A single-cell transcriptome atlas of mouse glomerulus

Project description:Three different cell types constitute the glomerular filter: mesangial cells, endothelial cells, and podocytes. As yet, it remains unknown to what extent cellular heterogeneity exists within healthy glomerular cell populations. Here, we used nanodroplet-based, highly parallel transcriptional profiling to characterize the cellular content of purified wildtype mouse glomeruli. Unsupervised clustering of 13,000 single-cell transcriptomes identified the three known glomerular cell types. We provide a comprehensive online atlas of gene expression in glomerular cells, which can be queried and visualized using an interactive and freely available database. Novel marker genes for all glomerular cell types were identified and supported by immunohistochemistry stainings obtained from the Human Protein Atlas. Subclustering of glomerular endothelial cells revealed a subset of activated endothelium, expressing marker genes related to endothelial proliferation. Additionally, the podocyte population could be divided in three different subclusters. In conclusion, our study comprehensively characterizes gene expression in individual glomerular cells and sets the stage for the dissection of glomerular function at the single-cell level in health and disease.

Novel marker genes for all glomerular cell types were identified and supported by immunohistochemistry images obtained from the Human Protein Atlas. Subclustering of endothelial cells revealed a subset of endothelium that expressed marker genes related to endothelial proliferation. By comparison, the podocyte population appeared more homogeneous but contained three smaller, previously unknown subpopulations.Conclusions Our study comprehensively characterized gene expression in individual glomerular cells and sets the stage for the dissection of glomerular function at the single-cell level in health and disease.

Single-Cell Transcriptome Profiling of the Kidney Glomerulus Identifies Key Cell Types and Reactions to Injury

Project description:Background: The kidney glomerulus is a specialized capillary bed that is involved in urine production and blood pressure control. Glomerular injury is a major cause of chronic kidney disease, a widespread epidemic without therapeutic options. Single-cell transcriptomics have radically improved our ability to characterize complex organs, such as the kidney. Cells of the glomerulus, however, have been largely underrepresented in previous single cell kidney studies due to their paucity and intractability. Methods: We used single-cell RNA sequencing to comprehensively characterize the different types of cells in the glomerulus from healthy mice and from four different disease models (nephrotoxic serum nephritis, diabetes, doxorubicin toxicity, CD2AP deficiency). Results: All cell types in the glomerulus were identified using unsupervised clustering analysis. We identified novel marker genes and gene signatures of mesangial cells, vascular smooth muscle cells of the afferent and efferent arteriole, parietal epithelial cells, and three different types of endothelial cells. Analysis of the disease models revealed cell type-specific and injury type-specific responses in the glomerulus, including acute activation of the Hippo pathway in podocytes after nephrotoxic immune injury. Conclusions: We have generated a comprehensive high-resolution single-cell transcriptomic profile of the kidney glomerulus from healthy and injured mice. The dataset provides a useful resource for identifying novel disease-related genes and pathways.
