Project description:The renal distal convoluted tubule DCT is a short part of the distal nephron with specific functions transporting ions and thereby modifying Na, Ca, Mg, K balance A transcriptomic analysis of the DCT was performed to identify specific gene expression which would implicate those genes in specific DCT function Fluorescent DCT (EGFP+) were sorted out from a renal tubule suspension by a COPAS (Complex Object Parametric analyser and sorter). EGFP- and the total (ALL) fractions were also sorted by COPAS. Gene expression for each fractions (EGFP+, EGFP-, ALL) was performed in 4 mice

Project description:The distal convoluted tubule (DCT) plays a key role in the fine-tuning of renal Mg2+ reabsorption. In recent years, hereditary magnesium (Mg2+) transport disorders have helped to identify important players in DCT Mg2+ homeostasis. Here, we report the Mg2+-sensitive transcriptional expression of the DCT transcriptome using gene expression microarray analysis. Mice expressing eGFP under a DCT-specific promoter were subjected to Mg2+-deficient or Mg2+-enriched diets. Subsequently, the Complex Object Parametric Analyzer and Sorter (COPAS) allowed isolation of eGFP-positive DCT cells. RNA extracts were subjected to pair-wise microarray analysis, high vs. low Mg2+. Of all genes in the genome, 46 were shown to be differentially expressed with a minimal fold-change of 2. Several known magnesiotropic genes, such as Trpm6 and Parvalbumin, were upregulated in the low Mg2+ fraction. Moreover, new genes were identified that are potentially involved in renal Mg2+ homeostasis. To confirm that the selected candidate genes are regulated by dietary Mg2+ availability, the expression levels of Slc41a3, Pcbd1, Tbc1d4 and Umod were determined by RT-PCR analysis. Indeed, all four genes were shown to be significantly upregulated in mice fed the Mg2+-deficient diet. In conclusion, by elucidating the Mg2+-sensitive DCT transcriptome, new candidate players in renal Mg2+ homeostasis were identified.

In conclusion, by elucidating the Mg2+-sensitive DCT transcriptome, new candidate players in renal Mg2+ homeostasis were identified. RNA samples were isolated from PV-eGFP-positive tubules from mice fed on a low (L-samples) or high (H-samples) magnesium diet. Littermate H and L samples were labeled and put on mouse microarrays together. Two of the four sample sets were analyzed in dye-swap to compensate for dye-biases.

Project description:α-Klotho has emerged as a powerful regulator of the ageing process. To-date, the expression profile of α-Klotho in human tissues is unknown and its existence in some human tissue types is subject to much controversy. Objective: This is the first study to characterize system-wide tissue expression of transmembrane α-Klotho in humans. We have employed next generation targeted proteomic analysis using Parallel Reaction Monitoring (PRM) in parallel with conventional antibody-based methods to determine the expression and spatial distribution of human α-Klotho expression in health. Results: The distribution of α-Klotho in human tissues from various organ systems, including arterial, epithelial, endocrine, reproductive and neuronal tissues was first identified by immunohistochemistry. Kidney tissues showed strong α-Klotho expression, while liver did not reveal a detectable signal. These results were next confirmed by western blotting of both whole tissues and primary cells. To validate our antibody-based results, α-Klotho expressing tissues were subjected to PRM mass spectrometry identifying peptides specific for the full length, transmembrane α-Klotho isoform. Conclusions: The data presented confirms α-Klotho expression in the kidney tubule and in artery, and provides evidence of α-Klotho expression across organ systems and cell-types that have not previously been described in humans.

Project description:The expression profiles of miRNAs in klotho-deficient and wild-type mice were examined by means of GenopalM-BM-.-MICM DNA chips. The data suggested that there was a difference in the expression of miRNAs between klotho-deficient and wild-type mice. Small RNA samples prevared from 5-week-old klotho-deficient and wild-type mice were examined.

