Project description:We have established a novel mouse model for postnatal erythropoietin (Epo)-deficiency anaemia, designated ISAM (inherited super anemic mouse) using a transgenic complementation rescue technique. To identify responsible signals for myofibroblastic transformation of Renal Erythropoietin-producing cells (REPs), we examined the mRNA expression profile of whole ISAM kidneys that underwent reversible UUO model. Unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO)-induced gene expression changes were analyzed. Three UUO-treated samples (Clip), three reversed UUO kidneys (ClipR-14), and two sham-treated and one untreated samples were compared.

To identify Epo-regulated genes in vivo, we examined the mRNA expression profile in the bone marrow of ISAM 6 hours after recombinant human EPO (rHuEPO) administration. Erythropoietin-induced gene expression in mouse bone marrow was measured at 6 hours after rHuEPO administration (3,000 U/kg). Three Epo-treated samples were analyzed, and two PBS-treated and one untreated samples were used as a control group.

Project description:Erythropoietin (EPO) drives erythropoiesis and is secreted mainly by the kidney upon hypoxic or anemic stress. The paucity of EPO production in renal EPO-producing cells (REPs) causes renal anemia, one of the most common complications of chronic nephropathies. Although mitochondrial dysfunction is commonly observed in several renal and hematopoietic disorders, the mechanism by which mitochondrial quality control impacts renal anemia remains elusive. In this study, we showed that FUNDC1, a mitophagy receptor, plays a critical role in EPO-driven erythropoiesis induced by stresses. Mechanistically, EPO production is impaired in REPs in Fundc1-/- mice upon stresses, and the impairment is caused by the accumulation of damaged mitochondria, which consequently leads to the elevation of the reactive oxygen species (ROS) level and triggers inflammatory responses by up-regulating proinflammatory cytokines. These inflammatory factors promote the myofibroblastic transformation of REPs, resulting in the reduction of EPO production. We therefore provide a link between aberrant mitophagy and deficient EPO generation in renal anemia. Our results also suggest that the mitochondrial quality control safeguards REPs under stresses, which may serve as a potential therapeutic strategy for the treatment of renal anemia.

Project description:Renal fibrosis as the final outcome of many renal diseases, has always been paid more attention to by the researchers. To better understand whether lncRNAs could be a player in this process or be a biomarker for renal fibrosis diagnosis, we compared transcriptome sequencing data on renal tissues and urine respectively between UUO and shamed (Sham) rat model. Numerous genes including lncRNAs with significant changes in their expression were identified. 24 lncRNAs were up-regulated and 79 lncRNAs were down-regulated in the renal tissues of the UUO rats. 625 lncRNAs were up-regulated and 177 lncRNAs were down-regulated in urines of the UUO rats. Among the lncRNAs upregulated in renal tissue of UUO rats, 19 lncRNAs were predicted containing several conserved Smad3 binding motifs in the promoter. Among them, lncRNAs with putative promoter containing more than 4 conserved Smad3 binding motifs were demonstrated to be induced by TGF-β significantly in NRK-52E cells. We further confirmed that lncRNA TCONS_00088786 and TCONS_01496394 were regulated by TGF-β stimulation and also can influence the expression of some fibrosis-related genes through a feedback loop. Based on transcriptome sequencing data, bioinformatics analysis and qRT-PCR detection, we also demonstrated lncRNA in Urine are detectable and might be a novel biomarker of renal fibrosis. These data provide new information about the involvement of lncRNAs in renal fibrosis, indicating that they may serve as candidate biomarkers or therapeutic targets in the future.

Project description:Abstract Background: Several studies on the use of erythropoietin (Epo) to treat anaemia in patients undergoing cancer treatment have shown adverse effects on tumour control and survival. Experimental studies indicate that this could be linked to an interaction with wound healing processes and not an effect on tumour cells per se. We have previously shown that erythropoietin in combination with surgical trauma stimulates tumour growth. In the present study, we investigated the effect of surgery and Epo on gene expression. Methods: Human tumours from oral squamous cell cancer were xenotransplanted to nude mice treated with Epo. The tumours were then transected in a standardised procedure to mimic surgical trauma and the change in gene expression of the tumours was investigated by microarray analysis. qRT-PCR was used to measure the levels of mRNAs of pro-apoptotic genes. The frequency of apoptosis in the tumours was assessed using immunohistochemistry for caspase-3. Results: There was little change in the expression of genes involved in tumour growth and angiogenesis but a significant down-regulation of the expression of genes involved in apoptosis. This effect on apoptosis was confirmed by a general decrease in the expression of mRNA for selected pro-apoptotic genes. Epo-treated tumours had a significantly lower frequency of apoptosis as measured by immunohistochemistry for caspase 3. Conclusions: Our results suggest that the increased tumour growth during erythropoietin treatment might be due to inhibition of apoptosis, an effect that becomes significant during tissue damage such as surgery. This further suggests that the decreased tumour survival during erythropoietin treatment might be due to inhibition of apoptosis.

Project description:Resistance to erythropoietin (EPO) treatment is observed in a considerable proportion of anemic patients with chronic kidney disease. Previous reports suggest that inflammation is one of the major independent predictors of this resistance, and pro-inflammatory cytokines have been shown to inhibit erythropoiesis. The aim of this study was to investigate EPO-induced modification to gene expression in primary cultured leukocytes. Microarray experiments were performed on ex vivo Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMCs) from pooled ten healthy donors (n=9), primed or not with TNF-alpha, and treated with recombinant human erythropoietin alpha (EPO-alpha). Real-time PCR experiments were used to validate expression of the molecular targets considered most relevant for inflammation. Data analysis suggested that EPO-alpha treatment mainly modulated genes involved in cell movement and cell-cell interaction in primed PBMCs. Notably, EPO-alpha exerts anti-inflammatory effects inhibiting the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-8 and its receptor CXCR2; by contrast, EPO-alpha further increases expression of genes relating to promotion of inflammation encoding for IL-1beta and CCL8, and induces de novo synthesis of IL-1alpha, CXCL1 and CXCL5 in primed PBMCs. MAPK p38alpha?reducing activity is involved in modulation of IL-1beta and IL-8 expression. In conclusion, our findings confirm the anti-inflammatory role for EPO, but also suggest a plausible in vivo scenario, in which the positive correlation found between EPO-resistance and elevated levels of some pro-inflammatory mediators is due to treatment with EPO itself. One future objective will be to perform in vivo measurement of the molecular targets highlighted, in order to identify any additional markers involved in EPO-resistance among hypo-responsive patients.
