Chronic kidney disease and splicing events

ABSTRACT: Renal failure is associated with accumulation of various solutes called Uremic toxins. Post transcriptional regulation related to Chronic kidney disease (CKD) have already been described as RNA based silencing with micro RNA or modifications of mRNA degradation. Until now, alternative splice modification was not mentioned in the course of CKD. However, CKD is associated with modification of gene expression. The aim of the study was to explore modification of the alternative splice pattern in the course in CKD. The expression level of individual exons expression in human fibroblast were compared after culture to 96 hours of uremic condition or control condition. Three independant experiments were performed

Project description:Background. Chronic renal failure is characterized by progressive renal scarring and accelerated cardiovascular disease. In animal models, this is thought to be due to non-dialyzable uremic toxins M-bM-^@M-^S small, protein-bound molecules normally secreted via Organic Anion Transporters (OATs) in the proximal renal tubule,rather than filtered at the glomerulus. The best studied of these is indoxyl sulfate (IS). Methods. We examined global gene expression responses in cultured normal human renal tubular cells incubated with control plasma (n=5) or pre- and post-dialysis uremic plasma (n=10). Results. GeneSpring analysis of microarrays revealed significantly altered expression of 2016 genes. The expression of 537 genes M-bM-^@M-^\normalizedM-bM-^@M-^] in post-dialysis plasma, suggesting removal of M-bM-^@M-^\low molecular weight uremic toxinsM-bM-^@M-^] by dialysis. The expression of the majority of dysregulated genes (1479) was not normalized in post-dialysis plasma. These likely represent the effects of substances not effectively removed by dialysis (M-bM-^@M-^\protein-bound uremic toxinsM-bM-^@M-^]). Addition of indoxyl sulfateto control plasma simulated most effects (81.1%) of uremic plasma, while the addition of probenecid, an OAT inhibitor, to uremic plasma reversed most changes in gene expression. Analysis of molecular programs with the Gene Set Enrichment Analysis and the DAVID database revealed patterns common to indoxyl sulfate-treated control plasma, pre-dialysis, and post-dialysis uremic plasma. These included increased cell cycle, pro-inflammatory, and pro-fibrotic molecular programs, particularly genes in the TGF-M-NM-2 pathway. Conclusion: These findings provide insight into the role of non-dialyzable, protein-bound uremic toxins in the pathogenesis of renal scarring and uremic vasculopathy. The GSEA patterns confirm that inflammatory and fibrotic programs are active. Transcriptomic remodeling in response to external stimulus RNA from non-immortalized cultured renal cortical cells incubated with plasma samples from 5 controls, 10 uremics pre-dialysis, 10 uremics post-dialysis, 5 controls with indoxyl sulfate added, 5 uremics pre-dialysis with probenecid added, 5 uremics post-dialysis with indoxyl sulfate added
