Project description:Acute kidney injury(AKI) is associated with an increased risk of chronic kidney disease(CKD). There is still a lack of effective prevention for AKI-CKD transition. In the present study, we simultaneously explored the contribution of GSDMD and GSDME in folic acid (FA)-induced nephropathy, a model mimicking the essential components of the AKI-CKD transition. We found that blockage of both GSDMD and GSDME-mediated pyroptosis could have accumulative protection against FA-induced AKI-CKD transition. GSDME-mediated pyroptosis played a crucial role in tubular cell damage. GSDMD could exert important functions in infiltration of inflammatory cells and NETs formation. Pyroptotic tubular cells triggered NETs generation and macrophage polarization. NETs promoted macrophage-to-myofibroblast transition. Our results illustrated the orchestration of GSDMD and GSDME in AKI-CKD transition, providing new insights into the molecular mechanism for the clinical dilemma.

Project description:Treatment of acute kidney injury (AKI) is suboptimal. TWEAK is known to mediate cell death and inflammation in AKI. Transcriptomic analysis of murine tubular cells will allow us to identify novel mediators and therapeutic targets of this pathology. TWEAK is an inflammatory cytokine which is upregulated in AKI. Transcriptomic analysis of TWEAK-stimulated cultured murine tubular epithelial cells identified downregulation of peroxisome proliferator activated receptor-g coactivador-1a (PGC-1a) and its target genes (mitochondrial proteins Ndufs1, Sdha, and Tfam) as a shared feature.

Project description:Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is the gradual, asymptomatic loss of kidney function and current tests only identify it when significant loss has already happened. Using RNA sequencing in a mouse model of folic acid (FA) induced nephropathy, here we report the identification of 10 genes that track kidney fibrosis development, the common pathological finding in CKD patients. The gene expression of all 10 candidates was confirmed to be significantly high (~ 10-150 fold) in three well-established and mechanistically distinct mouse models of kidney fibrosis. Protein expression was also high in the FA model as well as patients with biopsy-proven kidney fibrosis. The specificity of these 10 candidates for kidney fibrosis was demonstrated by showing a very modest (~ 2-5 fold) increase in the mouse models of acute kidney injury as well as following liver fibrosis in mice and humans. Using targeted selected reaction monitoring mass spectrometry (SRM-MS) we found that 3 out of 10, cadherin 11 (CDH11), mannose receptor C1 (MRC1), phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP), are detectable in human urine. Furthermore, the levels of CDH11 and MRC1 are able to distinguish patients with chronic kidney disease from healthy individuals (n = 78, p<0.01). In summary, we report the identification of CDH11 and MRC1 as novel non-invasive biomarkers of CKD. mRNA sequencing of mouse kidney before and at various time points (1,2,3,7 & 14 days) after intraperitoneal treatment with folic acid.

Project description:Hypertension and persistent activation of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) are predisposing factors for development of acute kidney injury (AKI). Although bone marrow-derived stromal cells (BMSCs) have shown therapeutic promise in treatment of AKI, the impact of pathological RAS on BMSC functionality has remained unresolved. RAS and its local components in the bone marrow are involved in several key steps of cell maturation processes. This may also render BMSC population vulnerable to alterations even in the early phases of RAS pathology. We isolated TG-BMSCs from young, end organ disease-free rats with increased RAS activation (human angiotensinogen/renin double transgenic rats; dTGR) that eventually develop hypertension and die of end-organ damage and kidney failure at 8-weeks-of-age. Control cells were isolated from wild-type Sprague-Dawley rats (SD-BMSCs). Cell phenotype, mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and respiration were assessed, and gene expression profiling was carried out using microarrays. Cells’ therapeutic efficacy was evaluated in a rat model of acute ischemia-reperfusion-induced AKI. Serum urea and creatinine were measured at 24h and 48h. Acute tubular damage was scored and immunohistochemistry was used for evaluation for markers of inflammation (MCP-1, ED-1), and kidney injury (KIM-1, NGAL). TG-BMSCs showed distinct mitochondrial morphology, decreased cell respiration, and increased production of ROS. Gene expression profiling revealed a pronounced pro-inflammatory phenotype. In contrast to the therapeutic effect of SD-BMSCs, administration of TG-BMSCs in the AKI model resulted in exacerbation of kidney injury and high mortality. Our results demonstrate that early persistent RAS activation can dramatically compromise therapeutic potential of BMSCs by shift into a pro-inflammatory phenotype with mitochondrial dysfunction.

