The spatially resolved transcriptome signatures of glomeruli in chronic kidney disease

ABSTRACT: Here, we used Digital Spatial Profiling (DSP) to describe the glomerular transcriptomic signatures that may characterize the complex molecular mechanisms underlying progressive kidney disease in Alport syndrome, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, and membranous nephropathy. Our results revealed significant transcriptional heterogeneity among diseased glomeruli, and this analysis showed that histologically similar glomeruli manifested different transcriptional profiles. Using glomerular pathology scores to establish an axis of progression, we identified molecular pathways that progressively decreased with increasing pathology scores, including Signal Recognition Particle-dependent co-translational protein targeting to membrane and selenocysteine synthesis pathways. We also identified a distinct signature of upregulated and downregulated genes common to all the diseases investigated when compared to non-diseased tissue from nephrectomies. These analyses using DSP at the single glomerulus level could help to gain insight into the pathophysiology of kidney disease

Expression data from Human Kidney (HK) samples

Project description:Males are 50% more likely to develop end stage kidney failure compared to women. In this study we wanted to find out the molecular mechanism responsible for this increased risk. We collected kidney samples from patients with and without kidney disease and performed a comprehensive gene expression analysis in healthy and diseased male and female kidneys. Interestingly, the set of gender biased genes in healthy kidneys were different from those in diseased kidneys indicating not only baseline gene expression differences but also that the male and female kidney respond differently to disease condition. Our studies indicate that men and women with kidney problems might need to be treated differently. Keywords: Gender difference We collected 42 kidney samples from healthy living transplant donors, nephrectomies and from diagnostic kidney biopsies. Preliminary studies did not show significant gene expression differences in control kidneys based on the collection method (i.e. living kidney biopsy vs. unaffected portion of tumor nephrectomy). We grouped the tissue samples based on the histological readings of the kidney biopsies. Samples with evidence of glomerular and tubulointerstitial fibrosis were assigned into the diseased group. Characteristics of the research participants indicate diverse ethnic and disease groups and mild (StageIII) CKD. The tissue was microdissected into glomerular and tubulointerstitial fractions and expression arrays were performed separately.

Human iPSC derived glomeruli facilitate accurate modelling of podocytopathy

Project description:Podocytes are the highly specialised cells within the glomeruli of the kidney that maintain the filtration barrier by forming interdigitating foot processes and slit-diaphragms. Disruption to these features result in proteinuria. Studies into podocyte biology and disease has been hampered by a paucity of in vitro models of this non-proliferative cell type. Here we characterise sieved glomeruli from kidney organoids derived from human pluripotent stem cells. Compared to conditionally immortalised podocytes, organoid-derived glomeruli show superior podocyte-specific gene and protein expression, morphology and functional properties. Using CRISPR-derived MAFB reporter iPSC lines, homozygous MAFB mutant organoids recapitulated the anticipated disease related transcriptional changes. Culture of kidney organoids on chicken chorioallantoic membrane resulted in glomerular vascularisation, glomerular filtration barrier assembly, formation of slit diaphragms and fenestrated endothelial cells. This definitively demonstrates that human iPSC kidney organoid-derived glomeruli can serve as an accurate model of human podocytopathies and glomerular disease in vitro.

Single-cell profiling of glomerular cells provides a dynamic picture in experimental diabetic kidney disease

Project description:Background: Recent single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) analyses have offered much insight into cell-specific gene expression profiles in normal kidneys. However, in diseased kidneys, understanding of changes in specific cells, particularly glomerular cells, remains limited. Methods: To elucidate the glomerular cell–specific gene expression changes in diabetic kidney disease, we performed scRNA-seq analysis of isolated glomerular cells from streptozotocin-induced diabetic endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS)–deficient (eNOS-/-) mice and control eNOS-/- mice. Results: We identified five distinct cell populations, including glomerular endothelial cells, mesangial cells, podocytes, immune cells, and tubular cells. Using scRNA-seq analysis, we confirmed the expression of glomerular cell–specific markers and also identified several new potential markers of glomerular cells. The number of immune cells was significantly higher in diabetic glomeruli compared with control glomeruli, and further cluster analysis showed that these immune cells were predominantly macrophages. Analysis of differential gene expression in endothelial and mesangial cells of diabetic and control mice showed dynamic changes in the pattern of expressed genes, many of which are known to be involved in diabetic kidney disease. Moreover, gene expression analysis showed variable responses of individual cells to diabetic injury. Conclusion: Our findings demonstrate the ability of scRNA-seq analysis in isolated glomerular cells from diabetic and control mice to reveal dynamic changes in gene expression in diabetic kidneys, with variable responses of individual cells. Such changes, which might not be apparent in bulk transcriptomic analysis of glomerular cells, may help identify important pathophysiologic factors contributing to the progression of diabetic kidney disease.

