Project description:Long-term peritoneal dialysis is associated with progressive fibrosis of the peritoneum. Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of mesothelial cells is an important mechanism involved in peritoneal fibrosis, and TGF-b1 is considered central in this process. We conducted network-based integrated analysis of transcriptomic data to systemically characterize the molecular signature of TGF-b1-stimulated human peritoneal mesothelial cells (HPMCs).

Project description:Peritoneal fibrosis is a major complication of long-term peritoneal dialysis (PD), leading to ultrafiltration failure and sometimes life threatening encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis. Fibrosis is driven by activated myofibroblasts that are derived, in part, from mesothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (MMT). We aimed to discover novel mediators of MMT and then experimentally exploit them to prevent peritoneal fibrosis. Using an antibody to HBME-1 and streptavidin nanobead technology, we first pioneered a novel method to purify rat mesothelial cells. After exposing mesothelial cells to transforming growth factor β1 (TGFβ1), we undertook RNAseq whole transcriptome analyses and outlined, the expression profile of sorted mesothelial cells at pre- and post- MMT.

Project description:Long-term peritoneal dialysis (PD) is associated with functional and structural alterations of the peritoneal membrane. Inflammation may be the key moment and consequently fibrosis, the end result of chronic inflammatory reaction. The objective of the study was to identify genes involved in peritoneal alterations during PD by comparing transcriptome of peritoneal cells in short- and long-term PD patients. Peritoneal effluent of the long-dwell of stable PD patients was centrifuged to obtain peritoneal cells. Gene expression profiling of peritoneal cells using microarray between short- and long-term PD patients was compared. Based on microarray analysis 31 genes for RT-qPCR validation were chosen. A 4-hour peritoneal equilibration test (PET) was performed on the day after the long dwell. Transport parameters and proteins appearance rates were assessed. Genes involved in the immune system process, immune response, cell activation, leuko- and lymphocyte activation were found to be substantially up-regulated in the long-term group. RT-qPCR validation showed higher expression of CD24 (CD24 molecule), LY9 (lymphocyte antigen 9 ), TNFRSF4 (tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily, member 4), CD79A (CD79a molecule, immunoglobulin-associated alpha), CCR7 (chemokine (C-C motif) receptor 7), CEACAM1 (carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 1) and IL2RA (interleukin 2 receptor, alpha) in long-term PD patients, CD24 having the best discrimination ability between short- and long-term treatment. A relationship between CD24 expression and genes for collagen and matrix formation was shown. Activation of CD24 provoked by pseudohypoxia due to extremely high glucose concentrations in dialysis solutions might play the key role in the development of peritoneal membrane alterations.

Project description:Peritoneal fibrosis is regard as a significant cause of the loss of peritoneal function, markedly limiting the application of peritoneal dialysis(PD). However, the pathogenesis of peritoneal fibrosis remains unclear. Tissue-derived extracellular vesicles(EVs) mediate intercellular communications and play a central role in organ fibrosis. We performed a proteomics profiling of EVs from normal peritoneum and PD-induced fibrotic peritoneum in mice.

