Project description:Podocytes form filtration barrier through foot process around glomerualar basement membrane and selectively permit permeability of molecular smaller than albumin. Diabetes can cause podocyte pathological changes leading to high urine albumin level. Diabetic mouse model OVE26 has extremly high urine albumin and previously studies indicated its podocyte damaged. Here we try to find the key genes change in OVE26 diabetic mouse model podocyte by microarray assay while normal FVB mouse podocyte set as control.

Project description:We compared mRNA profiles of isolated glomeruli versus sorted podocytes between diabetic and control mice. IRG mice crossed with eNOS-/- mice were further bred with podocin-rTTA and TetON-Cre mice to permanently label podocytes before the diabetic injury. Diabetes was induced by injection of streptozotocin. mRNA profiles of isolated glomeruli and sorted podocytes from diabetic and control mice at 10 weeks after induction of diabetes were examined. Consistent with the previous reports, expression of podocyte-specific markers in the glomeruli were down-regulated in the diabetic mice compared to controls. However, these differences disappeared when mRNA levels were corrected for podocyte number per glomerulus. Interestingly, the expression of these markers was not altered in sorted podocytes from diabetic mice, suggesting that the reduced expression of podocyte markers in isolated glomeruli is likely a secondary effect of reduced podocyte number, rather than the loss of differentiation markers. Analysis of the differentially expressed genes in diabetic mice also revealed distinct up-regulated pathways in the glomeruli (mitochondrial function and oxidative stress) and podocytes (actin organization). In conclusion, our data suggest that podocyte-specific gene expression in transcriptome obtained from the whole glomeruli may not represent those of podocytes in the diabetic kidney. We compared mRNA profiles of isolated glomeruli versus sorted podocytes between diabetic and control mice.

Project description:We and others have previously shown that glomerular endothelial cells and podocytes express hypoxia-inducible transcription factors (HIFs). HIFs bind to hypoxia response elements in target genes, such as vascular endothelial growth factor, which is continually produced by podocytes throughout life. To further assess function of HIFs in podocyte biology, podocin-Cre mice were mated with floxed von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) mice to selectively delete VHL, a component of an E3 ligase complex responsible for degradation of HIFs in normoxia. We reasoned that cells lacking VHL would overexpress stable HIFs and upregulate hypoxia-responsive genes. Progeny from these crosses displayed two phenotypes, non-proteinuric with glomerular basement membrane (GBM) defects and proteinuric with GBM defects and end-stage renal failure at ~6 months of age. Gene changes associated with the mild, non-proteinuric phenotype were studied using isolated glomeruli from wildtype and Pod-Cre fVHL mice. At 4 weeks of age, urine was collected and urinary albumin was quantified by Albuwell elisa from Pod-Cre fVHL litters. At 6 weeks of age, glomeruli from 3 wildtype littermate controls and 3 non-proteinuric Pod-Cre fVHL mice were collected using the magnetic bead method. RNA was extracted and hybridized to Affymetrix microarrays.

Project description:The glomerular filtration barrier prevents large serum proteins from being lost into the urine. It is not known, however, why the filter does not routinely clog with large proteins that enter the glomerular basement membrane (GBM). Here we provide evidence that an active transport mechanism exists to remove immunoglobulins that accumulate at the filtration barrier. We found that FcRn, an IgG and albumin transport receptor, is expressed in podocytes and functions to internalize IgG from the GBM. Mice lacking FcRn accumulated IgG in the GBM as they aged and tracer studies showed delayed clearance of IgG from the kidneys of FcRn deficient mice. Supporting a role for this pathway in disease, saturating the clearance mechanism potentiated the pathogenicity of nephrotoxic sera. These studies support the idea that podocytes play an active role in removing proteins from the GBM and suggest that genetic or acquired impairment of the clearance machinery is likely to be a common mechanism promoting glomerular diseases. Experiment Overall Design: Total RNA for genechip analysis was derived from two sources: Experiment Overall Design: 1) Primary mouse podocytes isolated by FACS sorting of collagenase digested glomeruli Experiment Overall Design: 2) In vitro differentiated conditionally immortalized mouse podocyte cell line. Experiment Overall Design: After obtaining genechip data, the expression of various IgG and albumin receptors was queried in the genechip data and then confirmed by RT-PCR.

Project description:Objective – Previous studies showed that genetic deletion or pharmacological blockade of the Receptor for Advanced Glycation Endproducts (RAGE) prevents the early structural changes in the glomerulus associated with diabetic nephropathy (DN). To overcome limitations of mouse models that lack the progressive glomerulosclerosis observed in humans, we studied the contribution of RAGE to DN in the OVE26 type 1 mouse, a model of progressive glomerulosclerosis and decline of renal function. Research Design and Methods – We bred OVE26 mice with homozygous RAGE knock out (RKO) mice and examined structural changes associated with DN and used inulin clearance studies and albumin:creatinine measurements to assess renal function. Affymetrix Mouse 430.2 microarrays were used to measure the differential expression of OVE26vsFVB(WT) mice. Transcriptional changes in the TGF-?1 and Plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 gene products were measured by pcr to investigate mechanisms underlying accumulation of mesangial matrix in OVE26 mice. Results - Deletion of RAGE in OVE26 mice reduced nephromegaly, mesangial sclerosis, cast formation, glomerular basement membrane thickening, podocyte effacement, and albuminuria. The significant 29% reduction in glomerular filtration rate observed in OVE26 mice was completely prevented by deletion of RAGE. Increased transcription of the genes for Plasminogen activator inhibitor 1, TGF-?1, TGF-? induced, ?1- (IV) collagen observed in OVE26 renal cortex significantly reduced in OVE26 RKO kidney cortex. ROCK1 activity was significantly lower in OVE26 RKO compared to OVE26 kidney cortex. Conclusions - These data provide compelling evidence for critical roles for RAGE in the pathogenesis of DN and suggest that strategies targeting RAGE in long-term diabetes may prevent loss of renal function. The differential gene expression of OVE26 (diabetics) vs FVB (nodiabetic WT) mice was measured using Affymetrix Mouse 430.2 arrays.

