Experimental mouse model of chronic kidney disease reveals altered cardiac oxidative stress responses in CKD

ABSTRACT: Uremic cardiomyopathy is a clinically highly relevant cause of cardiovascular events in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). This study aimed at a comprehensive analysis of cardiac function and cardiac pathological characteristics in adenine-induced CKD in 129/Sv mice. This included the analysis of kidney function and morphology, heart function as well as cardiac hypertrophy, fibrosis and calcification. Also, cardiac RNA-sequencing was performed. Although overall, no cardiac dysfunction, hypertrophy or fibrosis could be observed, prolonged moderate CKD in this mouse model enhanced cardiac oxidative stress markers. In line, cardiac RNA-sequencing revealed an increase in oxidative stress-inducing signaling in CKD as well as anti-inflammatory feedback responses. This suggests a maladaptive preconditioning of the heart in CKD, which could increase the risk of enhanced cardiovascular damage upon additional cardiovascular risk factors and/or events.

Iron and kidney macrophages in CKD

Project description:Systemic iron metabolism is disrupted in chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, little is known about local kidney iron homeostasis and its role in kidney fibrosis. Kidney-specific effects of iron therapy in CKD also remain elusive. Here, we elucidate the role of macrophage iron status in kidney fibrosis and demonstrate that it is a potential therapeutic target. In CKD, kidney macrophages exhibited depletion of labile iron pool (LIP) and induction of transferrin receptor 1, indicating intracellular iron deficiency. Low LIP in kidney macrophages was associated with their defective antioxidant response and proinflammatory polarization. Repletion of LIP in kidney macrophages through knockout of ferritin heavy chain (Fth1) reduced oxidative stress and mitigated fibrosis. Similar to Fth1 knockout, iron dextran therapy, through replenishing macrophage LIP, reduced oxidative stress, decreased the production of proinflammatory cytokines, and alleviated kidney fibrosis. Interestingly, iron markedly decreased TGF-β expression and suppressed TGF-β–driven fibrotic response of macrophages. Iron dextran therapy and FtH suppression had an additive protective effect against fibrosis. Adoptive transfer of iron-loaded macrophages alleviated kidney fibrosis, validating the protective effect of iron-replete macrophages in CKD. Thus, targeting intracellular iron deficiency of kidney macrophages in CKD can serve as a therapeutic opportunity to mitigate disease progression.

Cardiac Transcriptomic Changes Induced by Early CKD in Mice Reveal Novel Pathways Involved in the Pathogenesis of Cardiorenal Syndrome Type 4

Project description:Cardiorenal syndrome (CRS) type 4 is prevalent among the chronic kidney disease (CKD) population, with many patients dying from cardiovascular complications. However, limited data regarding cardiac transcriptional changes induced early by CKD is available. We used a murine unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) model to evaluate cardiac transcriptional regulation at 21 days post-surgery through RNA-seq and bioinformatics. UUO leads to significant kidney injury, low uremia, and pathological cardiac remodeling. RNA-seq analysis identified 76 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in UUO hearts. Upregulated DEGs were significantly enriched in cell cycle and cell division pathways, immune responses, cardiac repair, inflammation, proliferation, oxidative stress, and apoptosis. Gene Set Enrichment Analysis further revealed mitochondrial oxidative bioenergetic pathways, autophagy, and peroxisomal pathways are downregulated in UUO hearts. Vimentin was also identified as an UUO-upregulated transcript. Our results emphasize the relevance of extensive transcriptional and epigenetic changes, mitochondrial dysfunction, homeostasis deregulation, fatty-acid metabolism alterations, and vimentin upregulation in CRS type 4 development.

