Project description:Podocytes, highly differentiated glomerular epithelial cells, are essential for the maintenance of glomerular filtration barrier. Podocyte dysfunction in podocytes is a major determinant of proteinuric kidney disease. By RNA sequencing analysis in ADR-treated podocytes with or without MYDGF overexpression, we observed the significant changes of genes important in regulating cell cycle in podocytes with ADR treatment.

Project description:We performed single-cell sequencing to characterize the cell types that are present in human induced pluripotent stem cell derived (iPS) kidney organoids and their transcriptional profile. Furthermore, using bulk RNA sequencing we compared the transcriptional profile of kidney organoid derived podocytes from a wildtype iPS line, an iPS line with 2 mutations in podocin (NPHS2) which causes clinical manifestation of nephrotic syndrome and an iPS line with one of these mutations repaired which causes no clinical symptoms. For reference and comparison we took along human in vivo glomeruli and a human conditionally immortalized podocyte cell line.

Project description:In the context of human disease, the mechanisms whereby transcription factors reprogram gene expression in reparative responses to injury are not well understood. We have studied the mechanisms of transcriptional reprogramming in disease using murine kidney podocytes as a model for tissue injury. Podocytes are a crucial component of glomeruli, the filtration units of each nephron. Podocyte injury is the initial event in many processes that lead to End Stage Kidney Disease. FOXC2 is a transcription factor known to regulate gene expression in podocytes. FOXC2 and WT1 are both required for podocyte differentiation. Using murine models and human kidney organoids, we investigated FOXC2-mediated transcriptional reprogramming during the course of podocyte injury. Correlating FOXC2 and WT1 ChIP-seq analyses demonstrated that they co-bind many genes expressed in podocytes. Reprogramming the transcriptome involved highly dynamic changes in the binding of FOXC2 and WT1 to target genes during a reparative injury response.

Project description:Podocytes, together with glomerular endothelial cells, form the kidney filtration barrier. Loss of podocyte function leads to proteinuria and end-stage renal disease. Podocytes are damaged by various diseases. How they respond to damage-associated molecular patterns is however incompletely understood. MyD88 is the central adaptor protein downstream of Toll-like receptor (TLR) / interleukin-1 (IL-1) signaling and key to the initiation of inflammatory responses.

Project description:Glomerular podocytes are highly differentiated cells that are key components of the kidney filtration units. The podocyte cytoskeleton builds the basis for the dynamic podocyte cytoarchitecture and plays a central role for proper podocyte function. Recent studies implicate that immunosuppressive agents including the mTOR-inhibitor everolimus have a protective role directly on the stability of the podocyte cytoskeleton. To elucidate mechanisms underlying mTOR-inhibitor mediated cytoskeletal rearrangements, we carried out microarray gene expression studies to identify target genes and corresponding pathways in response to everolimus. We analyzed the effect of everolimus in a puromycin aminonucleoside experimental in vitro model of podocyte injury. Upon treatment with puromycin aminonucleoside, microarray analysis revealed gene clusters involving cytoskeletal-associated pathways, adhesion, migration and extracellular matrix composition to be affected. Everolimus is capable of protecting podocytes from injury, both on the transcriptome and protein level. Rescued genes included TUBB2B and DCDC2, both involved in microtubule structure formation in neuronal cells but not identified in podocytes so far. Confirming gene expression data, Western-blot analysis in cultured podocytes showed an increase of TUBB2B and DCDC2 protein after everolimus treatment, and immunohistochemistry in healthy control kidneys confirmed a podocyte-specific expression. Microtubule-inhibitor experiments led to a maldistribution of TUBB2B and DCDC2 as well as an aberrant reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton. Tubb2bbrdp/brdp mice showed a delay in glomerular podocyte and capillary development. Taken together, our study suggests that off-target, non-immune mediated effects of the mTOR-inhibitor everolimus on the podocyte cytoskeleton might involve regulation of microtubules, revealing a potential novel role of TUBB2B and DCDC2 in glomerular podocyte development We analyzed the effect of everolimus on gene expression in a puromycin aminonucleoside experimental in vitro model of podocyte injury using microarrays

Project description:Transcriptomes of differentiated cells of the conditionally immortalized mouse podocyte cell line SVI (Schiwek et al., Kidney Int. 66: 91-101, 2004) were determined as described in Kabgani et al. (PLoS One 7:e34907, 2012). The transcriptomes of the podocyte cell line were mapped on a protein-protein interaction network of the podocyte (PodNet). Together with other transcriptomes taken from GEO, we analyzed differential gene regulation and differential regulation of protein-protein interactions between cultured podocytes and differentiated in vivo podocytes. Three independent batches were used.

Project description:Podocyte effacement and loss characterizes glomerulopathies such as diabetic nephropathy, lupus, and glomerular toxicity. Human primary podocyte-like epithelial cells cultured from urine (ECU) were characterized as a window to understand podocyte regeneration in these glomerulopathies. Cytokines TNF, and VEGF stimulated regrowth, whereas FGF-1 and IL1 inhibited growth, consistent with other podocyte or parietal epithelial cell models. Review of published micrographs indicated that podocyte foot processes in rodent kidneys interdigitated exclusively with foot processes from other cells, suggesting podocytes practice self-avoidance. In culture, ECU avoided close interactions with other cells arising from the same clone, until enough cells grew for the culture to become confluent. In contrast, ECU derived from multiple clones associated actively to form contiguous monolayers. Gene expression profiling of eight clonal ECU colonies using RNA sequencing revealed that each colony expressed a highly variable profile of the 53 Protocadherin genes. Variable combinations of the 53 Protocadherin PCDHA-, PCDHB-, and PCDHG- gene products are known to act homophilically to direct self-avoidance interactions in human neurons, so PCDH- genes are postulated to govern self-avoidance similarly in podocytes. Such protocadherin profiles could be considered cell names. Transcriptional profiles of ECUs suggest they may represent intermediate stages of Parietal Epithelial Cells (PECs) differentiating into podocytes. They further suggest that each podocyte practices self-avoidance, interdigitating selectively with other cells in the glomerulus. To enable further investigation of multi-clonal podocyte interactions, five podocyte clones were immortalized using temperature-sensitive SV40 Large T antigen. These results suggest that non-self interdigitation of new podocytes with remnant podocytes may facilitate replacement of dying podocytes and re-establishment of a functional filtration barrier.
