Expression data from kidney tissues treated with vehicle, losartan and metformin

ABSTRACT: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is one of the major global health problems with high incidence, poor prognosis and high medical cost. However, few pharmacological options are available for CKD. Metformin is widely used for treatment of type-2 diabetes, but recent works showed that metformin ameliorates tumor progression, inflammatory disease and tissue fibrosis. Whether metformin ameliorates non-diabetic chronic glomerular disease and CKD is unexplored. Here we showed that metformin or losartan (used as control) has protective effects against CKD by suppressing proteinuria, renal inflammation, fibrosis and glomerular injury in Alport syndrome mouse model, which spontaneously manifests chronic glomerular and kidney disease. Transcriptome analysis showed that metformin and losartan influenced molecular pathways of metabolism and inflammation, respectively. While metformin specifically affected genes that were classified as metabolic regulators, losartan specifically altered genes that were classified as inflammatory regulators. Metformin also induced multiple signaling pathways not affected by losartan. Overall, metformin ameliorates non-diabetic chronic glomerular diseases, and could be considered a therapeutic option for CKD. We used microarrays to investigate the global gene expression underlying the protective effects of metformin on Alport syndrome mice model

Epigenome-wide association study of diabetic chronic kidney disease progression

Project description:Since the etiology of diabetic chronic kidney disease (CKD) is multifactorial, studies on DNA methylation for kidney function deterioration have rarely been performed despite the need for an epigenetic approach. Therefore, this study aimed to identify epigenetic markers associated with CKD progression based on the decline in the estimated glomerular filtration rate in diabetic CKD in Korea.

Dual inhibition of the endothelin and angiotensin receptor ameliorates renal and inner ear pathologies in Alport mice

Project description:Alport syndrome, a type IV collagen disorder, leads to glomerular disease and, in some patients, hearing loss. AS is treated with inhibitors of the renin-angiotensin system; however, a need exists for novel therapies, especially those addressing both major pathologies. Sparsentan is a single-molecule dual endothelin type-A and angiotensin II type 1 receptor antagonist (DEARA) under clinical development for focal segmental glomerulosclerosis and IgA nephropathy. We report the ability of sparsentan to ameliorate both renal and inner ear pathologies in an autosomal-recessive Alport mouse model. Sparsentan significantly delayed onset of glomerulosclerosis, interstitial fibrosis, proteinuria, and glomerular filtration rate decline. Sparsentan attenuated glomerular basement membrane defects, blunted mesangial filopodial invasion into the glomerular capillaries, increased lifespan more than losartan, and lessened changes in profibrotic/proinflammatory genes pathways in both the glomerular and renal cortical compartments. Notably, treatment with sparsentan, but not losartan, prevented accumulation of extracellular matrix in the strial capillary basement membranes in the inner ear and reduced susceptibility to hearing loss. Improvements in lifespan and in renal and strial pathology were observed even when sparsentan was initiated after development of renal pathologies. These findings suggest that sparsentan may address both renal and hearing pathologies in Alport syndrome patients.

Quantitative proteomic analysis of hypoxia induced primary kidney cells

Project description:Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is characterized by a slow and gradual loss of kidney function, with glomerular filtration loss over months or years, inevitably leading to end-stage renal disease. The renal failure resulting from this irreversible process derives from fibrotic lesions of each compartment of the kidney; glomerulosclerosis, vascular sclerosis, and tubulointerstitial fibrosis. Nevertheless, despite numerous research efforts, both the definitive mechanism underlying the progression from CKD to end stage renal disease and an effective treatment have remained elusive. In this study, We utilized TMT-multiplexed quantitative proteomics approaches to identify protein expression changes associated with chronic injury in primary cultured renal cells.

In Chronic Kidney Disease Altered Cardiac Metabolism Precedes Cardiac Hypertrophy

Project description:Conduit arterial disease in CKD is an important cause of cardiac complications. Cardiac function in CKD has not been studied in the absence of arterial disease. In an Alport syndrome model bred not to have conduit arterial disease, mice at 225 days of life (dol) had CKD equivalent to human stage 4-5 CKD. PTH and FGF23 levels were one log order elevated, circulating sclerostin was elevated, and renal activin A was strongly induced. Aortic Ca levels were not increased and VSMC transdifferentiation was absent. The CKD mice were not hypertensive, and cardiac hypertrophy was absent. Freshly excised cardiac tissue respirometry (Oroboros) showed ADP-stimulated O2 flux was diminished from 52 to 22 pmol/mg (p=0.022). RNAseq of cardiac tissue from CKD mice revealed significantly decreased levels of cardiac mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation genes. The data reported here show that cardiac mitochondrial respiration is impaired in CKD in the absence of conduit arterial disease. This is the first report of the direct effect of CKD on cardiac respiration.

In silico nano-dissection: defining cell type specificity at transcriptional level in human disease (tubulointerstitium)

Project description:To identify genes with cell-lineage-specific expression not accessible by experimental micro-dissection, we developed a genome-scale iterative method, in-silico nano-dissection, which leverages high-throughput functional-genomics data from tissue homogenates using a machine-learning framework. This study applied nano-dissection to chronic kidney disease and identified transcripts specific to podocytes, key cells in the glomerular filter responsible for hereditary proteinuric syndromes and acquired CKD. In-silico prediction accuracy exceeded predictions derived from fluorescence-tagged-murine podocytes, identified genes recently implicated in hereditary glomerular disease and predicted genes significantly correlated with kidney function. The nano-dissection method is broadly applicable to define lineage specificity in many functional and disease contexts. We applied a machine-learning framework on high-throughput gene expression data from human kidney biopsy tissue homogenates and predict novel podocyte-specific genes. The prediction was validated by Human Protein Atlas at protein level. Prediction accuracy was compared with predictions derived from experimental approach using fluorescence-tagged-murine podocytes.

Expression data from mouse kidney tissue

Project description:The role of the renin-angiotensin system in chronic kidney disease involves multiple peptides and receptors. Exerting antipodal pathophysiological mechanisms, renin inhibition and AT1 antagonism ameliorate renal damage. This is a comparison between the renin inhibitor aliskiren with the At1 antagonist losartan in mice with chronic kidney disease due to renal ablation. Renal tissue from ablated mice was used after 6-week treatment with either 500 mg/l losartan or 50 mg/kg aliskiren per day (n = 5)
