Next Generation Sequencing of control (Untreated), PAN injured and Adriamycin injured human podocytes

ABSTRACT: Purpose: Next-generation sequencing (NGS) was used to identify cellular pathways and genes through systems-based analysis. The goals of this study are to identify NGS-derived transcriptome profiling (RNA-seq) in control (untreated) and Injured (PAN and Adriamycin) podocyte. These high throughput data were further validated through qRT–PCR methods to confirm the cellular pathways and genes affected due to the podocyte injury. Methods: Human podocytes were differentiated for 14 days by thermoswitching from 33⁰C to 37⁰C and removal of growth factors, insulin-transferrin-selenium from the medium. These podocytes were incubated 4hour in serum free RPMI medium and injury was induced by using PAN (100μg/ml) and Adriamycin (0.25μg/ml) treatment for 48 hours.Further, podocytes were processed for RNA isolation and submitted to Medical University of South Carolina Sequencing Core facility for RNA-Seq. All the experiments were performed in triplicates. Conclusions: Our study is first to describe the detailed analysis of PAN and Adriamycin induced podocyte transcriptomes using the RNA-seq technology. A comparative analysis of the differential expression profile was obtained between control vs PAN injured podocytes, and control vs Adriamycin injured podocytes. Complex genetic network and genes effected due to the injury will provide a platform to define biological pathways participate during podocytes injury process.

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
