Project description:Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is a leading cause of ESRD worldwide, but its molecular pathogenesis is not well-defined and there are no specific treatments. In humans, there is a strong genetic component determining susceptibility to DN. However, specific genes controlling DN susceptibility in humans have not been identified. Here we describe a new mouse model, combining type 1 diabetes with activation of the renin angiotensin system (RAS), which develops robust kidney disease with features resembling human DN: heavy albuminuria, hypertension and glomerulosclerosis. Additionally, there is a powerful effect of genetic background regulating susceptibility to nephropathy. The 129 strain is susceptible to kidney disease, whereas the C57BL/6 strain is resistant. To examine the molecular basis of this differential susceptibility, we analyzed the glomerular transcriptome of young mice with albuminuria but without detectable alterations in glomerular structure. We find dramatic difference in regulation of immune and inflammatory pathways with up-regulation of pro-inflammatory pathways in the susceptible (129) strain and coordinate down-regulation in the resistant (C57BL/6) strain, compared to their respective baselines. Many of these pathways were also up-regulated in a rat model and in humans with DN. Our studies suggest that genes controlling inflammatory responses, triggered by hyperglycemia and hypertension, may be critical early determinants of susceptibility to DN. The analysis was carried out on 2 strains of mice (129/SvEv and C57BL/6), each involving 2 genotypes (wild-type and RenTg/Ins2Akita mutations). Four replicates were used for each strain-genotype (with the exception of 129/SvEv wild-type mice, which had 3 replicates).

Project description:Objective – Previous studies showed that genetic deletion or pharmacological blockade of the Receptor for Advanced Glycation Endproducts (RAGE) prevents the early structural changes in the glomerulus associated with diabetic nephropathy (DN). To overcome limitations of mouse models that lack the progressive glomerulosclerosis observed in humans, we studied the contribution of RAGE to DN in the OVE26 type 1 mouse, a model of progressive glomerulosclerosis and decline of renal function. Research Design and Methods – We bred OVE26 mice with homozygous RAGE knock out (RKO) mice and examined structural changes associated with DN and used inulin clearance studies and albumin:creatinine measurements to assess renal function. Affymetrix Mouse 430.2 microarrays were used to measure the differential expression of OVE26vsFVB(WT) mice. Transcriptional changes in the TGF-?1 and Plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 gene products were measured by pcr to investigate mechanisms underlying accumulation of mesangial matrix in OVE26 mice. Results - Deletion of RAGE in OVE26 mice reduced nephromegaly, mesangial sclerosis, cast formation, glomerular basement membrane thickening, podocyte effacement, and albuminuria. The significant 29% reduction in glomerular filtration rate observed in OVE26 mice was completely prevented by deletion of RAGE. Increased transcription of the genes for Plasminogen activator inhibitor 1, TGF-?1, TGF-? induced, ?1- (IV) collagen observed in OVE26 renal cortex significantly reduced in OVE26 RKO kidney cortex. ROCK1 activity was significantly lower in OVE26 RKO compared to OVE26 kidney cortex. Conclusions - These data provide compelling evidence for critical roles for RAGE in the pathogenesis of DN and suggest that strategies targeting RAGE in long-term diabetes may prevent loss of renal function. The differential gene expression of OVE26 (diabetics) vs FVB (nodiabetic WT) mice was measured using Affymetrix Mouse 430.2 arrays.

Project description:Urinary proteome was analyzed and quantified by Tandem Mass Tag (TMT) labeling followed by bioinformatics analysis to study DN pathophysiology and to identify biomarkers of clinical outcome. We included type 2 diabetic normotensive non-obese males with and without incipient DN (microalbuminuria). Sample collection included blood and urine at baseline (control and DN-basal) and, in DN patients, after 3 months of losartan treatment (DN-treated). Urinary proteome analysis identified 166 differentially abundant proteins between controls and DN patients, 27 comparing DN-treated and DN-basal patients, and 182 between DN-treated patients and controls. Mathematical modeling analysis identified 80 key proteins involved in DN pathophysiology, 15 in losartan effect and 7 of these 95 are essential in both processes. VCAM-1 and neprilysin are the only ones that are differentially expressed in the urinary proteome. We observed an increase of VCAM-1 urine levels in DN-basal patients compared to diabetic controls and an increase of urinary neprilysin in DN-treated patients with persistent albuminuria, the latter confirmed by ELISA . Our results point to neprilysin and VCAM-1 as potential candidates in DN pathology and treatment.