Prdm16 deficiency leads to age-dependent cardiac hypertrophy, adverse remodeling, mitochondrial dysfunction, and heart failure

Project description:Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is one of the most frequent inherited heart condition and a well-established risk factor for cardiovascular mortality worldwide. Although hypertrophy is traditionally regarded as an adaptive response to increased workload caused by physiological or pathological stress, prolonged hypertrophy can lead to heart failure characterized by impaired systolic function, increased apoptosis, fibrosis, ventricular dilation, and impaired metabolic substrate flexibility. While the key regulators for cardiac hypertrophy are well studied, the role of Prdm16 in this process remains poorly understood. In the present study, we demonstrate that Prdm16 is dispensable for cardiac development. However, it is required in the adult heart to preserve mitochondrial function and inhibit hypertrophy with advanced age. Cardiac-specific deletion of Prdm16 results in cardiac hypertrophy, excessive ventricular fibrosis, mitochondrial dysfunction, and impaired metabolic flexibility, leading to heart failure. We demonstrate that Prdm16 and euchromatic histone-lysine N- methyltransferase factors (Ehmts) act together to reduce the expression of fetal genes reactivated in pathological hypertrophy by inhibiting the functions of pro- hypertrophic transcription factor Myc. Although young Prdm16 knockout mice show normal cardiac function, they are predisposed to develop heart failure in response to metabolic stress. Collectively, our results demonstrate that Prdm16 protects the heart against age-dependent cardiac hypertrophy, fibrosis, mitochondrial dysfunction, adverse metabolic remodeling, and heart failure.

Cardiac Remodeling During Pregnancy With Metabolic Syndrome: Prologue of Pathological Remodeling

Project description:The heart undergoes physiological hypertrophy during pregnancy in healthy individuals. Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is now prevalent in women of child-bearing age and might add risks of adverse cardiovascular events during pregnancy. The present study asks if cardiac remodeling during pregnancy in obese individuals with MetS is abnormal and whether this predisposes them to a higher risk for cardiovascular disorders. The idea that MetS induces pathological cardiac remodeling during pregnancy was studied in a long-term (15 weeks) Western diet–feeding animal model that recapitulated features of human MetS. Pregnant female mice with Western diet (45% kcal fat)–induced MetS were compared with pregnant and nonpregnant females fed a control diet (10% kcal fat). Pregnant mice fed a Western diet had increased heart mass and exhibited key features of pathological hypertrophy, including fibrosis and upregulation of fetal genes associated with pathological hypertrophy. Hearts from pregnant animals with WD-induced MetS had a distinct gene expression profile that could underlie their pathological remodeling. Concurrently, pregnant female mice with MetS showed more severe cardiac hypertrophy and exacerbated cardiac dysfunction when challenged with angiotensin II/phenylephrine infusion after delivery. These results suggest that preexisting MetS could disrupt physiological hypertrophy during pregnancy to produce pathological cardiac remodeling that could predispose the heart to chronic disorders.

A systems biology approach to understand the pathophysiological mechanisms of cardiac pathological hypertrophy associated with rosiglitazone

Project description:Cardiac pathological hypertrophy is associated with a significantly increased risk of coronary heart disease and has been observed in diabetic patients treated with rosiglitazone, whereas most published studies do not suggest a similar increase in risk of cardiovascular events in pioglitazone-treated diabetic subjects. This study sought to understand the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying the disparate cardiovascular effects of rosiglitazone and pioglitazone and yield knowledge as to the causative nature of rosiglitazone-associated cardiac hypertrophy.

Indian Hedgehog release from inflamed epithelia links TNF-alpha to organ fibrosis

Project description:In chronic kidney disease (CKD) and with ageing, individuals lose regenerative capacity after renal injury and are predisposed to progressive fibrosis and cardiovascular disease. With ageing and CKD increased numbers of activated leukocytes are present in the circulation and within the kidney where they correlate with progressive fibrosis. The potential role of activated leukocytes in mediating progressive renal and systemic fibrosis remains incompletely understood. Here, we show that tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNFa) released with injury and aging promotes renal and cardiac fibrosis. We identify a Ubiquitin D expressing population of TNFa induced inflammatory proximal tubular epithelia (iPT) responsible for Indian Hedgehog release in aged and fibrotic kidneys. Indian Hedgehog production by iPT cells activates canonical Hedgehog signalling in Gli1+ stromal cells leading to activation, proliferation and fibrosis deposition. Our data links the immune activation seen in aging and chronic kidney disease to cardio-renal fibrosis. This provides multiple targets for antifibrotic therapies which we validate in murine models of aging and kidney disease.