Project description:OVE26 (OVE) mice provide a useful model of advanced diabetic nephropathy (DN) with respect to albuminuria and pathologies. We showed that albuminuria, reduced GFR and interstitial fibrosis, which normally take 8-9 months to develop, are more advanced in uninephrectomized OVE mice within 10 weeks of surgery, at 4.5 months of age. The accelerated progression of renal damage, especially renal fibrosis in OVE-uni mice, was also identified at the gene expression level. The hepatic fibrosis/hepatic stellate cell activation pathway was by far the most significant Ingenuity canonical pathway identified by gene array in OVE-uni mice. Many inflammatory- and immune-related pathways were found among the top pathways up-regulated in OVE-uni kidneys, including acute-phase response signaling, leukocyte extravasation, IL6, IL10, IL12 signaling, TREM1 signaling, dendritic cell maturation and the complement system. These pathways were also dramatically up-regulated in 8-month-old OVE mice (GSE20636). Nephrectomized OVE mice are a much faster alternative model for studying advanced renal disease in diabetes. Study of renal gene expression in diabetic OVE26 mice. Uninephrectomy was used as an accelerating factor. Pooled RNA samples from 4 individual mice in each treatment group (OVE-uni, OVE-sham, FVB-uni, FVB-sham) were used for probe hybridization. Treatment groups: OVE-uni: uninephrectomy treatment in diabetic mice OVE-sham: sham surgery treatment in diabetic mice FVB-uni: uninephrectomy treatment in nondiabetic mice FVB-sham: sham surgery treatment in nondiabetic mice

Project description:Alport syndrome (AS) is a genetic defect involving mutations of collagen IV α3, α4 or α5 genes, resulting in distinctive clinical features: kidney disease, hearing loss and eye abnormalities. Podocytes are responsible of production and correct assembly of the collagen IV isoforms, however, specific alterations of podocyte phenotype are currently scarce. We here generated immortalised AS urine-derived podocyte from three different patients. AS podocytes expressed a typical podocyte signature when compared to normal urine-derived podocytes, with comparable expression of podocyte markers. Each AS cell line showed a collagen IV profile that reflected the typical patient mutation. Furthermore, by RNA-sequencing 348 genes were found differentially expressed in Alport podocytes. Gene Ontology analysis underlined enrichment in genes involved in cell motility, adhesion, survival and angiogenesis. In parallel, AS podocyte motility was reduced. In conclusion, our data clearly indicate that AS podocytes display altered features connected but distinct from the collagen alterations.

Project description:While blocking the renin angiotensin aldosterone system (RAAS) has been the main therapeutic strategy to control diabetic kidney disease (DKD) for many years, 25-30% of diabetic patients still develop the disease. In the present work we adopted a system biology strategy to analyze glomerular protein signatures to identify drugs with potential therapeutic properties in DKD acting through a RAAS-independent mechanism. Glomeruli were isolated from wild type and type 1 diabetic mice (Ins2Akita) treated or not with the angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEi) ramipril. Ramipril efficiently reduced the urinary albumin/creatine ratio (ACR) of Ins2Akita mice without modifying DKD-associated renal-injuries. Large scale quantitative proteomics was used to identify the DKD-associated glomerular proteins (DKD-GPs) that were ramipril-insensitive (RI-DKD-GPs). We then applied an in silico drug repurposing approach using a pattern-matching algorithm (Connectivity Mapping) to compare the RI-DKD-GPs’s signature with a collection of thousands of transcriptional signatures of bioactive compounds. The sesquiterpene lactone parthelonide was identified as one of the top compounds predicted to reverse the RI-DKD-GPs’s signature. Treatment of diabetic Ins2Akita mice with dimethylaminoparthenolide (DMAPT), a water soluble analogue of parthenolide, significantly reduced urinary ACR. However, in contrast to ramipril, DMAPT also significantly reduced glomerulosclerosis and tubulointerstitial fibrosis. Using a system biology approach we identified DMAPT, as a compound with a potential add-on value to standard-of-care ACEi-treatment in DKD.

Project description:Purpose: Next-generation sequencing (NGS) was used to define the transcriptome of native mouse podocytes and non-podocytes glomerular cells as part of a project aiming to define the molecular fingerprint of mouse podocytes. Method: Glomeruli from 29 Gt(ROSA)26Sortm4(ACTB-tdTomato,-EGFP)Luo/J x hNPHS2Cre mice at the age of 10 weeks were purified and a single cell solution was prepared to seperate GFP-expressing (podocytes) and GFP-negative (non-podocytes glomerular cells) cells by FACS sorting. RNA was extracted and prepared for further analysis using directional, polyA+ library preparation. An Illumina HiSeq2500 was used for a paired-end sequencing of 100 cycles . Salmon and Sleuth were used for downstream analysis. Results: A total of 100 Million reads each from podocytes and non-podocytes glomerular cells could be used for further analysis.
