Project description:Kinase inhibitors (KIs) used in cancer therapeutics are associated with various side effects. One of the most significant adverse events that lead to discontinuation or modification of treatment is nephrotoxicity. We have identified BCR-ABL1 inhibitor dasatinib as a potential glomerular nephrotoxin due to its direct effect on podocyte biophysics. In order to understand the underlying molecular mechanisms used phospho-tyrosine enriched shotgun proteomics in immortalized mouse kidney podocytes treated with dasatinib.

Project description:The progression of proteinuric kidney disease is associated with podocyte loss but the mechanisms remain unclear. Podocytes reenter the cell cycle to repair damaged ds DNA breaks. However, unsuccessful repair results in podocytes crossing the G1/S checkpoint and undergoes abortive cytokinesis. In this study, we identified Pfn1 as a major contributor in maintaining glomerular integrity and its loss in mice results in severe proteinuria, and kidney failure due to podocyte mitotic catastrophe, characterized by abundant multinucleated cells. Reentry of podocytes were identified by using FUCCI-2aR mice, accompanying the alteration of cell-cycle associated proteins, such as P21, P53, Cyclin B, and Cyclin D. Podocyte-specific translating ribosome affinity purification (TRAP) and RNAseq revealed a reduction of Ribosomal RNA-processing protein 8 (Rrp8) and re-expression of Rrp8 partially rescued the in-vitro phenotype. Clinical analysis of patients with proteinuric kidney disease demonstrated multinucleated podocytes and reduced podocyte profilin1 in kidney tissue. These results suggest that profilin is indispensible in regulating podocyte cell cycle and its disruption contributes to podocyte loss through mitotic catastrophe.

Project description:Podocyte injury is involved in the onset and progression of various kidney diseases. We previously demonstrated that the transcription factor, old astrocyte specifically induced substance (OASIS) in myofibroblasts, contributes to kidney fibrosis, as a novel role of OASIS in the kidneys. Importantly, we found that OASIS is also expressed in podocytes; however, the pathophysiological significance of OASIS in podocytes remains unknown. Upon lipopolysaccharide (LPS) treatment, there is an increase in OASIS in murine podocytes. Enhanced serum creatinine levels and tubular injury, but not albuminuria and podocyte injury, are attenuated upon podocyte-restricted OASIS knockout in LPS-treated mice, as well as diabetic mice. The protective effects of podocyte-specific OASIS deficiency on tubular injury are mediated by protein kinase C iota (PRKCI/PKCι), which is negatively regulated by OASIS in podocytes. Furthermore, podocyte-restricted OASIS transgenic mice show tubular injury and tubulointerstitial fibrosis, with severe albuminuria and podocyte degeneration. Finally, there is an increase in OASIS-positive podocytes in the glomeruli of patients with minimal change nephrotic syndrome and diabetic nephropathy. Taken together, OASIS in podocytes contributes to podocyte and/or tubular injury, in part through decreased PRKCI. The induction of OASIS in podocytes is a critical event for the disturbance of kidney homeostasis.

Project description:Cosmc is an obligate chaperone for C1GalT1 T transferase necessary for generating mature mucin-type O-glycans. Animals lacking Cosmc in glomerular podocytes develop proteinuria, glomerulosclerosis and progressive renal failure. This study was designed to examine transcriptome differences in 1 month male animals with and without podocyte Cosmc, a time point when proteinuria is established but glomerular architecture is still relatively intact.

Project description:Podocytes are an integral part of the glomerular infiltration barrier. At present, many genes are known essential for podocyte survival and structural and functional homeostasis; however, there are more such genes to be uncovered. By single-cell RNA-seq of mouse podocytes, we detected the expression of gene encoding MCC regulator of WNT signaling pathway (MCC) in majority of the single podocytes and speculated that MCC may be essential for podocytes. We confirmed MCC expression in mouse podocytes and further showed its expression in human podocytes. To experimentally prove the essentiality of MCC for podocytes, we knocked down MCC in cultured podocytes, resulting in marked morphological change of cell shape, cytoskeletal stress fiber disruption, increased apoptosis, and downregulation of podocyte essential genes, CD2AP and WT1, demonstrating that MCC is essential for podocytes. To investigate the mechanism underlying the role of MCC in podocytes, we performed RNA-seq analysis of the podocytes in culture 24 hours after transfection of siRNA against MCC, followed by bioinformatics analysis of the genes with altered expression, and found some mechanistic clues. Lastly, we found that MCC is downregulated in podocytes treated with puromycin aminonucleosides and in glomeruli of diabetic mice and FSGS patients, implicating MCC in the development of podocytopathy and proteinuria. In conclusion, MCC is essential for podocytes and its deficiency may be involved in podocytopathy.

Project description:The specialized glomerular epithelial cell (podocyte) of the kidney is a complex cell that is often damaged in glomerular diseases. Study of this cell type is facilitated by an in vitro system of propagation of conditionally immortalized podocytes. Here, genes that are differentially expressed in this in vitro model of podocyte differentiation are evaluated. Conditionally immortalized undifferentiated mouse podocytes were cultured under permissive conditions at 33*C. Podocytes that were differentiated at the non-permissive conditions at 37*C were used for comparison.

Project description:The thorough characterization of the transcriptome of endogenous podocytes has been hampered by low yields of cell isolation procedures. Here we introduce a double fluorescent reporter mouse model combined with an optimized bead perfusion protocol and efficient single cell dissociation yielding more than 500,000 podocytes per mouse allowing for global, unbiased downstream applications. Combining mRNA transcriptional profiling revealed programs of highly specific gene regulation tightly controlling cytoskeleton, cell differentiation, endosomal transport and peroxisome function in podocytes. Strikingly, the analyses further predict that these podocyte-specific gene regulatory networks are accompanied by alternative splicing of respective genes. In summary, the presented M-bM-^@M-^XomicsM-bM-^@M-^Y approach will facilitate the discovery and integration of novel gene, protein and organelle regulatory networks that deepen our systematic understanding of podocyte biology. To compare gene expression of glomerulus podocytes versus non-podocytes 5 replicates of 4 pooled mice were used. Data were normalized by robust multi-chip analysis. Exon expression values were summarised to the core meta probesets, as defined by Affymetrix, using the oligo library from R.
