Glomerular podocyte RNA-seq data of the podocyte-specific Profilin1 deficient mice

ABSTRACT: The progression of proteinuric kidney disease is associated with podocyte loss but the mechanisms remain unclear. Podocytes reenter the cell cycle to repair damaged ds DNA breaks. However, unsuccessful repair results in podocytes crossing the G1/S checkpoint and undergoes abortive cytokinesis. In this study, we identified Pfn1 as a major contributor in maintaining glomerular integrity and its loss in mice results in severe proteinuria, and kidney failure due to podocyte mitotic catastrophe, characterized by abundant multinucleated cells. Reentry of podocytes were identified by using FUCCI-2aR mice, accompanying the alteration of cell-cycle associated proteins, such as P21, P53, Cyclin B, and Cyclin D. Podocyte-specific translating ribosome affinity purification (TRAP) and RNAseq revealed a reduction of Ribosomal RNA-processing protein 8 (Rrp8) and re-expression of Rrp8 partially rescued the in-vitro phenotype. Clinical analysis of patients with proteinuric kidney disease demonstrated multinucleated podocytes and reduced podocyte profilin1 in kidney tissue. These results suggest that profilin is indispensible in regulating podocyte cell cycle and its disruption contributes to podocyte loss through mitotic catastrophe.

Sirt6 Deficiency Exacerbates Podocyte Injury and Proteinuria through Targeting Notch Signaling

Project description:Podocyte injury is a major determinant in proteinuric kidney disease and identification of potential therapeutic targets for preventing podocyte injury has clinical importance. Here, we show that histone deacetylase Sirt6 protects against podocyte injury through epigenetic regulation of Notch signaling. Sirt6 is downregulated in renal biopsies from patients with podocytopathies and its expression negatively correlates withglomerular filtration rate. Podocyte-specific deletion of Sirt6 exacerbates podocyte injury and proteinuria in two independent mouse models including diabetic nephropathy and adriamycin-induced nephropathy. Sirt6 has pleiotropic protective actions in podocytes including anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic effects, is involved in actin cytoskeleton maintenance, and promotes autophagy. Sirt6 also reduces urokinase plasminogen activator receptor expression, which is a key factor for podocyte foot process effacement and proteinuria. Mechanistically, Sirt6 inhibits Notch1 and Notch4 transcription by deacetylating the histone H3K9. We suggest Sirt6 as a potential therapeutic target in proteinuric kidney disease.

MYDGF Deficiency Exacerbates Mitotic Catastrophe of Podocytes in Glomerular Disease

Project description:Podocytes, highly differentiated glomerular epithelial cells, are essential for the maintenance of glomerular filtration barrier. Podocyte dysfunction in podocytes is a major determinant of proteinuric kidney disease. By RNA sequencing analysis in ADR-treated podocytes with or without MYDGF overexpression, we observed the significant changes of genes important in regulating cell cycle in podocytes with ADR treatment.

Elevation of JAML Promotes Diabetic Kidney Disease by Modulating Podocyte Lipid Metabolism

Project description:Podocytes, highly differentiated glomerular epithelial cells, are essential for the maintenance of glomerular filtration barrier. Lipid accumulation in podocytes is a major determinant of proteinuric kidney disease. By RNA-sequencing analysis, we observed the significant changes of genes important in regulating cellular lipid homeostasis in podocytes with HG treatment. We generated two mouse podocyte cell lines stably transduced with either a sh-NC lentiviral construct or a shRNA lentiviral construct designed to target JAML RNA to investigate the consequences on the gene expression profile of JAML knockdown in mouse podocytes.

