Project description:Available single-cell RNA-seq analyses have revealed that individual cells of the same type differ substantially in gene expression. We wonder whether glomerular mesangial cells, the cell type that support the unique structure of glomeruli, also exhibit big difference in gene expression among individual cells; and what biological information could be obtained from the single-mesangial cell RNA-seq data. Therefore, we isolated mouse glomeruli by Dynabead/magnetic concentration method, and digested them with enzymes to dissociate the cells. We loaded the single cell suspension to a Fluidigm C1 Single-Cell Auto Prep System for single cell cDNA preparation. The cDNA samples were analyzed with mesangial cell marker, Gata3,and the Gata3 positive samples were amplified and underwent sequecing using Illumina Highseq 2000 system.

Project description:HO-1 cells denote the cultured rat mesangial cells with heme oxygenase-1 knocked down by RNA interference (using lentiviral vector). GFP cells denote the cultured rat mesangial cells that are transfected with empty lentiviral vector containing GFP cassette. Cells are treated with hydrogen peroxide 100 micromolar for 2 hours, or without. RNA are then harvested for array analysis. Biological replicates are performed (two independent experiment sets).

Project description:There are 3 cell types in a glomerulus: podocytes, mesangial cells and endothelial cells. These cell types play distinct roles in the structure and functions of glomeruli. In order to profile the gene expression of single glomerular cells, we isolated mouse glomeruli by Dynabead/magnetic concentration method and digested them with enzymes to dissociate them into single cells. We loaded the single cell suspension to a Fluidigm C1 Single-Cell Auto Prep System for single cell cDNA preparation. We performed qPCR analyses of marker genes of podocytes (Npsh2, Synaptopodin, WT1), mesangial cells (Gata3, IGFbp5) and endothelial cells (CD31, Tie2) to determine the identity of each cDNA sample. To identify podocyte-specific genes, we mixed 15 mesangial cell cDNA samples and 15 endothelial cell cDNA samples and further divided into 3 aliquots as replicates for sequencing using Illumina HiSeq 2000 system. The resulting data are used to compare with that of podocytes in order to identify podocyte-specific genes.

Project description:Purpose: To study the pattern of transcriptomic changes during MSC differentiation into mesangial cells and to identify biomarkers or key genes involved in this differentiation. Methods: Differentiation of MSC into mesangial cells was induced by co-culturing with injured mesangial cells in trans-well dishes (n=3). Total RNA from co-cultured MSC at different time point were extracted before running RNA sequencing. Generated RNA-seq data was analysed. Results and conclusions: A systematic analysis has identified several monotonic pattern key genes (either ascending or descending). These identified descending monotonic key genes are related to stemness or regulation of cell cycle while ascending monotonic key genes are associated with the functions of mesangial cells.

Project description:we performed genome-wide transcriptome profiling in mesangial cells and tubular epithelial cells (TECs), which were stimulated by high glucose (HG) and detected the expression of inflammation associated genes. HG increased the mRNA expression of oxidative stress, inflammasome and mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) related genes in mesangial cells. Pro-inflammatory/Th1 gene expression was upregulated, but Th2 related gene expression was downregulated in mesangial cells. In TECs, HG stimulation increased pro-inflammatory/Th1/Th2 gene expression. mRNA profiles of human mesangial cells and tubular epithelial cells, which were stimuated HG for 24 hours or mannitol contorol.

Project description:Glomerular diseases are the leading cause of chronic kidney diseases with pathomechanisms largely unclear. It is known that ANGPT2 regulates endothelial cell homeostasis and function via TEK/TIE2 and its deregulation causes endothelial damage. We found that ANGPT2 is upregulated in glomerular diseases and wondered whether it has any effect on glomerular podocytes and mesangial cells given that they have no or low TEK expression. We treated podocytes and mesangial cells in culture with ANGPT2 and found no overt cellular changes. RNA-seq analysis showed that gene expression was altered in both podocytes and mesangial cells and that the regulated genes in the two cell types were fundamentally different. GO and KEGG analyses showed that the two groups of regulated genes were enriched in distinct processes and pathways. These results suggest that ANGPT2 exerts effects on both podocytes and mesangial cells and that increased ANGPT2 may be involved in glomerular injury by affecting podocytes and mesangial cells in addition to endothelial cells.
