Effect of hypertonicity on chromatin accessibility and contribution of NFAT5

ABSTRACT: Understanding the mechanisms underlying cell type-specific gene expression in the kidney is essential to elucidate renal function. Using the Assay for Transposase-Accessible Chromatin with high-throughput sequencing (ATAC-seq) we analyzed open chromatin structures and the involvement of epigenetic mechanisms in mediating gene expression differences between the renal cortex (CTX) and inner medulla (IM). We also examined the role of the nuclear factor of activated T cells 5 (NFAT5), a key regulator of hypertonicity. ATAC-seq analysis was performed on CTX and IM samples from both wild-type (WT) and NFAT5 knockout (KO) mice. This study revealed global differences in chromatin accessibility between renal CTX and IM and the impact of NFAT5 loss on open chromatin regions. Furthermore, spatial localization and NFAT5-promoted chromatin accessibility correlate with differential gene expression and altered promoter binding motif enrichment in CTX and IM. Our findings provide new insights into spatial and NFAT5-promoted transcriptional regulation in the kidney, and their importance for renal function and adaptation to osmotic stress.

Gene expression changes in NFAT5/TonEBP under isotonic and hypertonic conditions

Project description:TonEBP is a transcription factor that promotes cellular accumulation of organic osmolytes in the hypertonic renal medulla by stimulating expression of its target genes. Genetically modified animals with deficient TonEBP activity in the kidney suffer from severe medullary atrophy in association with cell death, demonstrating that TonEBP is essential for the survival of the renal medullary cells. Using both TonEBP knockout cells and RNA interference of TonEBP, we found that TonEBP promoted cellular adaptation to hypertonic stress. Microarray analyses revealed that genetic response to hypertonicity was dominated by TonEBP in that expression of totally different sets of genes was increased by hypertonicity in those cells with TonEBP vs. those without TonEBP activity. Out of over 100 potentially new TonEBP regulated genes, we selected 7 for further analyses and found that their expression was all dependent on TonEBP. RNA interference experiments showed that some of these genes – asporin, insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 5 and 7, and an extracellular lysophosphlipase D – plus Hsp70, a known TonEBP target gene, contributed to the adaptation to hypertonicity without promoting organic osmolyte accumulation. We conclude that TonEBP stimulates multiple cellular pathways for adaptation to hypertonic stress in addition to organic osmolyte accumulation. Quadruplicate samples were collected for each condition and then pooled into a single sample for hybridization to microarrays.

Segment specific loss of NFAT5 function in the kidneys

Project description:Nuclear factor of activated T-cells 5 (NFAT5) is a transcription factor known for its role in osmotic stress adaptation in the renal inner medulla, due to osmotic gradient that is generated between renal cortex and renal inner medulla. However, its broader implications in kidney injury and chronic kidney disease (CKD) are less understood. Here we used two different Cre deleter mice (Ksp1.3-Cre and Aqp2-Cre) to generate tubule segment and even cell type specific NFAT5 deficient mice in the principal cells of the collecting duct (CD) and in the distal nephron starting in the TAL up to the CD and performed extensive gene expression profiling. In both Nfat5 knockout models, we observed massive changes in gene expression pattern, with heightened inflammatory responses and renal injury, culminating in renal fibrosis. Interestingly, inflammatory responses and fibrosis were much more prominent in the Aqp2Cre+/-Nfat5fl/fl mice that lack NFAT5 only in the collecting duct. By analyzing gene expression in the medullary and cortical regions of the kidney separately, we confirmed that the loss of NFAT5 results in kidney injury that extends beyond hypertonic areas. The correlation between the levels of inflammatory response, injury severity, and fibrosis indicates that cytokines are key mediators of stress signals in the kidney. Thus, NFAT5 is essential not only for adapting to osmotic stress but also for regulating cytokine signaling.