OASIS overexpression in murine podocyte cell line

Project description:Podocyte injury is involved in the onset and progression of various kidney diseases. We previously demonstrated that the transcription factor, old astrocyte specifically induced substance (OASIS) in myofibroblasts, contributes to kidney fibrosis, as a novel role of OASIS in the kidneys. Importantly, we found that OASIS is also expressed in podocytes; however, the pathophysiological significance of OASIS in podocytes remains unknown. Upon lipopolysaccharide (LPS) treatment, there is an increase in OASIS in murine podocytes. Enhanced serum creatinine levels and tubular injury, but not albuminuria and podocyte injury, are attenuated upon podocyte-restricted OASIS knockout in LPS-treated mice, as well as diabetic mice. The protective effects of podocyte-specific OASIS deficiency on tubular injury are mediated by protein kinase C iota (PRKCI/PKCι), which is negatively regulated by OASIS in podocytes. Furthermore, podocyte-restricted OASIS transgenic mice show tubular injury and tubulointerstitial fibrosis, with severe albuminuria and podocyte degeneration. Finally, there is an increase in OASIS-positive podocytes in the glomeruli of patients with minimal change nephrotic syndrome and diabetic nephropathy. Taken together, OASIS in podocytes contributes to podocyte and/or tubular injury, in part through decreased PRKCI. The induction of OASIS in podocytes is a critical event for the disturbance of kidney homeostasis.

Podocyte-specific induction of Krüppel-like factor 15 restores differentiation markers and attenuates kidney injury in proteinuric kidney disease

Project description:Podocyte injury is the hallmark of proteinuric kidney diseases, such as Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis and Minimal Change Disease. Therapeutic strategies in the management of proteinuric diseases are limited. Although agents such as glucocorticoids, cyclosporine, and rituximab have direct effects on the podocyte by stabilizing its actin cytoskeleton, these drugs are riddled with systemic toxicity and off-target effects that hinder their chronic use. We previously demonstrated that the loss of the kidney-enriched zinc finger transcription factor, Krüppel-like factor 15 (KLF15), increases susceptibility to proteinuric kidney disease as well as attenuates the salutary effects of retinoic acid and glucocorticoids in the podocyte. Here, we show that podocyte-specific induction of KLF15, using the tetracycline-inducible system, attenuated podocyte injury, glomerulosclerosis, tubulointerstitial fibrosis and inflammation, while improving renal function and overall survival in HIV-1 transgenic mice. Enrichment analysis of mRNA sequencing of isolated glomerular extracts from this model shows that podocyte-specific induction of KLF15 activates pathways involved in stabilization of actin cytoskeleton, focal adhesion, and podocyte differentiation. Transcription factor enrichment analysis, with further experimental validation, suggests that KLF15 activity is in part mediated by Wilms Tumor 1 (WT1), a transcription factor known to be critical for podocyte differentiation. Further, we confirmed the benefits of podocyte-specific induction of KLF15 in the adriamycin-induced proteinuric murine model. Collectively, these observations suggest that induction of KLF15 might be a potential therapeutic target in the treatment of proteinuric kidney disease.

Gene expression in a conditionally immortalized mouse podocyte cell line

Project description:The specialized glomerular epithelial cell (podocyte) of the kidney is a complex cell that is often damaged in glomerular diseases. Study of this cell type is facilitated by an in vitro system of propagation of conditionally immortalized podocytes. Here, genes that are differentially expressed in this in vitro model of podocyte differentiation are evaluated. Conditionally immortalized undifferentiated mouse podocytes were cultured under permissive conditions at 33*C. Podocytes that were differentiated at the non-permissive conditions at 37*C were used for comparison.

Role of calcium/calmodulin-dependent kinase type IV in podocyte function in lupus nephritis

Project description:Kidney podocytes and their slit diaphragms contribute to prevent urinary protein loss. T cell from patients with systemic lupus erythematosus display increased expression of calcium/calmodulin kinase IV (CaMKIV). Here we evaluated the functional role of CaMKIV in lupus nephritis (LN) using kidney biopsy specimens and human podocyte cell line (AB8/13). We found that exposure of podocytes to IgG from LN patients resulted in entry of IgG into the cytoplasm. CaMKIV expression was found to be increased in podocytes of LN kidney biopsy specimens and exposure to IgG from LN patients. IgG entered podocytes using the FcRn receptor because when podocytes where treated with FcRn siRNA less IgG was found in the cytoplasm. The DNA microarray studies of podocytes exposed to LN IgG revealed that genes that are related to the activation of immune cells or podocyte damage were upregulated. These genes included CD86, CaMKIV, PTPN22, PDE5A, CD47 and MALT1. Interestingly, CD86 expression decreased after silencing CaMKIV in podocytes. Also, in situ hybridization experiments showed that the expression of CD86 was reduced in podocytes from MRL/lpr.camkivM-bM-^HM-^R/M-bM-^HM-^R mice. IgG from LN patients may enter podocytes through the FcRn and causes the upregulation of a distinct set of genes which may alter podocyte function. Upregulation of CaMKIV appears to precede that of genes known to be linked to podocyte damage such as CD86. These findings may indicate that inhibition of CaMKIV may prove of clinical use in patients with LN. IgG Purification Kits (Dojindo Molecular Technologies, Inc.) are used for isolation and purification of immunoglobulin G of healthy and normal individual according to the manufacturerM-bM-^@M-^Ys protocol. Flow through the column was used for non IgG binding samples. Cultured human podocytes with IgG purified from sera of normal individuals and LN patient for 24 hr were collected for RNA.