Project description:Klotho functions as an aging suppressor, which, in mice, extends lifespan when overexpressed and accelerates development of aging-like phenotypes when disrupted. Klotho is mainly expressed in brain and kidney and is secreted into the serum and CSF. We have previously shown that Klotho is reduced in brains of old monkeys, rats and mice. We further reported the ability of Klotho to enhance oligodendrocyte differentiation and myelination. Here we examined the effects of Klotho on MO3.13, a human oligodendroglioma cell line in order to determine the potential role of Klotho as a tumor suppressor. We show that exogenous Klotho affects the ERK and Akt signaling pathways and decreases the proliferative abilities of MO3.13 cells. Furthermore, microarray analysis of Klotho-treated MO3.13 cells reveals a massive change in gene expression with 80% of the differentially expressed genes being downregulated. Using gene set enrichment analysis we predicted potential transcription factors involved in regulating Klotho-treated MO3.13 cells and found that these cells are highly enriched in the gene sets, that are similarly observed in cancer, cardiovascular disease, stress, aging and hormone-related chemical and genetic perturbations. Since Klotho is downregulated in all brain tumors tested to date, enhancing Klotho has therapeutic potential for treating brain malignancies. 6 Samples

Project description:Mutations of the β-glucuronidase protein α-Klotho have been associated with premature aging, and altered cognitive function. Although highly expressed in specific areas of the brain, Klotho functions in the central nervous system remain unknow. Here, we show that cultured hippocampal neurons respond to insulin and glutamate stimulation by elevating Klotho protein levels. Conversely, AMPA and NMDA antagonism suppress neuronal Klotho expression. We also provide evidence that soluble Klotho enhances astrocytic aerobic glycolysis by hindering pyruvate metabolism through the mitochondria, and stimulating its processing by lactate dehydrogenase. Pharmacological inhibition of FGFR1, Erk phosphorylation, and monocarboxylic acid transporters prevents Klotho-induced lactate release from astrocytes. Taken together these data suggest Klotho is a potential new player in the metabolic coupling between neurons and astrocytes. Neuronal glutamatergic activity and insulin modulation elicit Klotho release, which in turn stimulates astrocytic lactate formation and release. Lactate can then be used by neurons as a metabolic substrate contributing to fulfill their elevated energy requirements.

Project description:The expression profiles of miRNAs in klotho-deficient and wild-type mouse brain subregions were examined. The data indicated that little or no marked difference in the miRNA expression was detected between them. Twelve samples prevared from 4- or 5-week-old klotho-deficient and wild-type mouse brain tissues (cerebrum, cerebellum and hippocampus) were examined.

Project description:Study the role of klotho as a tumor suppressor in colorectal cancer. [abstract] Klotho is an anti-aging transmembrane protein, which can be shed and function as a hormone. Accumulating data indicate klotho as a tumor suppressor in a wide array of malignancies and indicate the subdomain KL1 as the active region of the protein. We aimed to study the role of klotho as a tumor suppressor in colorectal cancer. Bioinformatics analyses of TCGA datasets indicated reduced klotho mRNA levels in human colorectal cancer, along with negative regulation of klotho expression by hypermethylation of the promoter and 1st exon, and hypomethylation of an area within the gene. Overexpression or treatment with klotho or KL1 inhibited proliferation of colorectal cancer cells in vitro. The in vivo activity of klotho and KL1 was examined using two models recapitulating development of tumors in the normal colonic environment of immune-competent mice. Treatment with klotho inhibited formation of colon polyps induced by the carcinogen azoxymethane, and KL1 treatment slowed growth of orthotopically-implanted colorectal tumors. Gene expression array revealed that klotho and KL1 expression enhanced the unfolded protein response (UPR) and this was further established by increased levels of spliced XBP1, GRP78 and phosphorylated eIF2α. Furthermore, attenuation of the UPR partially abrogated klotho tumor suppressor activity. In conclusion, this study indicates klotho as a tumor suppressor in colorectal cancer and identifies, for the first time, the UPR as a pathway mediating klotho activities in cancer. These data suggest that administration of exogenous klotho or KL1 may serve as a novel strategy for prevention and treatment of colorectal cancer.
