism of autophagy can be triggered by phosphoramidon to ameliorate kidney fibrosis and inflammation. The precise targets of fibrosis and inflammation in chronic kidney disease (CKD) need further investigation. The purpose of this project is to development of potential therapeutic drugs for CKD treatment. The therapeutic targets might be identified from cellular signaling induced by phosphoramidon in the human kidney proximal tubular epithelial cell line (HK-2 cells).
