Project description:The endogenous repair process of the mammalian kidney allows rapid recovery after acute kidney injury (AKI) through robust proliferation of tubular epithelial cells. There is currently limited understanding of which transcriptional regulators activate these repair programs and how transcriptional deregulation leads to maladaptive repair. Here we investigate the existence of enhancer dynamics in the regenerating mouse kidney.

Project description:Acute kidney injury (AKI) have been thought to be reversible condition, however, emerging evidence demonstrated association between AKI and subsequent development of irreversible fibrosis and chronic kidney disease. In the present study, since recovery of AKI depends on renal tubular regeneration, factors expressing in renal tubules in adaptive or maladaptive repair process were investigated to predict reversibility of kidney injury. In the kidney of female F344 rats subjected to ischemia/reperfusion (I/R), regenerative tubules and dilated tubules were observed at 3 and 7 days after I/R. In fibrotic areas of the kidney of male SD rats subjected to I/R, renal tubules were dilated or atrophied. From microarray data of regenerative tubules, survivin, sex-determining region Y (SRY)-box 9 (SOX9), and CD44 were extracted as factors possibly relating to tubular regeneration or fibrosis. Immunohistochmical analysis demonstrated that survivin and SOX9 expressed in regenerative tubules, while SOX9 also expressed in renal tubules in fibrotic area, indicating that survivin and SOX9 contribute renal tubular regeneration, but sustained SOX9 expression may lead fibrosis. CD44 expressed in dilated tubules at day 3 and 7, and tubules in fibrotic area, suggesting that CD44 expressed in maladaptive tubules. These information will be helpful to consider reversibility of kidney injury.

Project description:Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a frequent and challenging clinical condition associated with high morbidity and mortality. In AKI, renal tubular epithelial cells (TECs) are a primary site of damage, and recovery from AKI depends on TEC plasticity. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying adaptation and maladaptation of TECs in AKI remain largely unclear. Here, our analyses of mouse kidney tubuloids showed that TEC injury resulted in activation of the glucocortiocoid receptor by endogenous glucocorticoids, which aggravated tubular damage. The detrimental effect of endogenous glucocorticoids on injured TECs was exacerbated by the administration of the widely clinically used synthetic glucocorticoid, dexamethasone, as indicated by experiments in mouse kidney tubuloids. Mechanistically, studies in mouse tubuloids demonstrated that glucocorticoid receptor signaling in injured TECs orchestrated a maladaptive transcriptional program to hinder DNA repair and to amplify injury-induced DNA double-strand break formation, as well as to dampen mTOR activity and mitochondrial bioenergetics. This study identifies glucocortiocoid receptor activation as a mechanism of epithelial maladaptation, which is functionally important for acute kidney injury.

Project description:Mammalian kidney has very limited ability to repair or regenerate after acute kidney injury (AKI). The maladaptive repair of AKI promotes the progression to chronic kidney disease (CKD). Therefore, it is extremely urgent to explore new strategies to promote the repair/regeneration of injured renal tubules after AKI. It has been shown that hypoxia induces heart regeneration in adult mice. However, it is unknown whether hypoxia can induce kidney regeneration after AKI. In this study, we used a prolyl hydroxylase domain inhibitor (PHDI), MK-8617, to mimic hypoxia condition and found that MK-8617 significantly ameliorates ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) induced acute kidney injury. We then showed that MK-8617 dramatically facilitates renal regeneration via promoting the proliferation of injured renal proximal tubular cells (RPTCs) after IRI-induced AKI. We then performed bulk mRNA sequencing and discovered that multiple nephrogenesis- related genes were significantly upregulated with MK-8617 pretreatment. Furthermore, we showed that MK-8617 may alleviate proximal tubule injury via stabilizing HIF-1α protein specifically in renal proximal tubular cells. We also demonstrated that MK-8617 promotes the reprogramming of renal proximal tubular cells to Sox9+ renal progenitor cells, and the regeneration of renal proximal tubules. In summary, we discovered that inhibition of prolyl hydroxylase improves renal proximal tubule regeneration after IRI-induced AKI via promoting the reprogramming of renal proximal tubular cells to Sox9+ renal progenitor cells.

