Protective role of early Tnfsf15 upregulation in limiting glomerular injury and proteinuria in experimental Alport Syndrome

Project description:Alport syndrome is a progressive kidney disease caused by pathogenic variants in genes encoding type IV collagen, a major structural component of the glomerular basement membrane (GBM). Abnormal GBM architecture impairs filtration and triggers inflammation, fibrosis, and eventual kidney failure. Because disease progression is irreversible, identifying early molecular changes is essential for understanding disease onset. We performed glomerular single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) in a Col4a5 G5X Alport mouse model at 5 weeks of age, prior to detectable proteinuria or GBM/podocyte abnormalities (pre-onset), and at 8 weeks, when mild proteinuria and structural defects emerged. Despite the early stage, scRNA-seq revealed widespread transcriptional alterations, most prominently in podocytes. Among genes upregulated at both time points, we identified Tumor Necrosis Factor Superfamily Member 15 (Tnfsf15), previously associated with kidney disease susceptibility but with unclear function. To determine its role in Alport syndrome, we generated Tnfsf15-deficient Alport mice. Tnfsf15 homozygous knockout mice exhibited increased proteinuria and exacerbated glomerular injury compared with Tnfsf15(+/+) Alport mice during early disease. These findings support a protective role for Tnfsf15 in the early stages of Alport syndrome, mitigating proteinuria and limiting glomerular injury.

Patient-derived podocyte spheroids reveals new insights into the etiopathogenesis of Alport Syndrome

Project description:Alport syndrome (AS) is a rare disease characterized by defective glomerular basement membranes, caused by mutations in COL4A3, COL4A4 and COL4A5, which synthesize collagen type IV. Patients present with progressive proteinuria, hematuria and podocyte loss. There is currently no cure for AS, and this is mainly due to its complex and variable pathogenesis, as well as the lack of models that can faithfully mimic the human phenotype.

iPSC-derived type IV collagen α5-expressing kidney organoids model Alport syndrome

Project description:Alport syndrome (AS) is a hereditary glomerulonephritis caused by COL4A3, COL4A4 or COL4A5 gene mutations and characterized by abnormalities of glomerular basement membranes (GBMs). Due to a lack of curative treatments, the condition proceeds to end-stage renal disease even in adolescents. Hampering drug discovery is the absence of effective in vitro methods for testing the restoration of normal GBMs. Here, we aimed to develop kidney organoid models from AS patient iPSCs for this purpose. We established iPSC-derived collagen α5(IV)-expressing kidney organoids and confirmed that kidney organoids from COL4A5 mutation-corrected iPSCs restore collagen α5(IV) protein expression. Importantly, our model recapitulates the differences in collagen composition between iPSC-derived kidney organoids from mild and severe AS cases. Furthermore, we demonstrate that a chemical chaperone, 4-phenyl butyric acid, has the potential to correct GBM abnormalities in kidney organoids showing mild AS phenotypes. This iPSC-derived kidney organoid model will contribute to drug discovery for AS.

Tetrahedral DNA Nanostructure-delivered Suppressor tRNA Ameliorates Nephropathy in COL4A5 Nonsense Mutation-mediated Alport Syndrome Mice

Project description:Nonsense mutations introduce premature termination codons (PTCs) that trigger mRNA degradation and underlie genetic diseases, including Alport syndrome (AS). Suppressor tRNAs (sup-tRNAs) are potential therapies for such disorders, as they can precisely readthrough PTCs and restore full-length protein synthesis. For AS caused by COL4A5 nonsense-mediated deficiency, we developed a TDN-sup-tRNA delivery strategy using tetrahedral DNA nanostructures (TDNs) characterized by excellent biocompatibility and renal targeting. In a Col4a5-R471X mouse model, TDN-sup-tRNA achieved high readthrough efficiency, restoring COL4A5 protein expression and reconstituting glomerular basement membrane integrity. Notably, proteinuria was reduced to 35% of baseline within four weeks. Compared with AAV2/9-mediated delivery, this system exhibited enhanced renal targeting and superior therapeutic efficacy over a one-month treatment period, without detectable toxicity. Collectively, this strategy represents a safe and effective non-viral RNA therapeutic approach for precise correction of nonsense mutation–associated renal diseases.

Spatial transcriptomics reveals key differences in Alport disease progression and potential targets of hEV treatment in Alport disease

Project description:Alport syndrome is a glomerular disease. To understand the disease progression of alport syndrome and potential therapeutical effects of hEV derived from AFSCs, we performed spatial transcriptomics to profile the heterogeniety of cell populations in kidneys of mouse of AS through disease progression and hEV treated AS mice as well. Our analysis sheds light on key functional parts of the kidney responsible in disease progression as well as potential targets of hEV therapy.

Single cell gene expression analysis of X-linked Alport syndrome kidney organoid models and isogenic controls

Project description:In study we investigated podocyte maturation, with a particular focus on type IV collagen maturation in the glomerular basement membrane (GBM) of kidney organoids over extended culture periods (comparing Control Organoid d22 R2 with Control Organoid d38). The secondary aim was to compare the gene expression profiles of podocytes in X-linked Alport syndrome (XLAS) organoid models with isogenic controls at an early culture time point (day 22). Two distinct batches of sample collection were conducted to capture early and later stages of GBM development. In the first batch, three libraries were generated by collecting 16 organoids from one isogenic control, one severe XLAS model, and one moderate XLAS model on day 22 of differentiation. In the second batch, two libraries were created to evaluate the impact of culture duration on GBM maturation by harvesting an additional isogenic control organoid at both day 22 and day 38 of culture. Organoids were dissociated using a two-step enzymatic and mechanical protocol to obtain single-cell suspensions, with cell viability ranging between 70% and 85%. This experimental design enabled a comparative analysis of GBM maturation dynamics between early and late time points and across different severities of XLAS. Findings from this study provided insights into the cellular mechanisms underlying GBM abnormalities in Alport syndrome and supported the potential for GBM maturation in kidney organoids over time.
