Project description:During liver fibosis, the CLU protein was overexpressed of hepatocytes. Loss of function perform showed that CLU is protective for liver fibrosis. Mechanismly, we found LRP2 postive cells were increased after hrCLU administration in fibrotic CLUKO mice. Then single cell analysis domenstrated that LRP2 positive cells were mesothelial cells, which play a critical role of endocytosis during fibrosis resolution. Taken together, we identify clusterin as a protective chaperone that can reverse liver fibrosis and clear extracellular matrix, which targets LRP2 signaling mediated endocytosis.

Project description:Peritoneal fibrosis is a major complication of long-term peritoneal dialysis (PD), leading to ultrafiltration failure and sometimes life threatening encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis. Fibrosis is driven by activated myofibroblasts that are derived, in part, from mesothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (MMT). We aimed to discover novel mediators of MMT and then experimentally exploit them to prevent peritoneal fibrosis. Using an antibody to HBME-1 and streptavidin nanobead technology, we first pioneered a novel method to purify rat mesothelial cells. After exposing mesothelial cells to transforming growth factor β1 (TGFβ1), we undertook RNAseq whole transcriptome analyses and outlined, the expression profile of sorted mesothelial cells at pre- and post- MMT.

Project description:Local factors produced in the tissue microenvironment play essential roles in promoting the ontogeny and phenotype of tissue resident macrophages (TRM). In the peritoneal cavity, large peritoneal macrophages (LPM) are the dominant TRMs that functionally mediate type 2 immunity, facilitate tissue repair of the mesothelium, and protect against peritoneal fibrosis. It is established that retinoic acid derived from the omentum induces transcription factor Gata6 expression in LPMs, which in turn regulates gene expression of factors that define peritoneal macrophages. It is still unclear whether retinoic acid is the sole local factor that regulates Gata6 expression in LPMs. Mesothelial cells line the entire peritoneal cavity and produce a protective, non-adhesive barrier against injury, at least in part by recruiting immune cells with secreted cytokines, such as M-CSF. We hypothesized that secreted factors from peritoneal mesothelial cells are also responsible for regulating LPM development including both ontogeny and function. Due to their immediate proximity to the peritoneal cavity, we propose that mesothelial cells can produce and secrete proteins into the peritoneum to maintain Gata6 expression by LPMs. To identify secreted factors that are highly and specifically expressed in mesothelial cells, we harvested primary mesothelial cells from 10-week-old C57BL/6 mice using FACS selection (CD45- PDPN+ GPM6a+). Total RNA was isolated from these cells and subjected to RNA-seq analysis after depletion of ribosomal RNA.

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).

Project description:Despite their emerging relevance to fully understand disease pathogenesis, we have as yet a poor understanding as to how biomechanical signals are integrated with specific biochemical pathways to determine cell behaviour. Mesothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (MMT) markers colocalized with TGF-beta1-dependent signalling and yes-associated protein (YAP) activation across biopsies from different pathologies exhibiting peritoneal fibrosis, supporting mechanotransduction as a central driving component of these class of fibrotic lesions and its crosstalk with specific signaling pathways. Transcriptome and proteome profiling of the response of mesothelial cells (MCs) to linear cyclic stretch revealed molecular changes compatible with bona fide MMT, which (i) overlapped with established YAP target gene subsets, and (ii) were largely dependent on endogenous TGF-beta1 signaling. Importantly, TGF-beta1 blockade blunts the transcriptional upregulation of the se gene signatures, but not the mechanical activation and nuclear translocation of YAP per se. We studied the role therein of caveolin-1 (Cav1), a plasma membrane mechanotransducer. Exposure of Cav1-deficient MCs to cyclic stretch led to a robust upregulation of MMT-related gene programs, which was blunted upon TGF-beta1 inhibition. Conversely, Cav1 depletion enhanced both TGF-beta1 and TGFBRI expression. Cav1 genetic deficiency exacerbated MMT and PA fibrosis in an experimental model of peritoneal ischaemic buttons. Taken together, these results support that Cav1-YAP/TAZ fine-tune the fibrotic response through the modulation of MMT, onto which TGF-beta1-dependent signaling coordinately converges. Our findings reveal a cooperation between biomechanical and biochemical signals in the triggering of MMT, representing a novel potential opportunity to intervene mechanically-induced disorders coursing with peritoneal fibrosis, such as post-surgical adhesions.

Project description:Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a common genetic motor neuron (MN) disease caused by low levels of the ubiquitously expressed housekeeping survival motor neuron (SMN) protein, whereas concomitant overexpression of plastin 3 (PLS3) protects from SMA. Here we identify neurocalcin delta (NCALD), a neuronal calcium sensor, as a second fully protective SMA modifier, which counteracts SMA pathology when downregulated. We show reduced Ca2+ influx and impaired endocytosis in SMA, which are crucial processes in synaptic vesicle recycling and neurotransmission. Remarkably, both reduced NCALD or increased PLS3 restore endocytosis in cell culture and MN function across species in zebrafish, worm and mouse SMA models, whereas Ca2+ influx remains disturbed. Furthermore, NCALD physically binds clathrin in a Ca2+-dependent manner. We propose that NCALD acts as a Ca2+-regulated inhibitor of endocytosis, and that endocytosis is critically affected in SMA. This finding opens new therapeutic avenues for SMA.

Project description:Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is the worldwide recognized preferred dialysis treatment for children affected by end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). However, due to the unphysiological composition of PD fluids, the peritoneal membrane (PM) of these patients may undergo structural and functional alterations, which may cause fibrosis. Several factors may accelerate this process and primary kidney disease may have a causative role. In particular, patients affected by corticoresistant primary focal segmental glomerulosclerosis), a rare glomerular disease leading to nephrotic syndrome and ESKD, seem more prone to develop peritoneal fibrosis. The mechanism causing this predisposition is still unrecognized. To better define this condition, we carried out, for the first time, a new comprehensive comparative proteomic mass spectrometry analysis of mesothelial exosomes from peritoneal dialysis effluent (PDE) of 6 pediatric patients with focal segmental glomerular sclerosis (FSGS) versus 6 patients affected by other primary renal diseases (No FSGS). Our omic study demonstrated that, despite the high overlap in the protein milieu between the two study groups, machine learning allowed a complete distinction of the whole proteomic exosome mesothelial content of FSGS versus No FSGS (with 100% accuracy). Out of the 2490 identified proteins, 40% (995) were involved in epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)/fibrosis and in the transforming growth factor-β pathway. Additionally, the Weight Gene Co-expression Network Analysis algorithm identified that some of the discriminative proteins (TIMP1, CTHRC1, SPARC, CHMP4B, COL5A2, ANXA13, FNC2 and CENP-E) were also highly correlated to PD vintage, fibrosis, EMT and non-neoplastic PM disease. All together our data demonstrated that mesothelial cells of FSGS patients are more prone to activate a pro-fibrotic machinery with exosomes having a primary role in this process. Moreover, they indicated that identified FSGS-associated elements in mesothelial exosome protein could be employed as potential new biomarkers of mesothelial integrity. Finally, our results highlighted that in FSGS patients particular attention should be paid to use more biocompatible dialysis solution, reduce the length of time on PD and personalize PD regimens to minimize the risk of rapid loss of PM function or development of encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis.