Project description:Renal fibrosis is the common pathway in the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Acyloxyacyl hydrolase (AOAH) is expressed in various phagocytes and is highly expressed in proximal tubular epithelial cells (PTECs). Research shows that AOAH plays a critical role in infections and chronic inflammatory diseases, although its role in kidney injury is unknown. Here, we found that AOAH deletion led to exacerbated kidney injury and fibrosis after folic acid (FA) administration, which was reversed by overexpression of Aoah in kidneys. ScRNA-seq revealed that Aoah-/- mice exhibited increased subpopulation of CD74+ PTECs, though the percentage of total PTECs were decreased compared to WT mice after FA treatment. Additionally, exacerbated kidney injury and fibrosis seen in Aoah-/- mice was attenuated via administration of methyl ester of (S, R)-3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-4,5-dihydro-5-isoxazole acetic acid (ISO-1), an inhibitor of macrophage inhibition factor (MIF) and CD74 binding. Finally, AOAH expression was found positively correlated with estimated glomerular filtration rate while negatively correlated with the degree of renal fibrosis in kidneys of CKD patients. Thus, our work indicates that AOAH protects against kidney injury and fibrosis by inhibiting renal tubular epithelial cells CD74 signaling pathways. Targeting kidney AOAH represents a promising strategy to prevent renal fibrosis progression.

Project description:Mammalian kidney has very limited ability to repair or regenerate after acute kidney injury (AKI). The maladaptive repair of AKI promotes the progression to chronic kidney disease (CKD). Therefore, it is extremely urgent to explore new strategies to promote the repair/regeneration of injured renal tubules after AKI. It has been shown that hypoxia induces heart regeneration in adult mice. However, it is unknown whether hypoxia can induce kidney regeneration after AKI. In this study, we used a prolyl hydroxylase domain inhibitor (PHDI), MK-8617, to mimic hypoxia condition and found that MK-8617 significantly ameliorates ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) induced acute kidney injury. We then showed that MK-8617 dramatically facilitates renal regeneration via promoting the proliferation of injured renal proximal tubular cells (RPTCs) after IRI-induced AKI. We then performed bulk mRNA sequencing and discovered that multiple nephrogenesis- related genes were significantly upregulated with MK-8617 pretreatment. Furthermore, we showed that MK-8617 may alleviate proximal tubule injury via stabilizing HIF-1α protein specifically in renal proximal tubular cells. We also demonstrated that MK-8617 promotes the reprogramming of renal proximal tubular cells to Sox9+ renal progenitor cells, and the regeneration of renal proximal tubules. In summary, we discovered that inhibition of prolyl hydroxylase improves renal proximal tubule regeneration after IRI-induced AKI via promoting the reprogramming of renal proximal tubular cells to Sox9+ renal progenitor cells.

Project description:Treatments for kidney fibrosis represent an urgent yet unmet clinical need. Effective therapies are limited due to not well understood molecular pathogenesis. We aimed at generating a comprehensive and integrated multi-omics data set (RNA/ microRNA transcriptomics and proteomics) of fibrotic kidneys which will be searchable through a user-friendly web application. Therefore, two commonly used mouse models were utilized: a reversible chemical-induced injury model (folic acid (FA) induced nephropathy) and an irreversible surgical-induced fibrosis model (unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO)). RNA and small RNA sequencing as well as MS/MS with 10-plex tandem mass tags proteomics were performed with kidney samples from different time points over the course of fibrosis development. In summary, we present temporal and integrated multi-omics data from fibrotic mouse kidneys which are accessible through an interrogation tool to provide a searchable transcriptome and proteome for kidney fibrosis researcher.