Project description:Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is the worldwide recognized preferred dialysis treatment for children affected by end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). However, due to the unphysiological composition of PD fluids, the peritoneal membrane (PM) of these patients may undergo structural and functional alterations, which may cause fibrosis. Several factors may accelerate this process and primary kidney disease may have a causative role. In particular, patients affected by corticoresistant primary focal segmental glomerulosclerosis), a rare glomerular disease leading to nephrotic syndrome and ESKD, seem more prone to develop peritoneal fibrosis. The mechanism causing this predisposition is still unrecognized. To better define this condition, we carried out, for the first time, a new comprehensive comparative proteomic mass spectrometry analysis of mesothelial exosomes from peritoneal dialysis effluent (PDE) of 6 pediatric patients with focal segmental glomerular sclerosis (FSGS) versus 6 patients affected by other primary renal diseases (No FSGS). Our omic study demonstrated that, despite the high overlap in the protein milieu between the two study groups, machine learning allowed a complete distinction of the whole proteomic exosome mesothelial content of FSGS versus No FSGS (with 100% accuracy). Out of the 2490 identified proteins, 40% (995) were involved in epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)/fibrosis and in the transforming growth factor-β pathway. Additionally, the Weight Gene Co-expression Network Analysis algorithm identified that some of the discriminative proteins (TIMP1, CTHRC1, SPARC, CHMP4B, COL5A2, ANXA13, FNC2 and CENP-E) were also highly correlated to PD vintage, fibrosis, EMT and non-neoplastic PM disease. All together our data demonstrated that mesothelial cells of FSGS patients are more prone to activate a pro-fibrotic machinery with exosomes having a primary role in this process. Moreover, they indicated that identified FSGS-associated elements in mesothelial exosome protein could be employed as potential new biomarkers of mesothelial integrity. Finally, our results highlighted that in FSGS patients particular attention should be paid to use more biocompatible dialysis solution, reduce the length of time on PD and personalize PD regimens to minimize the risk of rapid loss of PM function or development of encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis.

Project description:Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is a successful renal replacement therapy for end-stage renal disease that effectively improves the quality of life. Long-term PD causes epithelial mesenchymal transformation (MMT) of peritoneal mesothelial cells, leading to peritoneal fibrosis which reduces the efficiency of PD. Macrophages are considered players in the onset and perpetuation of peritoneal injury. Yet, the mechanisms employed by macrophage-mesothelial cells communication to regulate peritoneal fibrosis are not fully elucidated resulting in lack of disease-modified drugs. This study analyzes the role of macrophage-mesothelial cell communication by intraperitoneal injection of macrophage derived exosomes in PD model rats. These results show that macrophages secrete exosomal miR-204-5p that directly targets Foxc1, leading to the activation of MMT in mesothelial cells. The data also shows that intraperitoneal injection of dissolved AS-IV can improve MMT by altering macrophage derived exosomal miRNAs. This study indicates that intercellular crosstalk between peritoneal macrophages and mesothelial cells is mediated by macrophage derived miR-204-5p-containing exosomes that control the MMT progression, providing AS-IV for prevention and treatment of PD induced peritoneal fibrosis. Our results demonstrate, for the first time, a novel role of the AS-IV on miR-204-5p/Foxc1/β-catenin axis in improving peritoneal fibrosis in vivo and vitro.

Project description:Chronic exposure to biological incompatibility of peritoneal dialysis solution is one of the principal causes of ultrafiltration failure (UF). However, the changes of peritoneal cell composition and molecular mechanism of peritoneal microenvironment after long-term PD are unclear. Single-cell RNA sequencing was performed to profile cell composition and transcriptome characteristics in effluent obtained from patients undergoing PD with short vintage (SV), long vintage without ultrafiltration failure (LV_NOT_UF), and long vintage with ultrafiltration failure (LV_UF). A total of 6 SV patients, 6 LV_NOT_UF patients, and 4 LV_UF patients were enrolled. The median PD duration of the three groups were 5 months (range:1.0–6.0 months), 137 months (range: 92–189 months) and 132 months (range: 120–161 months), with no significant differences in age (38.3 ± 21.5 years, 45.7 ± 10.6 years and 41.0 ± 16.7 years, P>0.05) and gender (male%: 33.3%, 50.0% and 25.0%, P>0.05). scRNA-seq data annotated 8 main cell types including epithelial-like mesothelial cells (E-MCs), mesenchymal-like mesothelial cells (M-MCs), fibroblast, plasma B cells, conventional dendritic cells, plasmacytoid dendritic cells, natural killer T cells, and myeloid cells. LV_UF patients showed higher proportion of E-MCs, which exhibited activated autophagy and had properties of both anti-inflammatory and pro-inflammatory, and neutrophil- and autophagy-related DEGs of E-MCs were upregulated in the LV_UF group. In contrast, the M-MCs and the AQP1 expression in the peritoneal mesenchyme were reduced in the LV_UF group compared to the other groups. The neutrophils in PD effluent were elevated in the LV_UF group, while the M2-like MRC1-macrophages gradually decreased from the SV, LV_NOT_UF to LV_UF group. Compared with the LV_NOT_UF group, the upregulated DEGs of monocytes/macrophages in the LV_UF group not only involved in pro-inflammatory response, but also promoted EMT progress. Additionally, neutrophils and monocytes/macrophages both interacted with MCs. Our study uncovers peritoneal different individual cell populations and cellular functions in different stages of PD which indicates the dynamic changes of microenvironments of peritoneal membrane. These findings provide new insights into the novel roles of mesothelial cells and inflammatory cells in UF.