Project description:Microarray analysis of human kidneys with acute kidney injury (AKI) has been limited because such kidneys are seldom biopsied. However, all kidney transplants experience AKI, and early kidney transplants without rejection are an excellent model for human AKI: they are screened to exclude chronic kidney disease, frequently biopsied, and have extensive follow-up. We used histopathology and microarrays to compare indication biopsies from 28 transplants with AKI to 11 pristine protocol biopsies of stable transplants. Kidneys with AKI showed increased expression of 394 injury-repair response associated transcripts, including many known epithelial injury molecules (e.g. ITGB6, LCN2), tissue remodeling molecules (e.g. VCAN), and inflammation molecules (S100A8, ITGB3). Many other genes also predict the phenotype, depending on statistical filtering rules, including AKI biomarkers as HAVCR1 and IL18. Most mouse orthologs of the top injury-repair transcripts were increased in published mouse AKI models. Pathway analysis of the injury-repair transcripts revealed similarities to cancer, development, and cell movement. The injury-repair transcript score AKI kidneys correlated with reduced function, future recovery, brain death, and need for dialysis, but not future graft loss. In contrast, histologic features of "acute tubular injury" did not correlate with function or with the molecular changes. Thus the injury-repair associated transcripts represent a massive coordinate injury-repair response of kidney parenchyma to AKI, similar to mouse AKI models, and provide an objective measure for assessing the severity of AKI in kidney biopsies and validation for the use of many AKI biomarkers. AKI biopsies sample names and CEL files are from GSE21374. All consenting renal transplant patients undergoing biopsies for cause as standard of care between 09/2004 and 10/2007 at the university of Alberta or between 11/2006 and 02/2007 at the University of Illinois were included in the analysis. In addition to the cores required for standard histopathology, we collected one core for gene expression studies. the relationship between gene expression in the biopsy and subsequent graft loss was analyzed. This dataset is part of the TransQST collection.

Project description:PTBA has been published to increase renal tubular cell proliferation, increased survival, and increased renal functional recovery in fish and various models of murine models of acute kidney injury. Immunohistological analyses suggested increased cell proliferation is accompanied by increased epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition in the RTECs. In order to elucidate pathways responsible for the increased repair response after compound treatment, larval zebrafish were given AKI and treated with PTBA analogue, UPHD25 or DMSO. Results suggests that epithelial-related genes were downregulated while mesenchymal-related genes were upregulated with injury and compound treatment. Results further validate our immunohistological finding that our compound increase post-AKI repair by increasing EMT in renal tubular cells.

Project description:The kidney has large regenerative capacity that is impeded when injured renal tubular epithelial cells (TECs) undergo SNAI1-driven partial epithelial mesenchymal transition (pEMT). Here we investigate the role of IL11 in TEC pEMT and kidney repair. Wild-type mice with acute kidney injury (AKI) upregulate IL11 in TECs triggering an ERK/P90RSK/GSK3β axis of SNAI1 expression leading to impaired renal function, which is abrogated in Il11 null mice. In mouse models of AKI, a neutralizing IL11 antibody promotes kidney regeneration, while attenuating pEMT, fibrosis and kidney dysfunction. In TECs, TGFβ1 induces autocrine IL11/ERK-dependent pEMT leading to paracrine, IL11-mediated fibroblast activation. Mice with TEC-specific deletion of Il11ra1 are protected from pEMT, inflammation, fibrosis and renal failure. In a mouse model of chronic kidney disease, administration of anti-IL11 reverses fibrosis, regenerates kidney parenchyma and restores renal function. Therapeutic inhibition of IL11 signaling appears permissive for promoting kidney regeneration and improving kidney function.
