Project description:We have employed whole genome microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to identify genes with the potential to distinguish between the mice with renal IRI injury and sham-operated group.Expression of Gpr97 from this signature was quantified in the same kind of samples by real-time PCR, confirming the change pattern. By microarray analysis, we found that IR-induced Sema3A expression was significantly abolished by Gpr97 deficiency in mice

Project description:Background G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) participate in a variety of physiologic functions, and several GPCRs have critical physiologic and pathophysiologic roles in the regulation of renal function. We investigated the role of Gpr97, a newly identified member of the adhesion GPCR family, in AKI.Methods AKI was induced by ischemia-reperfusion or cisplatin treatment in Gpr97-deficient mice. We assessed renal injury in these models and in patients with acute tubular necrosis by histologic examination, and we conducted microarray analysis and in vitro assays to determine the molecular mechanisms of Gpr97 function.Results Gpr97 was upregulated in the kidneys from mice with AKI and patients with biopsy-proven acute tubular necrosis compared with healthy controls. In AKI models, Gpr97-deficient mice had significantly less renal injury and inflammation than wild-type mice. Gpr97 deficiency also attenuated the AKI-induced expression of semaphorin 3A (Sema3A), a potential early diagnostic biomarker of renal injury. In NRK-52E cells subjected to oxygen-glucose deprivation, siRNA-mediated knockdown of Gpr97 further increased the expression of survivin and phosphorylated STAT3 and reduced toll-like receptor 4 expression. Cotreatment with recombinant murine Sema3A protein counteracted these effects. Finally, additional in vivo and in vitro studies, including electrophoretic mobility shift assays and luciferase reporter assays, showed that Gpr97 deficiency attenuates ischemia-reperfusion-induced expression of the RNA-binding protein human antigen R, which post-transcriptionally regulates Sema3A expression.Conclusions Gpr97 is an important mediator of AKI, and pharmacologic targeting of Gpr97-mediated Sema3A signaling at multiple levels may provide a novel approach for the treatment of AKI.

Project description:Farnesoid X receptor (FXR, also known as NR1H4) is crucial to nephroprotective in several kinds of kidney diseases, including obesity, diabetes, aging, acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease. FXR plays a key role in maintaining cholesterol and bile acid levels and is highly expressed in the liver, intestine and kidneys. In kidney diseases, it is reported that FXR has anti-lipogenic, anti‐inflammatory, antifibrotic, and antioxidant functions. Here, using genomics analysis, we investigated whether FXR attenuates cisplatin-induced AKI through the regulation of ferroptosis. The increased blood urea nitrogen, serum creatinine and ferroptotic responses in cisplatin-induced AKI mice were attenuated by treatment with FXR agonist, GW4064, while those were exacerbated in FXR knockout mice. Using RNA-sequencing analysis, we found novel target genes for FXR associated with ferroptosis. FXR agonist treatment increases lipid and glutathione metabolic gene expression and decreases cell death genes expression. This study identifies transcriptional regulation of ferroptosis by FXR as a potential therapeutic target for cisplatin-induced AKI.

