Project description:NZB/WF1 female mice spontaneously develop autoimmune lupus nephritis. Expression profiling of kidney tissue from (a) 12 week NZB/W F1 female mice defined as asymptomatic for lupus nephritis, (b) 36 and 42 week NZB/W F1 female mice defined as diseased/symptomatic for lupus nephritis and (c) 36 and 42 week NZB/W F1 female mice that are diseased/symptomatic for lupus nephritis and treated with Sirolimus was carried out. The goal of the study was to identify genes associated with lupus nephritis and modulated by Sirolimus, an inhibitor of mTOR. In addition, lupus nephritis genes resistant to Sirolimus therapy were also identfied This series of samples comprises of kidney tissue from (a) 12 week old NZB/W F1 female mice defined as asymptomatic for lupus nephritis (N=4), (b) 36 (N=3) and 42 week (N=3) old NZB/W F1 female mice defined as diseased/symptomatic for lupus nephritis and (c) 36 (N=3)and 42 (N=3) week old NZB/W F1 female mice that are asymptomatic for lupus nephritis on treatment with Sirolimus

Project description:We aimed to identify miRNA biomarkers of renal injury in kidney biopsies from patients with lupus nephritis. MiRNA profiles of 8 patients were analyzed for correlation with various clinical features including Progression, Activity, Chronicity, and Time to Kidney Failure. MicroRNAs (miRs) are promising biomarkers and are involved in pathogenesis of kidney diseases. We aimed to identify miR biomarkers of renal injury in kidney biopsies from patients with lupus nephritis and study their potential role in renal fibrosis. miR-150 was significantly increased in kidneys with high chronicity compared to low chronicity and it correlated positively with chronicity index scores and renal collagen I expression. In kidneys with high chronicity, miR-150 was found predominantly in proximal tubular cells (PTCs) and was moderately expressed in podocytes and to lesser degree in mesangial cells (MCs). We hypothesized that miR-150 increases fibrosis by downregulating a negative regulator of profibrotic proteins. Suppressor of cytokine signaling1 (SOCS1) is a predicted target of miR-150 and has shown antifibrotic role. After confirming that SOCS1 is a direct target of miR-150, we showed that transfection of a miR-150 analog downregulated SOCS1 protein and upregulated the profibrotic proteins fibronectin, collagen I, collagen III, and TGF-β1 in both primary normal human renal PTCs and MCs. A similar effect was seen when using a SOCS1 siRNA to confirm that the effect of miR-150 on profibrotic proteins is mediated through SOCS1. Stimulation with TGF-β1 induced miR-150 increase in PTCs and human podocytes but not MCs. These results suggest that miR-150 might be a useful quantitative renal biomarker of kidney injury in lupus nephritis and that miR-150, which might be partially induced by TGF-β1, plays an important role in renal fibrosis by increasing profibrotic molecules through downregulation of SOCS1. FFPE kidney specimens (n=25) including baseline and repeated needle renal biopsies were from 14 patients with LN enrolled in IRB-approved protocols at the NIDDK between 1976 and 1999. The specimens were divided in two groups based on histological chronicity index (CI). CI ≥ 4 were categorized as having high degree of chronicity of chronic kidney injury. 18 kidneys from 8 patients including high CI (n=9) and low CI (n=9) were used for miR profiling by Affymetrix microRNA microarrays.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNA) have emerged as an important new class of modulators of gene expression. In this sudy we investigated miRNA that are differentially expressed in lupus nephritis. Microarray technology was used to investigate differentially expressed miRNA in PBMCs and EBV-transformed cell lines obtained from lupus nephritis patients and controls. TaqMan-based stem-loop real-time PCR was used for validation. Microarray analysis of miRNA expressed in African Americans (AA) derived lupus nephritis samples revealed 29 differentially expressed miRNA, of 850 tested. Microarray analysis of miRNA expressed in European American (EA) derived lupus nephritis samples revealed 50 differentially expressed miRNA, of 850 tested.

Project description:Lupus nephritis is a serious complication of systemic lupus erythematosus, mediated by IgG immune complex (IC) deposition in kidneys, with limited treatment options. Kidney macrophages are critical tissue sentinels that express IgG-binding Fcγ receptors (FcγRs), with previous studies identifying prenatally seeded resident macrophages as major IC responders. Using single-cell transcriptomic and spatial analyses in murine and human lupus nephritis, we sought to understand macrophage heterogeneity and subset-specific contributions in disease. In lupus nephritis, the cell fate trajectories of tissue-resident (TrMac) and monocyte-derived (MoMac) kidney macrophages were perturbed, with disease-associated transcriptional states indicating distinct pathogenic roles for TrMac and MoMac subsets. Lupus nephritis–associated MoMac subsets showed marked induction of FcγR response genes, avidly internalized circulating ICs, and presented IC-opsonized antigen. In contrast, lupus nephritis-associated TrMac subsets demonstrated limited IC uptake, but expressed monocyte chemoattractants, and their depletion attenuated monocyte recruitment to the kidney. TrMacs also produced B cell tissue niche factors, suggesting a role in supporting autoantibody-producing lymphoid aggregates. Extensive similarities were observed with human kidney macrophages, revealing cross-species transcriptional disruption in lupus nephritis. Overall, our study suggests a division of labor in the kidney macrophage response in lupus nephritis, with treatment implications — TrMacs orchestrate leukocyte recruitment while MoMacs take up and present IC antigen.

Project description:The purpose of the experiment was to compare the transcriptional profile of lupus nephritis kidney tissue at a first flare and expression at a repeated lupus nephritis episode. All samples were laser microdissected into glomerular and tubular compartments and samples were ran in different cartridges. Fourteen lupus nephritis patients and ten normal controls (7 for glomeruli) FFPE samples were laser microdissected and then ran into 5 cartridges for glomeruli and 5 cartridges for tubulointerstitium. This dataset is part of the TransQST collection.

Project description:Type-2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) have emerged as key immune-response regulators in renal-inflammatory diseases such as lupus nephritis. However, the adhesion and migration of ILC2s, including in the homeostatic and diseased kidney, are poorly understood. By integrating transcriptomic profiling, flow cytometry, live-cell imaging, and in-vivo models, we showed that renal ILCs are retained in the homeostatic kidney by the adherence of their cell-surface integrin α4β7 to VCAM-1, E-cadherin or fibronectin on structural kidney cells. When cultured on these ligands, ILC2s demonstrated remarkable migration. Knocking down integrin-α4β7 expression reduced ILC2 Areg production. In lupus nephritis, TLR7/9 may downregulate ILC2 expression of integrin-α4β7, thereby both reducing Areg expression and promoting ILC2 egress. Areg loss may promote the proinflammatory-cytokine secretion by T cells. IL-33 upregulated ILC2 integrin-α4β7 and Areg expression. Notably, IL-33 treatment enhanced survival in lupus nephritis by mitigating kidney inflammation. Thus, ILC2 adhesion may be a therapeutic target for autoimmune kidney diseases.