Project description:The early diagnosis of diabetic nephropathy (DN) is essential to improve the prognosis and manage patients affected by this disease. Standard biomarkers, including albuminuria and glomerular filtration rate, are limited to give a precise result. New molecular biomarkers are needed to identify better and predict DN disease evolution. Characteristic DN biomarkers can be identified using transcriptomic analysis. Blood samples were used to isolate RNA for microarray expression using Agilent SurePrint G3 Human Gene Expression 8x60K v2 Microarrays, we evaluated the transcriptomic profile of controls , prediabetes, type-2 diabetes mellitus, and DN.

Project description:Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) remains the number one cause of end-stage renal disease in the western world. Currently there is no treatment to cure diabetes or deal effectively with its complications. In experimental diabetes, mitochondrial dysfunction in the kidney has been widely reported with changes in mitochondrial bioenergetics preceding the development of the renal lesion. Glucose-derived molecules generated during diabetes, known as dicarbonyls, such as methylglyoxal, are thought to impair mitochondrial function and may contribute to the pathogenesis of DKD. Here, we sought to target methylglyoxal within the mitochondria using MitoGamide, the novel mitochondria-targeted dicarbonyl scavenger, in an experimental model of diabetes. Male 6-week-old heterozygous Akita mice (C57BL/6-Ins2-Akita/J) or wildtype littermates were randomized to receive MitoGamide (10mg/kg/day) or vehicle by oral gavage for 16 weeks. MitoGamide did not alter blood glucose control or body composition. Akita mice exhibited hallmarks of DKD including albuminuria, hyperfiltration, glomerulosclerosis and renal fibrosis, however, after 16 weeks of treatment, MitoGamide did not substantially improve the renal phenotype. Complex-I-linked mitochondrial respiration was increased in the kidney of Akita mice which was unaffected by MitoGamide. Exploratory studies using transcriptomics identified that MitoGamide induced changes to olfactory signalling, immune system, respiratory electron transport and post-translational protein modification pathways. These findings indicate that targeting methylglyoxal within the mitochondria using MitoGamide is not a valid therapeutic approach for DKD and that other mitochondrial targets or processes upstream should be the focus of therapy.

Project description:Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is the leading cause of chronic kidney disease and end-stage renal disease. Emerging evidence suggests that complement activation is involved in the pathogenesis of DN. The aim of this study was to investigate the pathogenic role of C3a and C3a receptor (C3aR) in DN. The expression of C3aR was examined in the renal specimen of DN patients. Using a C3aR gene knockout mice (C3aR-/-), we evaluated kidney injury in diabetic mice. The mouse gene expression microarray was performed to further explore the pathogenic role of C3aR. Then the underlying mechanism was investigated in vitro with macrophage treated with C3a. Compared with normal controls, the renal expression of C3aR was significantly increased in DN patients. C3aR-/- diabetic mice developed less severe diabetic renal damage compared with WT diabetic mice, exhibiting significantly lower level of albuminuria and milder renal pathological injury. Microarray profiling uncovered significantly suppressed inflammatory responses and T cell adaptive immunity in C3aR-/- diabetic mice compared with WT diabetic mice and this result was further verified by immunohistochemical staining of renal CD4+, CD8+ T cells and macrophages infiltration. In vitro study demonstrated C3a can enhance macrophages secreted cytokines which could induce inflammatory responses and differentiation of T cell lineage. In conclusion, C3aR deficiency could attenuate diabetic renal damage through suppressing inflammatory responses and T cell adaptive immunity, possibly by influencing macrophages secreted cytokines. Thus, C3aR may be a promising therapeutic target for DN.
