Single-cell RNA-seq of human kidney organoids [5_250K cells]

ABSTRACT: Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) derived organoids hold great promise for transplantation purposes however technological advances to overcome their massive production while ensuring differentiation fidelity are still missing. Here we develop a new procedure sustaining the derivation of hPSC-kidney organoids to identify a new scalable, uniform, and affordable approach empowering differentiation and cellular diversity. Using single-cell RNA sequencing, confocal image analysis and metabolic assays we show that hPSC-kidney organoids exhibit transcriptional variety and cellular composition which is boosted forcing cell-to-cell contact. To demonstrate the applicability of these findings we infused CRIPSR/Cas9 engineered WT1 GFP kidney organoids during normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) using porcine kidneys. NMP flow patterns showed stable rates among biological experiments. Samples were analyzed by in situ hybridization, confocal microscopy, and flow cytometry identifying cells of human origin after infusion. This work paves the way to the utilization of hPSC-kidney organoids for ex vivo cell-based therapies to improve graft function before transplantation.

Conditioning of porcine kidneys during dynamic preservation with exosomes derived from Urine Progenitor Cells

Project description:Backgroud: among strategies to limit ischemia/reperfusion (IR) injuries in transplantation, cell therapy using stem cells to condition/repair transplanted organ appears promising. We hypothesized that using a cell therapy based on exosomes derived from Urine Progenitor Cells (UPCs) during hypothermic and normothermic machine perfusion can prevent IR-related kidney damages. Methods: we isolated and characterized porcine UPCs and their exosomes (Exo). Then these were used in an ex vivo preclinical porcine kidney preservation model. Kidneys were subjected to warm ischemia (32min) then preserved by Hypothermic Machine Perfusion (HMP) for 24h before 5h of Normothermic Machine Perfusion (NMP). Three groups were performed (n=5-6): Group 1 (G1): HMP/vehicle + NMP/vehicle, Group 2 (G2): HMP/Exo + NMP/vehicle, Group 3 (G3): HMP/Exo + NMP/Exo. Results: porcine UPCs were successfully isolated from urine and fully characterized as well as their exosomes which were found of expected size/phenotype. RNA-seq performed on kidney biopsies showed different profiles between G1 and G3 with regulation of potential IR targets of Exo therapy. Conclusions: we showed the feasibility/efficacy of UPC-exosomes for hypothermic/normothermic kidney conditioning prior to transplantation, paving the way of combining machine perfusion with exosome-based cell therapy for organ conditioning.

Bile proteome reveals biliary regeneration during normothermic preservation of human donor livers

Project description:Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) after static cold storage is increasingly used for preservation and assessment of human donor livers prior to transplantation. Biliary viability assessment during NMP reduces the risk of post-transplant biliary complications. However, understanding molecular changes in the biliary system during NMP remains incomplete. Here, we performed RNA-seq analysis of donor livers undergoing NMP treatment and compared livers with biliary viability scores that were acceptable for transplantation vs those that were not.

Protein Expression in Liver Tissue and Bile of Elderly Sprague-Dawley Rats after Normothermic Machine Perfusion

Project description:Liver are frequently declined for transplantation due to the donor age. It is still unclear how donor age affects the graft quality. Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) has been proposed as a useful assessment tool prior to transplantation. We aimed to compare the performance of young and elderly rat liver grafts in a small animal NMP model. Grafts from 24 rats were procured, either 3 or 12 months old and perfused for 6 hours at 37°C or stored on ice as a reference group (n=6/group). Livers in both NMP groups cleared lactate and produced bile, with similar pressure, bile production, and pH levels. However, older rat livers showed higher peak transaminase and urea levels. Proteomic analysis revealed differences in protein composition, particularly higher levels of proteins related to oxidoreductase and catalytic activity in older livers. Older age appeared to increase susceptibility to oxidative stress in the livers.