Dual inhibition of the endothelin and angiotensin receptor ameliorates renal and inner ear pathologies in Alport mice

Project description:Alport syndrome, a type IV collagen disorder, leads to glomerular disease and, in some patients, hearing loss. AS is treated with inhibitors of the renin-angiotensin system; however, a need exists for novel therapies, especially those addressing both major pathologies. Sparsentan is a single-molecule dual endothelin type-A and angiotensin II type 1 receptor antagonist (DEARA) under clinical development for focal segmental glomerulosclerosis and IgA nephropathy. We report the ability of sparsentan to ameliorate both renal and inner ear pathologies in an autosomal-recessive Alport mouse model. Sparsentan significantly delayed onset of glomerulosclerosis, interstitial fibrosis, proteinuria, and glomerular filtration rate decline. Sparsentan attenuated glomerular basement membrane defects, blunted mesangial filopodial invasion into the glomerular capillaries, increased lifespan more than losartan, and lessened changes in profibrotic/proinflammatory genes pathways in both the glomerular and renal cortical compartments. Notably, treatment with sparsentan, but not losartan, prevented accumulation of extracellular matrix in the strial capillary basement membranes in the inner ear and reduced susceptibility to hearing loss. Improvements in lifespan and in renal and strial pathology were observed even when sparsentan was initiated after development of renal pathologies. These findings suggest that sparsentan may address both renal and hearing pathologies in Alport syndrome patients.

Transcription profiling of rat glomeruli: conventionally-isolated and laser capture microdissected glomeruli

Project description:We compared the gene expression analysis of 2 different glomerular isolation techniques (laser capture microdissection with 2 rounds of RNA amplification and unamplified glomerular RNA after iron perfusion with glomerular sieving) and obtained different results depending on the glomerular isolation technique that was used Experiment Overall Design: Paired kidneys from Lewis-Hsd rat kidneys were collected. The glomeruli of one kidney was obtained by LCM with 2 rounds of RNA amplification while the unamplified glomerular RNA of the contralateral kidney was obtained after perfusion with iron oxide and isolated by magnetic purification and a glomerular sieving technique. The RNA was analyzed using the Affymetrix Rat 230A microarrays.

Expression data from kidney tissues treated with vehicle, losartan and metformin

Project description:Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is one of the major global health problems with high incidence, poor prognosis and high medical cost. However, few pharmacological options are available for CKD. Metformin is widely used for treatment of type-2 diabetes, but recent works showed that metformin ameliorates tumor progression, inflammatory disease and tissue fibrosis. Whether metformin ameliorates non-diabetic chronic glomerular disease and CKD is unexplored. Here we showed that metformin or losartan (used as control) has protective effects against CKD by suppressing proteinuria, renal inflammation, fibrosis and glomerular injury in Alport syndrome mouse model, which spontaneously manifests chronic glomerular and kidney disease. Transcriptome analysis showed that metformin and losartan influenced molecular pathways of metabolism and inflammation, respectively. While metformin specifically affected genes that were classified as metabolic regulators, losartan specifically altered genes that were classified as inflammatory regulators. Metformin also induced multiple signaling pathways not affected by losartan. Overall, metformin ameliorates non-diabetic chronic glomerular diseases, and could be considered a therapeutic option for CKD. We used microarrays to investigate the global gene expression underlying the protective effects of metformin on Alport syndrome mice model

Glomerular Transcriptome Profiling Comparing DBA/2 and C57BL/6 mice

Project description:Comparing glomerular gene expression level between mice with different susceptibilities to diabetic nephropathy, DBA/2 (susceptible) and C57BL/6 (resistant) mice, respectively. The hypothesis is that differential expression of glomerular genes regulate susceptibility to diabetic nephropathy. The results show immune related genes. Thus, glomerular inflammation may increase susceptibility to diabetic nephropathy in mice. RNA isolated from kidney glomeruli of DBA/2 and C57BL/6 mice, with or without 4 weeks diabetes induced by streptozotocin.
