YOD1 promotes renal fibrosis by stabilizing JAK2 through deubiquitination

ABSTRACT: Renal fibrosis is an important pathological change in the development of progressive kidney diseases. Ubiquitination is a post-translational modification of proteins involved in the regulation of various pathophysiological processes. In this study, we found that the deubiquitinating enzyme YOD1 is significantly upregulated in the kidney tissues of Ang II-challenged mice and Ang II upregulates YOD1 expression in renal tubular epithelial cells. YOD1 deficiency significantly alleviated renal injury and fibrosis induced by Ang II infusion in mice. Mechanistically, RNA-seq and co-immunoprecipitation analysis showed a pro-fibrotic protein, JAK2, as a YOD1-binding protein. We identify that JAK2 interacts with the C-terminal Znf domain of YOD1. YOD1 removed K48-linked ubiquitination of JAK2 at residue K970 via its active site C155, which stabilizes JAK2 and then maintains JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway activation to induce pro-fibrotic gene expression in renal tubular epithelial cells. JAK2 inhibitors reversed the renal fibrosis promoted by YOD1 in mice. We also show increased levels of YOD1 and JAK2 in the kidney tissues of patients with renal fibrosis. In addition, YOD1 knockout significantly prevents unilateral ureteral ligation (UUO)-induced renal fibrosis in mice. Collectively, these findings identify YOD1 as a novel regulator in renal fibrosis via deubiquitinating JAK2.

Immunohistochemical Investigation for Renal Tubules in Adaptive and Maladaptive Repair Process after Renal Tubular Injury in the Kidney of Rats

Project description:Acute kidney injury (AKI) have been thought to be reversible condition, however, emerging evidence demonstrated association between AKI and subsequent development of irreversible fibrosis and chronic kidney disease. In the present study, since recovery of AKI depends on renal tubular regeneration, factors expressing in renal tubules in adaptive or maladaptive repair process were investigated to predict reversibility of kidney injury. In the kidney of female F344 rats subjected to ischemia/reperfusion (I/R), regenerative tubules and dilated tubules were observed at 3 and 7 days after I/R. In fibrotic areas of the kidney of male SD rats subjected to I/R, renal tubules were dilated or atrophied. From microarray data of regenerative tubules, survivin, sex-determining region Y (SRY)-box 9 (SOX9), and CD44 were extracted as factors possibly relating to tubular regeneration or fibrosis. Immunohistochmical analysis demonstrated that survivin and SOX9 expressed in regenerative tubules, while SOX9 also expressed in renal tubules in fibrotic area, indicating that survivin and SOX9 contribute renal tubular regeneration, but sustained SOX9 expression may lead fibrosis. CD44 expressed in dilated tubules at day 3 and 7, and tubules in fibrotic area, suggesting that CD44 expressed in maladaptive tubules. These information will be helpful to consider reversibility of kidney injury.

CD47 modulates the interaction of γ-catenin with E-cadherin and participates in epithelial–mesenchymal transformation in lipid nephrotoxicity

Project description:Hyperlipidemia, an important risk factor for cardiovascular diseases and end-stage renal disease, often increases renal injury and compromises kidney function. In the present study, the kidney histology analysis in human samples showed that high lipid levels induced renal fibrosis. However, the mechanism of lipid nephrotoxicity remains unknown. We employed mice models of two kinds to further experiments. The kidney histology analysis in mouse showed that high lipid levels induced renal fibrosis that was further confirmed by Western blot and real-time PCR of fibrotic indexes (fibronection, collagenI and α-SMA). In Vitro analysis also supported that OX-LDL significantly induced fibrotic response in HK-2 tubular epithelial cells. To further ascertain the mechanism of high lipid-induced fibrosis, RNA-sequencing (RNA-Seq) was performed. Combined the Gene Ontology (GO) analysis results of differentially expressed mRNAs obtained by RNA-Seq with the results of LC-MS/MS and STRING Functional Association Networks showed that CD47 modulated the interaction of γ-catenin with E-cadherin and participated in epithelial–mesenchymal transformation in lipid nephrotoxicity. The inhibition of CD47 expression by transfected with shRNA plasmid or treated with anti-CD47 antibody in OX-LDL-treated tubular epithelial cells restored the expression of E-cadherin and attenuated renal injury including fibrosis and inflammatory response. These findings indicate that CD47 may be a therapeutic potential target for long-term lipid abuse-induced kidney injury.