Project description:Renal hypoxia is widespread in acute kidney injury (AKI) of various aetiologies. Hypoxia adaptation, conferred through the hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF), appears to be insufficient. Here we show that HIF activation in renal tubules through Pax8-rtTA-based inducible knockout of von Hippel-Lindau protein (VHL-KO) protects from rhabdomyolysis-induced AKI. In this model, histological observations indicate that injury mainly affects proximal convoluted tubules, with 5% necrosis at d1 and 40% necrosis at d2. HIF-1alpha up-regulation in distal tubules reflects renal hypoxia. However, lack of HIF in proximal tubules suggests insufficient adaptation by HIF. AKI in VHL-KO mice leads to prominent HIF activation in all nephron segments, as well as to reduced serum creatinine, serum urea, tubular necrosis, and apoptosis marker caspase-3 protein. At d1 after rhabdomyolysis, when tubular injury is potentially reversible, HIF mediated protection in AKI is associated with activated glycolysis, cellular glucose uptake and utilization, autophagy, vasodilation, and proton removal as demonstrated by qPCR, pathway enrichment analysis and immunohistochemistry. Together, our data provide evidence for a HIF-orchestrated multi-level shift towards glycolysis as a major mechanism for protection against acute tubular injury. All experiments were carried out in transgenic mice in which selective renal tubular VHL knockout (VHL-KO) was inducible by doxycycline (Reference: Mathia S, Paliege A, Koesters R, Peters H, Neumayer HH, Bachmann S, Rosenberger C. Action of hypoxia-inducible factor in liver and kidney from mice with Pax8-rtTA-based deletion of von Hippel-Lindau protein. Acta Physiol (Oxf). 2013; 207(3):565-76.). Four groups of animals were used: 1) controls: untreated mice; 2) VHL-KO: injected with doxycycline (0.1 mg per 10 g body weight SC), 4 days prior to sacrifice; 3) AKI: rhabdomyolysis; 4) VHL-KO/AKI: doxycycline plus rhabdomyolysis. To induce AKI, 50% glycerol (0.05 ml per 10 g body weight) was injected IM into the left hind limb under isoflurane narcosis. Drinking water was withdrawn between 20 h prior and 24 h after glycerol injection.

Project description:To investigate skin aging is an important driver of experimental osteoarthritis(OA) progression in mice via enhanced IL-36 receptor (IL-36R) signaling. we generated epidermis keratinocyte conditional knockout mice (IL-36Ra-cKO) with topical administration of capsid-mutant Adeno-associated virus 2 (AAV2) vector23 encoding Cre recombinase (AAV2-Cre) to IL-36Rafl/fl mice. Subsequently, epidermal skin tissues were collected from IL-36Rafl/fl and IL-36Ra-cKO mice for RNA sequencing analysis.

Project description:Although there is significant progress in understanding the structure and function of NLRC5, a member of the NOD like receptor (NLR) family, in the context of MHC class I gene expression, the functions of NLRC5 in innate and adaptive immune responses beyond the regulation of MHC class I genes remain controversial and unresolved. In particular, the role of NLRC5 in the kidney keeps unknown. In this study, we found that NLRC5 was significantly upregulated in the kidney from mice with renal ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI). NLRC5 deficient (NLRC5-/-) mice significantly ameliorated renal injury as evidenced by decreased serum creatinine levels, improved morphological injuries, and reduced inflammatory responses versus wild type mice. Similar protective effects were also observed in cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury (AKI). Mechanistically, NLRC5 contributed to renal injury by promoting tubular epithelial cell apoptosis and reducing inflammatory responses which is associated with, at least in part, the negative regulation of carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 1 (CEACAM1). To determine the relative contribution of NLRC5 expression by parenchymal cells or leukocytes to renal damage during IRI, we generated bone marrow (BM) chimeric mice. NLRC5-/- mice engrafted with WT hematopoietic cells had significantly lower serum creatinine and less tubular damage than WT mice reconstituted with NLRC5-/- BM, suggesting that NLRC5 signaling in renal parenchymal cells plays the dominant role in mediating renal damage. Collectively, modulation of NLRC5-mediated pathway may have important therapeutic implications for patients with AKI.

Project description:To investigate skin aging is an important driver of experimental osteoarthritis(OA) progression in mice via enhanced IL-36 receptor (IL-36R) signaling. The supernatants from the co-culture of UV-aged mouse primary keratinocytes with synovial fibroblasts were collected to induce mouse primary articular chondrocytes (CCs) to become aging SNL CCs. On this basis, Spesolimab (100ng/ml) was added to culture aging SNL CCs to study the drug's effect on OA. We then performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of 3 groups: control CCs, aging SNL CCs, aging SNL CCs+Spesolimab.

Project description:The aim of this study was to identify miRNAs that regulate AKI and develop their applications as diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic agents. First, kidney tissues from two different AKI mouse models, namely, AKI induced by the administration of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) causing sepsis (LPS-AKI mice) and AKI induced by renal ischemia–reperfusion injury (IRI-AKI mice), were exhaustively screened for their changes of miRNA expression compared with that of control mice by microarray analysis.
