Project description:Glomeruli and tubules are two key components in adult kidney cortex, and are important for kidney function. In order to understand the transcriptional regulation of kidney glomeruli and tubules, we generated genome wide transcription profiles with laser isolated glomeruli and tubules. Human Transcriptome 2.0 GeneChips (HTA2.0) were used to examine global gene expression.
Project description:We investigated the gene expression profiles of RNA isolated from kidney glomeruli and renal tubules from aged, 24 week old type-2 diabetic (db/db) and non-diabetic mice
Project description:Glomeruli were isolated from the kidney of a 72 yo male patient. The kidney was surgically removed due to renal cell carcinoma. The glomeruli were isolated from uninvolved renal parenchyma. Histology (H&E) of glomeruli and interstitium was normal. Keywords: Kidney Subcompartment

Project description:Glomeruli were isolated from the kidney of a 72 yo male patient. The kidney was surgically removed due to renal cell carcinoma. The glomeruli were isolated from uninvolved renal parenchyma. Histology (H&E) of glomeruli and interstitium was normal. Keywords: Kidney Subcompartment Glomeruli were isolated using the sieving technique in ice-cold PBS, followed by isolation of total RNA with RNeasy kit. RNA was judged intact by agarose gel electrophoresis. SAGE library was custom-synthesized by Genzyme Corportation.
Project description:We identified 1,700 differentially expressed probesets in DKD glomeruli and 1,831 in diabetic tubuli; 330 probesets were commonly differentially expressed in both compartments. The canonical complement signaling pathway was determined to be statistically differentially regulated in both DKD glomeruli and tubuli and was associated with increased glomerulosclerosis even in an additional set of DKD samples. Affymetrix expression arrays were used to identify differentially regulated transcripts in 44 microdissected human kidney samples. Stringent statistical analysis using the Benjamini_Hochberg corrected 2-tailed t-test was used to identify differentially expressed transcripts in control and diseased glomeruli and tubuli. This Series includes DKD and control glomeruli samples.
Project description:In order to understand the kidney compartment specific epigenetic feature of glomeruli, we isolated glomeruli from human kidney biopsy and performed H3K27ac ChIP seq.

Project description:We identified Fox1 and Foxc2 core transcription factors in kidney glomeruli. To investigate their transcriptional regulatory roles in glomeruli, we performed ChIPseq of Foxc1 and Foxc2 in adult mouse kidney glomeruli. The genome wide distribution of Foxc1/2 binding sites revealed they regulated the differentiation and mature state of adult podocyte to maintain kidney homeostatis.