Indian Hedgehog release from inflamed epithelia links TNF-alpha to organ fibrosis

Project description:In chronic kidney disease (CKD) and with ageing, individuals lose regenerative capacity after renal injury and are predisposed to progressive fibrosis and cardiovascular disease. With ageing and CKD increased numbers of activated leukocytes are present in the circulation and within the kidney where they correlate with progressive fibrosis. The potential role of activated leukocytes in mediating progressive renal and systemic fibrosis remains incompletely understood. Here, we show that tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNFa) released with injury and aging promotes renal and cardiac fibrosis. We identify a Ubiquitin D expressing population of TNFa induced inflammatory proximal tubular epithelia (iPT) responsible for Indian Hedgehog release in aged and fibrotic kidneys. Indian Hedgehog production by iPT cells activates canonical Hedgehog signalling in Gli1+ stromal cells leading to activation, proliferation and fibrosis deposition. Our data links the immune activation seen in aging and chronic kidney disease to cardio-renal fibrosis. This provides multiple targets for antifibrotic therapies which we validate in murine models of aging and kidney disease.

β-catenin-controlled tubular cell-derived exosomes play a key role in fibroblast activation via the OPN-CD44 axis

Project description:Tubular injury and peripheral fibroblast activation are the hallmarks of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and renal fibrosis, suggesting intimate communication between the two diseases. However, the underlying mechanisms remain to be determined. Exosomes play a role in shuttling proteins and other materials to recipient cells. In our study, we found that tubular cell-derived exosomes were aroused by β-catenin in kidney fibrogenesis. Osteopontin (OPN), especially its N-terminal fragments (N-OPN), was encapsulated in β-catenin-controlled tubular cell-derived exosome cargo, and subsequently passed to fibroblasts. Through binding with CD44, exosomal OPN promoted fibroblast proliferation and activation. Gene deletion of β-catenin in tubular cells (Ksp-β-catenin−/−) or gene ablation of CD44 (CD44−/−) greatly ameliorated renal fibrosis. Notably, N-OPN was secreted by exosome into the urine of patients with CKD, and negatively correlated with kidney function. The urinary exosomes from patients with CKD greatly accelerated renal fibrosis, which was blocked by CD44 deletion. These results suggest that exosome-mediated activation of the OPN/CD44 axis plays a key role in renal fibrosis, which is controlled by β-catenin.

miR-132 mediates renal fibrosis: miRNA profiling of foxd1-derivative interstital cells derived from murine fibrotic kidneys compared to healthy kidneys

Project description:Chronic kidney disease is associated with progressive renal fibrosis, where perivascular cells give rise to the majority of Î±-SMA positive myofibroblasts. We sought to identify pericytic miRNAs that could serve as a target to decrease myofibroblast formation. We induced kidney fibrosis in FoxD1-GC;Z/Red-mice by unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) followed by FACS sorting of dsRed-positive FoxD1-derivative cells and miRNA profiling. MiR-132 selectively increased 21-fold during pericyte-to-myofibroblast formation whereas miR-132 was only 2.5-fold up in total kidney lysates (both in UUO and ischemia-reperfusion injury). MiR-132 silencing in UUO decreased collagen deposition (35%) and tubular apoptosis. Immunohistochemistry, western blot and qRT-PCR confirmed a similar decrease in interstitial Î±-SMA+ cells. Pathway analysis identified a rate-limiting role for miR-132 in myofibroblast proliferation that was confirmed in vitro. Indeed, antagomir-132 treated mice displayed a reduction in the number of proliferating, ki67+ interstitial myofibroblasts. Interestingly, this was selective for the interstitial compartment and did not impair the reparative proliferation of tubular epithelial cells, as evidenced by an increase in ki67+ epithelial cells, as well as increased (p-)RB1, Cyclin-A and decreased RASA1, p21 levels in kidney lysates. Taken together, silencing miR-132 counteracts the progression of renal fibrosis by selectively decreasing myofibroblast proliferation and could potentially serve as a novel antifibrotic therapy. Total RNA obtained from FACS sorted mouse FoxD1-derivative interstitial cells from healthy or fibrotic kidneys