Viability of discarded human livers during normothermic machine perfusion is associated with activation of repair mechanisms

Project description:Background and Aims: Liver transplantation provides an effective cure for end-stage liver disease but is hampered by a severe organ shortage. Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) of donor livers allows dynamic preservation in addition to viability assessment prior to transplantation. Little is known about the injury and repair mechanisms induced during NMP. Therefore, we examined gene and protein expression changes in a cohort of discarded human livers during NMP, stratified by liver viability. Approach and Results: 6 human livers from donation after circulatory death (DCD) underwent 12 hours of NMP, of which 3 met viability criteria. We applied bulk transcriptomics to evaluate differences in gene expression relating to injury, repair, and regenerative responses among livers based on viability. Viable livers demonstrated robust activation of innate immunity after 3 hours of NMP followed by enrichment of pro-repair and pro-survival mechanisms. Nonviable livers demonstrated delayed and persistent enrichment of innate immune responses. Viable livers demonstrated effective induction of autophagy, the cellular repair and homeostasis pathway, compared to nonviable livers. Enrichment of pro-survival signaling was also broader in these livers. Conclusions: NMP of discarded DCD human livers results in ischemia-reperfusion injury, but importantly activates autophagy as a means of cellular repair. More pronounced activation of autophagy was seen in livers that met viability criteria for transplantation. Therapeutic targeting of the autophagy mechanism may allow rehabilitation of nonviable livers for transplantation.

Gene expression signatures for rat liver grafts

Project description:Acute rejection remains an important risk factor affecting the survival of recipients following transplantation. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) are used in the treatment of organ transplantation due to their immunomodulatory ability. BMMSCs were isolated from rat bone marrow and modified with the adenovirus for heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1) gene. Saline solution, BMMSCs or HO-1/BMMSCs were perfused into the donor liver in vitro using a normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) system, followed by liver transplantation. The liver grafts were collected at 7 days post-transplantation. Gene chip technology was used to detect differential gene expression.

Urine recirculation prolongs normothermic kidney perfusion for via more optimal metabolic homeostasis – a proteomics study

Project description:We describe a proteomics analysis to determine the molecular differences between normothermically perfused (normothermic machine perfusion, NMP) human kidneys with urine recirculation (URC) and urine replacement (UR). Proteins were extracted from 16 kidney biopsies with URC (n=8 donors after brain death (DBD), n=8 donors after circulatory death (DCD)) and three with UR (n=2 DBD, n=1 DCD), followed by quantitative analysis by mass spectrometry. Damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) were decreased in kidney tissue after six hours NMP with URC, suggesting reduced inflammation. Vasoconstriction was also attenuated in kidneys with URC as angiotensinogen levels were reduced. Strikingly, kidneys became metabolically active during NMP, which could be enhanced and prolonged by URC. For instance, mitochondrial succinate dehydrogenase enzyme levels as well as carbonic anhydrase were enhanced with URC, contributing to pH stabilisation. Levels of cytosolic and the mitochondrial phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase were elevated after 24 hours of NMP, more prevalent in DCD than DBD tissue. Key enzymes involved in glucose metabolism were also increased after twelve and 24 hours of NMP with URC, including mitochondrial malate dehydrogenase and glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase, predominantly in DCD tissue. We conclude that NMP with URC permits prolonged preservation and revitalises metabolism to possibly minimize better cope with ischemia reperfusion injury in discarded kidneys.

Transplanted human organoids empower PK/PD assessment of drug candidate for the clinic

Project description:Pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) studies are an essential component of pre-clinical drug discovery. Current best approaches for PK/PD studies, including the analysis of novel kidney disease targeting therapeutic agents, are limited to animal models with unclear translatability to the human condition. To address this challenge, we developed a novel approach for PK/PD studies using transplanted human kidney organoids. We performed PK studies with GFB-887, an investigational new drug now in Phase 2 trials. Orally dosed GFB-887 to athymic rats that had undergone organoid transplantation resulted in measurable drug exposure in human transplanted organoids. Importantly, we established the efficacy of orally dosed GFB-887 in PD studies, where quantitative analysis showed significant protection of kidney filter cells in human organoids and endogenous rat host kidneys. This widely applicable approach demonstrates, for the first time, feasibility of using transplanted human organoids in PK/PD studies, empowering organoids to revolutionize drug discovery.

Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) inhibits proinflammatory responses in the liver and promotes regeneration

Project description:Background and Aims: Liver transplantation is a successful treatment for patients with liver failure. However, organ shortage results in over 11% of patients loosing their chance of a transplant due to worsening of their liver disease. Ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) is the major cause leading to graft loss after liver transplantation. Therefore, novel methods of organ-preservation have been developed in recent years to minimize IRI. One such device is the OrganOx metra, a normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) device providing oxygen and nutrition to allow aerobic metabolism and minimizing IRI. OrganOx metra has presented with several advantages compared to conventional cold storage (CS). We aimed to confirm the impact of NMP on reducing IRI and to define the underling mechanisms. Methods: We compared 12 NMP with 27 CS-preserved livers by performing gene microarray, immunoprofiling of hepatic lymphocytes and immunochemistry staining of liver tissues for assessing necrosis, platelet deposition and neutrophil infiltration, and the status of steatosis after NMP or CS pre- and post-reperfusion. Results: Recipients receiving NMP grafts showed significantly lower peak AST levels than those receiving CS grafts. NMP altered gene-expression profiles of liver tissue from pro-inflammation to pro-healing and regeneration. NMP also reduced the number of IFN- and IL-17 producing T cells and enlarged CD4posCD25highCD127negFOXP3pos Treg pool. NMP liver tissues showed less necrosis and apoptosis in the parenchyma and fewer neutrophils and platelet infiltration compared to CS liver tissues. Conclusion: Reduced IRI in NMP recipients was the consequence of the combination of inhibiting inflammation and promoting graft regeneration.

Gene expression profiling of human livers during normothermic machine perfusion

Project description:Normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) has been successfully implemented in clinical routine of liver transplantation over the past years. However, little is known about the mechanisms how NMP impacts on the transcriptome of a human donor liver. We herein examined gene expression profiles in transplanted and non-transplanted livers over NMP time. 50 livers subjected to NMP were included in this study. 30 were transplanted after a maximum of 20 hours (h) perfusion, while 15 were discarded due to poor performance. Biopsies were collected befor eNP (PRE), 1h, 6h, 12h, 20h of NMP and after reperfusion. Next-generation sequencing was applied in liver biopsies to assess differential gene expression over perfusion time. Perfusate samples were collected regularly to monitor liver function. Comparison in differential gene expression between PRE and 20h NMP showed 415 upregulated and 727 downregulated genes. Most significantly upregulated genes were associated with extra cellular matrix organization, cell growth/differentiation processes and cytokine signaling. A set of genes were identified which were significantly differentially expressed and important for classification of non-transplanted vs transplanted biopsies, especially at 12 and 20h of NMP. A 7-gene-signature showed good separation already at 6H NMP, thereby CD274 (PD-L1) expression was ponted out as most important.

TISSUE AND URINARY PROTEOMIC ANALYSIS OF KIDNEYS UNDERGOING SHORT PERIOD OF NORMOTHERMIC MACHINE PERFUSION.

Project description:To identify the main biological effects of the normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) in marginal kidneys, we measured, by mass spectrometry analysis, changes in the proteomic profile of kidney tissues and urines of eight organs reconditioned for 120 minutes (by a Kidney Assist device). Biopsy specimens were taken at the time of the pre-implantation histological evaluation (T-1), at the start of back table preparation (T0), and after 60 (T60) and 120(T120) minutes. Urine were collected at T0, T30, T60 and T120. Several bioinformatics/statistical algorithms (including SVM and PLS-DA) were used to select the most discriminative proteins. Bioinformatics analysis showed that, during NMP, a large number of proteins resulted down- or up-regulated in the kidneys (169 and 196, respectively). SVM and PLS-DA analysis restricted this panel to 50 top-discriminative proteins. Among these, 11 proteins resulted similarly up-regulated(LXN, ETFB, NUDT3, CYCS and UQCRC1)and down-regulated after NMP treatment (CFHR3, C1S, CFI, KNG1, SERPINC1, F9)in urine.Functional analysis, then, revealed that the most up-regulated proteins were involved in the oxidative phosphorylation system (OXPHOS) and ATPsynthesis, while thoseunder-expressed were implicated in the complement and coagulation cascade.Our proteomic analysis demonstrated that NMP (also for a brief period of time) may induce substantial metabolic and biochemical changes in marginal organs. This encourages use of this technology in clinic.
