Project description:Transcriptome analysis of two population of peritoneal mononuclear phagocytes (CD14+ macrophages and CD1c+ dendritic cells) in peritoneal dialysis effluent from stable (infection-free) peritoneal dialysis patients.
Project description:Peritoneal mesothelial cells are harmed by peritoneal dialysis fluids (PDF) used in renal replacement therapy with peritoneal dialysis. The mechanisms of the cellular damage are not yet described in detail. Primary human peritoneal mesothelial cells derived from omentum of five donors were independently exposed to peritoneal dialysis fluids (extended recovery time). The extent of cell damage was assessed using lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release in the cell culture supernatant and cells were lysed in order to extract mRNA and proteins. Transcriptional changes induced by PDF were analyzed using gene expression microarrays and changes of the proteome were analyzed using 2D-electrophoresis.

Project description:Gut microbiome metagenomic sequencing in peritoneal dialysis patients
Project description:The complete systemic deregulated biological network in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients is still only partially defined. High-throughput/omics techniques may offer the possibility to analyze the main biological fingerprints associated with this clinical condition. For the transcriptomic part of the study, we analyzed new data from 10 patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis .
Project description:To characterize the metabolic profile of peritoneal endothelial cells (ECs) in response to peritoneal dialysis (PD), we performed RNA sequencing of peritoneal ECs isolated from mice treated with PD fluid for 6 weeks (n = 3) and from mice treated with saline for 6 weeks (n = 3). We demonstrated that peritoneal ECs had a hyperglycolytic metabolism in response to PD fluid treatment, which is associated with the development of microvascular alterations and peritoneal dysfunction.
Project description:Long-term peritoneal dialysis is associated with progressive fibrosis of the peritoneum. Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of mesothelial cells is an important mechanism involved in peritoneal fibrosis, and TGF-b1 is considered central in this process. We conducted network-based integrated analysis of transcriptomic data to systemically characterize the molecular signature of TGF-b1-stimulated human peritoneal mesothelial cells (HPMCs).