Role of Axl in target organ inflammation and damage due to hypertensive aortic remodeling

Project description:Aortic remodeling is a cause and consequence of hypertension. It increases workload on the heart and enhances arterial pulsatility in the microcirculation. We have shown that excessive endothelial stretch leads to release of Growth Arrest Specific 6 (GAS6), which in turn activates the tyrosine kinase receptor Axl on monocytes, and causes immune activation and inflammation. We hypothesized that GAS6/Axl blockade would reduce renal and vascular inflammation and lessen renal dysfunction in the setting of chronic aortic remodeling. We characterized a model aortic remodeling in mice following a 2-week infusion of angiotensin II (ang II). Aortas demonstrated increased mural collagen and mechanical testing revealed a marked loss of Windkessel function or energy storage that persisted for 6 months following ang II. Renal function studies showed a reduced ability to excrete a volume load, a progressive increase in albuminuria and tubular damage as estimated by Periodic Acid Schiff (PAS) staining. Treatment with the Axl inhibitor R428 beginning 2 months after ang II infusion had minimal effect on aortic remodeling 2 months later, but reduced the infiltration of T cells, g/d T cells and macrophages into the aorta and kidney, and improved renal excretory capacity, reduced albuminuria, and reduced evidence of renal tubular damage. We conclude that brief episodes of hypertension can induce chronic aortic remodeling which in turn associates with a low-grade inflammation of the aorta and kidneys and evidence of renal dysfunction. These events are mediated at least in part by GAS6/Axl signaling and are improved with Axl blockade.

Single-cell transcriptional profiling of advanced renal fibrosis identifies novel specific fibroblast marker and disease target

Project description:Dissecting the molecular and cellular nature of advanced renal fibrosis is principal for mechanistic understanding of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and developing targeted strategies against its progression. Aberrant renal fibroblast activation and unresolved tubular epithelial injury are key contributors to excessive extracellular matrix (ECM) production and kidney function loss. However, the transcriptional and cellular identities of activated renal fibroblasts remain poorly characterized. Moreover, historically used markers compromise specificity of activated renal fibroblasts tracing and targeting. Here, we created comprehensive single cell transcriptional profiles of two clinically relevant long-term renal fibrosis models and revealed three distinctive “secretory”, “contractile” and “migratory” fibroblast clusters. We identified a novel specific renal activated fibroblast marker expressed in all three populations. Advanced kidney fibrotic remodeling elicited sustaining developmental signature and pronounced epithelial-to-stromal crosstalk. Furthermore, we mechanistically validated AHNAK as a putative novel target of kidney injury in a primary human in vitro model of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition.

Development of gene expression signatures for high glucose-induced renal tubular fibrosis

Project description:To further explore differentially expressed genes in high glucose-induced renal tubular fibrosis cells, we used whole transcriptome microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to identify genes with a potential role in the high glucose-induced renal fibrosis process. Low-glucose stimulation (5.5 mM glucose) and high-glucose stimulation (25 mM glucose) of human renal tubular HK2 cells identified a consensus profile of 644 highly expressed genes to distinguish high-glucose fibrotic renal tubules from control samples.

IRX2 regulates angiotensin II-induced cardiac fibrosis by transcriptionally activating EGR1 in mice [RNA-seq]

Project description:Cardiac fibrosis is a common feature of chronic heart failure. Iroquois homeobox (IRX) family of transcription factors plays important roles in heart development; however, the role of IRX2 in cardiac fibrosis has not been clarified. Here we report that IRX2 expression is significantly upregulated in the fibrotic hearts. Increased IRX2 expression is mainly derived from cardiac fibroblast (CF) during the angiotensin II (Ang II)-induced fibrotic response. Using two CF-specific Irx2-knockout mouse models, we show that deletion of Irx2 in CFs protect against pathological fibrotic remodelling and improve cardiac function in mice. In contrast, Irx2 gain of function in CFs exaggerate fibrotic remodelling. Mechanistically, we find that IRX2 directly binds to the promoter of the early growth response factor 1 (EGR1) and subsequently initiates the transcription of several fibrosis-related genes. Our study provides the evidence that IRX2 regulates the EGR1 pathway upon Ang II stimulation and drives cardiac fibrosis.
