Project description:Alport Syndrome (AS) is a rare genetic disease with impaired production of collagen type IV alpha 3, 4 and 5 chains in the glomerular basement membranes (GBM), which results amongst others in progressive loss of kidney function. In AS, abnormalities in the GBM and associated podocyte detachment may potentially result from the dysregulation of sphingolipid metabolism. Here we investigated whether renal sphingomyelin phosphodiesterase acid-like 3b (SMPDL3b) overexpression modulates the generation of sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) and contributes to renal failure in Col4a3 knockout mice, a mouse model of AS. We found a 3-fold increase in SMPDL3b expression in glomeruli and murine podocytes isolated from Col4a3 knockout mice. Increased SMPDL3b expression occurred in association with increased glomerular S1P levels, while podocyte specific Smpdl3b deletion in Col4a3 knockout mice was sufficient to restore S1P levels and to reduce proteinuria and podocyte foot process but not sufficient to protect from renal failure. Thus, podocyte S1P may be a key modulator of proteinuria and podocyte integrity in AS. Our study in experimental AS suggests that SMPDL3b-derived S1P may dissociate proteinuria from renal failure, and suggests that improvement of glomerular structure and function may not always translate in protection from CKD progression in AS.

Project description:Loss or reduction in function of tumor suppressor genes contributes to tumorigenesis. We identified a novel homozygous deletion of DACH1 in gliomas. We generated U87TR-Da glioma cell line, where DACH1 expression could be activated by exposure of cells to doxycycline, and examined changing global gene expression by DACH1 expression. Expression of DACH1 in U87TR-Da cells can be induced by exposure of the cells to doxycycline. We analyzed gene expression profiles of DACH1-induced/repressed U87TR-Da cells. And we also compared gene expression profiles of DACH1-induced/repressed U87TR-Da cells under different culture condition, DMEMF(serum-containing) and NBE(serum-free)

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: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:The vertebrate homologues of Drosophila dachsund, DACH1 and DACH2, have been implicated as important regulatory genes in development. DACH1 plays a role in retinal and pituitary precursor cell proliferation and DACH2 plays a specific role in myogenesis. DACH proteins contain a domain (DS-domain) that is conserved with the proto-oncogenes Ski and Sno. Since the Ski/Sno proto-oncogenes repress AP-1 and SMAD signaling, we hypothesized that DACH1 might play a similar cellular function. Herein, DACH1 was found to be expressed in breast cancer cell lines and to inhibit TGF-beta induced apoptosis. DACH1 repressed TGF-beta induction of AP-1 and Smad signaling in gene reporter assays and repressed endogenous TGF-beta responsive genes by microarray analyses. DACH1 bound to endogenous NCoR and Smad4 in cultured cells and DACH1 co-localized with NCoR in nuclear dot-like structures. NCoR enhanced DACH1 repression and the repression of TGF-beta-induced AP-1 or Smad-signaling by DACH1 required the DACH1 DS domain. The DS-domain of DACH was sufficient for NCoR-binding at a Smad4-binding site. Smad4 was required for DACH1 repression of Smad signaling. In Smad4 null HTB-134 cells, DACH1 inhibited the activation of SBE-4 reporter activity induced by Smad2 or Smad3 only in the presence of Smad4. DACH1 participates in the negative regulation of TGF-beta signaling by interacting with NCoR and Smad4. Keywords: other
