Project description:Modeling oxidative injury response in human kidney organoids
| PRJNA755987 | ENA
Project description:BackgroundHemolysis occurs in many injury settings and can trigger disease processes. In the kidney, extracellular hemoglobin can induce damage via several mechanisms. These include oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, and inflammation, which promote fibrosis and chronic kidney disease. Understanding the pathophysiology of these injury pathways offers opportunities to develop new therapeutic strategies.MethodsTo model hemolysis-induced kidney injury, human kidney organoids were treated with hemin, an iron-containing porphyrin, that generates reactive oxygen species. In addition, we developed an induced pluripotent stem cell line expressing the biosensor, CytochromeC-GFP (CytoC-GFP), which provides a real-time readout of mitochondrial morphology, health, and early apoptotic events.ResultsWe found that hemin-treated kidney organoids show oxidative damage, increased expression of injury markers, impaired functionality of organic anion and cation transport and undergo fibrosis. Injury could be detected in live CytoC-GFP organoids by cytoplasmic localization of fluorescence. Finally, we show that 4-(phenylthio)butanoic acid, an HDAC inhibitor with anti-fibrotic effects in vivo, reduces hemin-induced human kidney organoid fibrosis.ConclusionThis work establishes a hemin-induced model of kidney organoid injury. This platform provides a new tool to study the injury and repair response pathways in human kidney tissue and will assist in the development of new therapeutics.

Project description:Maximizing the potential of human kidney organoids for drug testing, regenerative medicine and to model development and disease requires addressing cell immaturity, the lack of a branching collecting system and the off target cell types. Here we establish methods to independently generate the two kidney progenitor cell populations – metanephric mesenchyme and ureteric bud. Combining these two progenitor cell types results in organoids with an improved branched collecting system. We also identified the hormones aldosterone and arginine vasopressin as critical to promote maturation of collecting duct cell types. The resulting organoids contain the full range of epithelial cells in the nephron, including principal and intercalated cells. By scRNA-seq, we demonstrate superior proximal tubule maturation and reduced off-target cell populations using this protocol.

Project description:Acute kidney injury (AKI) remains a major global healthcare problem and there is a need to develop human-based models to study AKI in vitro. Towards this goal, we have characterized induced pluripotent stem cell-derived human kidney organoids and their response to cisplatin, a chemotherapeutic drug that induces AKI and preferentially damages the proximal tubule. We found that a single treatment with 50 µM cisplatin induces HAVCR1 and CXCL8 expression, DNA damage (γH2AX) and cell death in the organoids in a dose-dependent manner but greatly impairs organoid viability. DNA damage was not specific to the proximal tubule but also affected the distal tubule and interstitial cell populations. This lack of specificity correlated with low expression of the proximal tubule-specific SLC22A2/OCT2 transporter for cisplatin. To improve viability, we developed a repeated low-dose regimen of 4x 5 µM cisplatin over 7 days and found this causing less toxicity while still inducing a robust AKI response that included secretion of known AKI biomarkers and inflammatory cytokines. This work validates the use of human kidney organoids to model aspects of AKI, with the potential to identify new AKI biomarkers and develop better therapies.

Project description:Kidney organoids are emerging as an increasingly applied model system to hold great promise for transplantation to individuals with end-stage renal disease and as a useful tool for kidney research. Multiple iPSC-derived renal organoids have been established to understand kidney development and disease. However, few disease models originated from adult renal tissue with fully mature cell fates have been set up to recapitulate kidney inflammation or fibrosis. Here we created a novel organoid model that faithfully representing the cellular state of inflammatory response during the progression of renal disease upon TNFα exposure. scRNA-seq showed signatured inflammatory chemokines, cytokines and inflammation-associated signaling pathways were activated in TNFα-treatment organoids together with injury-associated markers such as LCN2 and CLU. Donor age is associated with TNFα-induced inflammatory reaction in organoids. Kidney organoids from young donors showed more transcriptional changes by down-regulation of TGFβ and extracellular matrix genes. In summary, we established an in vitro TNFα-treated kidney organoid model that representing the cellular state of the inflammatory response during renal disease progression and provided a novel tool for studying inflammation-related kidney disease and drug discovery.

Project description:This study used scRNA-seq to characterise the transcriptome in 26 day-old iPSC-derived kidney organoids, treated with TGFB1, the EzH2 inhibitor GSK343, a combination of both or a vehicle control for 48 hours (days 24-26) before harvesting. 2 organoids per condition were pooled and dissociated using a cold-active protease. Nuclei were extracted and profiled using the 10X Genomics Single-cell 3' V3 kits. Libraries were sequenced using paired-end reads on an Illumina NextSeq 500. Initial processing was performed using CellRanger v3.1.0 (10X Genomics).