Podocyte-specific deletion of tubular sclerosis complex 2 causes focal segmental glomerular sclerosis and progressive renal failure

Project description:Obesity can initiate and accelerate the progression of kidney diseases. However, it remains unclear how obesity affects renal dysfunction. Here, we show that a newly generated podocyte-specific tubular sclerosis complex 2 (Tsc2) knockout mouse model (Tsc2∆podocyte) develops proteinuria and dies due to end-stage renal dysfunction by 10 weeks of age. Tsc2∆podocyte mice exhibit an increased glomerular size and focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, including podocyte foot process effacement, mesangial sclerosis and proteinaceous casts. Podocytes isolated from Tsc2∆podocyte mice show nuclear factor, erythroid derived 2, like 2-mediated increased oxidative stress response on microarray analysis and their autophagic activity is lowered through the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR)—unc-51-like kinase 1 pathway. Rapamycin attenuated podocyte dysfunction and extends survival in Tsc2∆podocyte mice. Additionally, mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1) activity is increased in podocytes of renal biopsy specimens obtained from obese patients with chronic kidney disease. Our work shows that mTORC1 hyperactivation in podocytes leads to severe renal dysfunction and that inhibition of mTORC1 activity in podocytes could be a key therapeutic target for obesity-related kidney diseases.

Comparison of Glomerular and Podocyte mRNA Profiles in eNOS-/- Diabetic Mice Induced by Streptozotocin

Project description:We compared mRNA profiles of isolated glomeruli versus sorted podocytes between diabetic and control mice. IRG mice crossed with eNOS-/- mice were further bred with podocin-rTTA and TetON-Cre mice to permanently label podocytes before the diabetic injury. Diabetes was induced by injection of streptozotocin. mRNA profiles of isolated glomeruli and sorted podocytes from diabetic and control mice at 10 weeks after induction of diabetes were examined. Consistent with the previous reports, expression of podocyte-specific markers in the glomeruli were down-regulated in the diabetic mice compared to controls. However, these differences disappeared when mRNA levels were corrected for podocyte number per glomerulus. Interestingly, the expression of these markers was not altered in sorted podocytes from diabetic mice, suggesting that the reduced expression of podocyte markers in isolated glomeruli is likely a secondary effect of reduced podocyte number, rather than the loss of differentiation markers. Analysis of the differentially expressed genes in diabetic mice also revealed distinct up-regulated pathways in the glomeruli (mitochondrial function and oxidative stress) and podocytes (actin organization). In conclusion, our data suggest that podocyte-specific gene expression in transcriptome obtained from the whole glomeruli may not represent those of podocytes in the diabetic kidney. We compared mRNA profiles of isolated glomeruli versus sorted podocytes between diabetic and control mice.

FOXC2 and WT1 regulate transcriptional reprogramming during the podocyte response to injury

Project description:In the context of human disease, the mechanisms whereby transcription factors reprogram gene expression in reparative responses to injury are not well understood. We have studied the mechanisms of transcriptional reprogramming in disease using murine kidney podocytes as a model for tissue injury. Podocytes are a crucial component of glomeruli, the filtration units of each nephron. Podocyte injury is the initial event in many processes that lead to End Stage Kidney Disease. FOXC2 is a transcription factor known to regulate gene expression in podocytes. FOXC2 and WT1 are both required for podocyte differentiation. Using murine models and human kidney organoids, we investigated FOXC2-mediated transcriptional reprogramming during the course of podocyte injury. Correlating FOXC2 and WT1 ChIP-seq analyses demonstrated that they co-bind many genes expressed in podocytes. Reprogramming the transcriptome involved highly dynamic changes in the binding of FOXC2 and WT1 to target genes during a reparative injury response.