Project description:Local factors produced in the tissue microenvironment play essential roles in promoting the ontogeny and phenotype of tissue resident macrophages (TRM). In the peritoneal cavity, large peritoneal macrophages (LPM) are the dominant TRMs that functionally mediate type 2 immunity, facilitate tissue repair of the mesothelium, and protect against peritoneal fibrosis. It is established that retinoic acid derived from the omentum induces transcription factor Gata6 expression in LPMs, which in turn regulates gene expression of factors that define peritoneal macrophages. It is still unclear whether retinoic acid is the sole local factor that regulates Gata6 expression in LPMs. Mesothelial cells line the entire peritoneal cavity and produce a protective, non-adhesive barrier against injury, at least in part by recruiting immune cells with secreted cytokines, such as M-CSF. We hypothesized that secreted factors from peritoneal mesothelial cells are also responsible for regulating LPM development including both ontogeny and function. Due to their immediate proximity to the peritoneal cavity, we propose that mesothelial cells can produce and secrete proteins into the peritoneum to maintain Gata6 expression by LPMs. To identify secreted factors that are highly and specifically expressed in mesothelial cells, we harvested primary mesothelial cells from 10-week-old C57BL/6 mice using FACS selection (CD45- PDPN+ GPM6a+). Total RNA was isolated from these cells and subjected to RNA-seq analysis after depletion of ribosomal RNA.

Project description:Loss of ultrafiltration capacity in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients is often associated with peritoneal vascular changes, manifest as diabetes-like vasculopathy and angiogenesis. The endothelial monolayer lining the vessel lumen controls vessel barrier function and thereby influences peritoneal substrate transport and ultrafiltration. The dipeptide alanyl-glutamine (AlaGln) has recently shown cytoprotective effects when added to PD fluid, including preservation of mesothelial cells in vitro (Kratochwill et al., Nephrol Dial Transplant, 2012, doi:10.1093/ndt/gfr459) and attenuation of the exuberant angiogenesis seen in long-term rodent models of PD (Ferrantelli et al., Kidney international, 2016, doi:10.1016/j.kint.2015.12.005). These effects have been reflected in early phase clinical trials as restoration of effluent cell stress responses and improved biomarkers of peritoneal health (Kratochwill et al., PLoS One, 2016, doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0165045; Vychytil et al., Kidney international, 2018, doi:10.1016/j.kint.2018.08.031). In a randomized clinical phase II trial, 8 weeks treatment with AlaGln in PD fluid decreased peritoneal protein loss. This clinically important effect might be explained by preserved peritoneal membrane and vessel integrity, but the role of AlaGln in preservation of peritoneal endothelial cell function remains unclear. In this study, we investigated to what extent in vivo observed biological processes and pathways are replicated by in vitro exposure of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) to conventional PD fluid. HUVECs were exposed to experimental solutions for up to 24 h. All test fluids were sterile-filtered before usage. Each experiment consisted of three independent samples in biological replicates on separate culture plates. For PD fluid incubation, cells were first exposed for 1 h to pure glucose-based PD fluid (Dianeal PD4 3.86% glucose, Baxter, Castlebar, Ireland), or to the same PD fluid supplemented with AlaGln dipeptide (8 mM, Dipeptiven; Fresenius Kabi, Bad Homburg, Germany), or to normal medium without growth factors as control. Cells were subsequently exposed for 24 h to the above solutions diluted 1:1 with culture medium and brought to 2% FCS. Cells were then washed three times (250 mM sucrose, 10 mM Tris/HCl, pH 7) and lysed in 125 µL per well of lysis buffer (30 mM Tris, pH 8.5, 7 M urea, 2 M thiourea, 4% CHAPS, 1 mM EDTA, one tablet of Complete Protease Inhibitor (Roche, Basel; Switzerland) per 100 ml, and one tablet of PhosStop Protease Inhibitor (Roche) per 100 mL). Total protein concentration was determined with the 2D-Quant kit (GE Healthcare, Uppsala, Sweden) per manufacturer’s manual. Lysates were stored at -80°C until further processing. We investigated the molecular mechanisms of endothelial cell pathology during in vivo and in vitro PD fluid exposure by proteomic and bioinformatic analysis of the endothelial cell response to hyperglycemic stress, integrating current understanding of PD-related cellular injury and stress responses (Bender et al., Nephrol Dial Transplant, 2011, doi:10.1093/ndt/gfq484; Kratochwill et al., BioMed research international, 2015, doi:10.1155/2015/628158; Kratochwill et al., J Proteome Res, 2009, doi:10.1021/pr800916s; Lechner et al., J Proteome Res, 2010, doi:10.1021/pr9011574). We then evaluated the effect of AlaGln addition to conventional PD fluid on these parameters in endothelial cells. This strategy allowed characterization of endothelial cell injury and stress responses during exposure to conventional hyperglycemic PD fluid, and their modulation by added AlaGln.

