RNAseq of renal CD64+CD11b+F4/80hi from adult mice after cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: We use bulk RNA sequencing of sorted cells to characterize the gene expression profiles of renal MHCII+/-D11b+F4/80hi cells 72 hours after cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury (AKI). F4/80hi cells are activated after cisplatin induced AKI and start to downregulate MHCII on transcriptional level. Downregulation of MHCII is probably caused by a downregulation/inhibition of its most important transcriptional activator Ciita
Project description:We use bulk RNA sequencing of sorted cells to characterize the gene expression profiles of renal dendritic cell (DC) subsets, cDC1 and cDC2, as well as MHCII+CD64+ F4/80hi and MHCII+CD64+ CD11bhi cells. Splenic DCs and red pulp macrophages serve as reference populations for a macrophage-like or DC-like phenotype. By sorting YFP+/YFP- F4/80hi or YFP+/YFP- CD11bhi cells from Clec9a-Cre Rosa-YFP mice we aim to reveal transcriptional differences between YFP-labelled and unlabelled cells. We showed that F4/80hi cells resemble macrophages on a transcriptional level, despite their DC origin, and that renal CD11bhi cells are a transcriptionally unique subset. However, we were not able to reveal differences between YFP+ and YFP- populations.

Project description:Background – Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a devastating clinical condition affecting at least two-thirds of critically ill patients and among these patients is associated with a greater than 60% risk of mortality. Kidney mononuclear phagocytes (MP) are necessary for pathogenesis and healing in mouse models of AKI and thus have been the subject of investigation as potential targets for clinical interventions. Methods and Results – We have determined that, after injury, F4/80Hi-expressing kidney resident macrophages (KRM) are a distinct cellular subpopulation that does not differentiate from non-resident infiltrating MP. However, if KRM are depleted using polyinosinic:polycytidylic acid (poly I:C), they can be reconstituted from bone marrow derived precursors. Further, KRM lack major histocompatibility complex class II (MHCII) expression before post-parturition day 7 (P7) but upregulate it over the next 14 days. This MHCII- KRM phenotype reappears after injury. RNA sequencing shows injury causes transcriptional reprogramming of KRM to more closely resemble that found at P7. Post-injury KRM are also enriched in Wingless-type MMTV integration site family (Wnt) signaling, indicating a pathway vital for mouse and human kidney development is active. Conclusions – These data indicate that mechanisms involved in kidney development may be active after injury in KRM.
Project description:During synovial tissue homeostasis, both monocyte-derived F4/80int, and self-renewing F4/80hi tissue-resident, macrophage populations were identified. In contrast, in HUPO mice, decreased synovial tissue-resident macrophages preceded chronic arthritis, opened a niche permitting the influx of activated monocytes, which differentiated into F4/80hi macrophages.

Project description:Acute kidney injury and nephrotoxicity are important clinical side effects of cisplatin. Thus, the mechanisms of this disease, and potential treatment options are important to understand in their entity. Here, we analyzed the proteome of cisplatin induced acute kidney injury in a mouse model. Functionally we found that calorie restriction was able to completely blunt Cisplatin induced AKI, and hypoxia ameliorated cCisplatin induced AKI. To investigate the mechanism for this in high throughput, we performed label-free single-shot proteomic analyses of these kidneys.Acute kidney injury and nephrotoxicity are important clinical side effects of cisplatin.
