Resident Macrophage Subpopulations Occupy Distinct Microenvironments in the Kidney

ABSTRACT: The kidney contains a population of resident macrophages from birth that expands as it grows and forms a contiguous network throughout the tissue. Kidney resident macrophages (KRMs) are important in homeostasis and the response to acute kidney injury (AKI). While the kidney contains many microenvironments, it is unknown whether KRMs are a heterogeneous population differentiated by function and location. We combined single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq), spatial transcriptomics, flow cytometry, and immunofluorescence imaging to localize, characterize, and validate KRM populations during quiescence and following 19 minutes of bilateral ischemic kidney injury. scRNAseq and spatial transcriptomics revealed seven distinct KRM subpopulations, which are organized into zones corresponding to regions of the nephron. Each subpopulation was identifiable by a unique transcriptomic signature suggesting distinct functions. Specific protein markers were identified for two clusters allowing analysis by flow cytometry or immunofluorescence imaging. Following injury, the original localization of each subpopulation is lost, either from changing locations or transcriptomic signatures. The original spatial distribution of KRMs is not fully restored for at least 28 days post-injury. The change in KRM localization confirms a long hypothesized dysregulation of the local immune system following acute injury and may explain the increased risk for chronic kidney disease.

Resident Macrophages Reprogram Toward a Developmental State After Acute Kidney Injury

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.

Human and Murine Kidneys Contain Transcriptionally and Spatially Orthologous Resident Macrophage Subpopulations in Acute Kidney Injury

Project description:Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a major health burden in the United States. Macrophages have been shown to mediate AKI in murine models. Murine kidneys contain multiple subpopulations of kidney resident macrophages (KRM) that are transcriptionally and spatially distinct. We hypothesized the human kidney contains orthologous KRM subpopulations, both transcriptionally and spatially. We utilized kidney sections from donors diagnosed with mild to moderate AKI in order to increase the translatability of murine research to clinical settings. We used spatial transcriptomics and single cell RNA sequencing to identify five distinct human KRM subpopulations. Using the AddModuleScore function in Seurat, we were able to compare the murine KRM transcriptional profiles from pre and post-AKI to the human KRM subpopulations. As a result, we identified four orthologous to known murine KRM subpopulations. The remaining population was identified in the kidney cortex and expresses a profile similar to activate microglia, the resident macrophage population in the brain. Again, we used AddModuleScore to determine a set of marker genes that will allow for the identification of KRM subsets across species and injury.

Cx3cr1 controls kidney resident macrophage heterogeneity

Project description:Kidney macrophages are comprised of both monocyte-derived and tissue resident populations; however, the heterogeneity of kidney macrophages and factors that regulate their heterogeneity are poorly understood. Herein, we performed single cell RNA sequencing (scRNAseq), fate mapping, and parabiosis to define the cellular heterogeneity of kidney macrophages in healthy mice. Our data indicate that healthy mouse kidneys contain four major subsets of monocytes and two major subsets of kidney resident macrophages (KRM) including a population with enriched Ccr2 expression, suggesting monocyte origin. Surprisingly, fate mapping data using the newly developed Ms4a3Cre Rosa Stopf/f TdT model indicate that less than 50% of Ccr2+ KRM are derived from Ly6chi monocytes. Instead, we find that Ccr2 expression in KRM reflects their spatial distribution as this cell population is almost exclusively found in the kidney cortex. We also identified Cx3cr1 as a gene that governs cortex specific accumulation of Ccr2+ KRM and show that loss of Ccr2+ KRM reduces the severity of cystic kidney disease in a mouse model where cysts are mainly localized to the kidney cortex. Collectively, our data indicate that Cx3cr1 regulates KRM heterogeneity and niche-specific disease progression.

Kidney-resident macrophages promote a proangiogenic environment in the normal and chronically ischemic mouse kidney

Project description:Renal artery stenosis (RAS) caused by narrowing of arteries is characterized by microvascular damage. Macrophages are implicated in repair and injury, but the specific populations responsible for these divergent roles have not been identified. Here, we characterized murine kidney F4/80+CD64+ macrophages in three transcriptionally unique populations. Using fate-mapping and parabiosis studies, we demonstrate that CD11b/cint are long-lived kidney-resident (KRM) while CD11chiMf, CD11cloMf are monocyte-derived macrophages. In a murine model of RAS, KRM self-renewed, while CD11chiMf and CD11cloMf increased significantly, which was associated with loss of peritubular capillaries. Replacing the native KRM with monocyte-derived KRM using bone marrow transplantation followed by RAS, amplified loss of peritubular capillaries. To further elucidate the nature of interactions between KRM and peritubular endothelial cells, we performed RNA-sequencing on flow-sorted macrophages from Sham and RAS kidneys. KRM showed a prominent activation pattern in RAS with significant enrichment in reparative pathways, like angiogenesis and wound healing. In culture, KRM increased proliferation of renal peritubular endothelial cells implying direct pro-angiogenic properties. Human homologs of KRM identified as CD11bintCD11cintCD68+ increased in post-stenotic kidney biopsies from RAS patients compared to healthy human kidneys, and inversely correlated to kidney function. Thus, KRM may play protective roles in stenotic kidney injury through expansion and upregulation of pro-angiogenic pathways

An atlas of healthy and injured cell states and niches in the human kidney [SNARE-Seq2]

Project description:Understanding kidney disease relies upon defining the complexity of cell types and states, their associated molecular profiles, and interactions within tissue neighborhoods. We applied multiple single-cell or -nucleus assays (>400,000 nuclei/cells) and spatial imaging technologies to a broad spectrum of healthy reference (45 donors) and diseased (48 patients) kidneys. This has provided a high resolution cellular atlas of 51 main cell types that include rare and novel cell populations. The multi-omic approach provides detailed transcriptomic profiles, epigenomic regulatory factors, and spatial localizations spanning the entire kidney. We further define 28 cellular states across nephron segments and interstitium that were altered in kidney injury, encompassing cycling, adaptive or maladaptive repair, transitioning and degenerative states. Molecular signatures permitted localization of these states within injury neighborhoods using spatial transcriptomics, while large-scale 3D imaging analysis (~1.2 million neighborhoods) provided corresponding linkages to active immune responses. These analyses defined biological pathways relevant to injury time-course and niches, including signatures underlying epithelial repair that predicted maladaptive states associated with a decline in kidney function. This integrated multimodal spatial cell atlas of healthy and diseased human kidneys represents the most comprehensive benchmark of cellular states, neighborhoods, outcome-associated signatures, and publicly available interactive visualizations.