Project description:Expression data from peritoneal biopsies of patients with encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis (EPS), patients undergoing first implantation of a peritoneal dialysis catheter (PD), and patients undergoing abdominal surgery for non-peritoneal conditions (controls) We used microarrays to determine the transcriptional profiles of peritoneal membrane in patients with encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis (EPS), patients undergoing first insertion of a peritoneal dialysis cathetier (PD), and uremic patients without history of PD or EPS, undergoing abdominal surgery for non-peritoneal problems (CON) Encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis (EPS) is a devastating complication of peritoneal dialysis (PD), characterized by marked inflammation and severe fibrosis of the peritoneum, and associated with high morbidity and mortality. EPS can occur years after termination of PD and, in severe cases, leads to intestinal obstruction and ileus requiring surgical intervention. Despite ongoing research, the pathogenesis of EPS remains unclear. We performed a global transcriptome analysis of peritoneal tissue specimens from EPS patients, PD patients without EPS, and uremic patients without history of PD or EPS (Uremic). Unsupervised and supervised bioinformatics analysis revealed distinct transcriptional patterns that discriminated these three clinical groups. The analysis identified a signature of 219 genes expressed differentially in EPS as compared to PD and Uremic groups. Canonical pathway analysis of differentially expressed genes showed enrichment in several pathways, including antigen presentation, dendritic cell maturation, B cell development, chemokine signaling and humoral and cellular immunity (P value <0.05). Further interactive network analysis depicted effects of EPS-associated genes on networks linked to inflammation, immunological response, and cell proliferation. Gene expression changes were confirmed by qRT-PCR for a subset of the differentially expressed genes. EPS patient tissues exhibited elevated expression of genes encoding sulfatase1, thrombospondin 1, fibronectin 1 and alpha smooth muscle actin, among many others, while in EPS and PD tissues mRNAs encoding leptin and retinol-binding protein 4 were markedly down-regulated, compared to Uremic group patients. Immunolocalization of Collagen 1 alpha 1 revealed that Col1a1 protein was predominantly expressed in the submesothelial compact zone of EPS patient peritoneal samples, whereas PD patient peritoneal samples exhibited homogenous Col1a1 staining throughout the tissue samples. The results are compatible with the hypothesis that encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis is a distinct pathological process from the simple peritoneal fibrosis that accompanies all PD treatment. Total RNA was isolated from frozen peritoneal biopsy specimens obtained at time of surgery. RNA was hybridized to Affymetrix arrays, and analyzed. Select transcripts were subjected to validation by rt-pcr and by immunodetection.