Collecting Duct-Specific Inactivation of HNF-1β Leads to Fibrocystic Disease and Impaired Urinary Concentration

Project description:Hepatocyte nuclear factor-1β (HNF-1β) is an essential transcription factor that regulates tissue-specific gene expression in the kidney, liver, pancreas and genitourinary tract. In humans, mutations of HNF-1β cause renal cysts and diabetes (RCAD) and congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract (CAKUT). Inactivation of Hnf-1β in tubular epithelial cells throughout the nephron leads to early-onset cyst formation and postnatal lethality. Here, we used Pkhd1/Cre mice to delete Hnf-1β specifically in renal collecting ducts (CD). Hnf-1β mutant mice survived long-term and developed slowly progressive cystic kidney disease, renal fibrosis, and hydronephrosis. Compared with wild-type littermates, Hnf-1β mutant mice had higher urine volume, lower urine osmolality, and higher water intake. Differences were seen at baseline, following 24h water restriction, and following administration of dDAVP. Circulating ADH levels were similar in wild type and mutant mice. Polyuria, polydipsia, and decreased urine osmolality were present prior to the onset of cyst formation and hydronephrosis. These findings indicated that Hnf-1β mutant mice have a primary defect in urinary concentrating ability. Studies using in vitro hypertonicity response experiments identified NR1H4 (FXR), a transcription factor previously shown to regulate water homeostasis, as a novel HNF-1β target. mIMCD3 cells exposed to hypertonic medium robustly upregulated Fxr mRNA levels; this upregulation was lost in Hnf-1β mutant cells. HNF-1β was bound to the Fxr promoter region in vivo, and Fxr mRNA was significantly downregulated in mutant mice. FXR protein localized to CD in wild-type mice and was almost undetectable in the cyst epithelium of mutant mice. These findings highlight a new and critical role for HNF-1β in urinary concentration and hypertonicity by regulating the transcription of FXR in the CD.

mRNA sequencing of wildtype versus CEP83 knockout hiPSCs at diffirent time points of differentiation to kidney organoids [scRNA-seq]

Project description:Centrosomal protein 83 (CEP83) is a component of the distal appendages proteins of centrioles, which is necessary for the assembly of primary cilia. Previous studies have implicated primary cilia in normal development and tissue homeostasis, including kidney development. The kidney develops from human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSCs) in a stepwise process involving induction of specialized Nephron progenitors (NPs) in the intermediate mesoderm (IM), followed by their differentiation into kidney epithelia. Here, we used CRISPR-cas9 technology to knockout CEP83 in hiPSCs that were differentiated versus the wildtype hiPSCs into IM followed by kidney epithelial differentiation to analyze the role of CEP83 in human kidney epithelial differentiation. We used morphological analyses, gene expression studies and immunostaining to analyze IM and nephron differentiation. Bulk RNA and single cell sequencing showed that CEP83-/- IM cells abnormally upregulate regulatory transcription factors of lateral plate mesoderm (LPM) including OSR1, FOXF1, FOXF2, HAND2 and FEDRR., and downregulate marker genes in specific NPs ncluding; PAX8, HOXB7 and EYA1. Further, wildtype hiPSCs successfully differentiated into kidney organoids that upregulate key nephron markers, including NPHS1, CUBN and GATA3. In contrast, CEP83-/- hiPSCs failed to differentiate into nephron epithelia and didn’t express nephron marker genes. In a human system modeling kidney epithelial differentiation from hiPSCs, our data provide a new insight to the essential role of CEP83 in NPs differentiation and may help to better understand the pathogenesis of CEP83-associated renal developmental defects.

Neutral amino acid transporter SNAT2 protects renal medulla from hypertonicity-induced ferroptosis

Project description:Hypertonicity in renal medulla is essential for urine concentration and water homeostasis. However, how renal medullary collecting duct cells (MCDs) survive and function under the harsh hypertonic stress remains incompletely understood. By using the RNA-seq technique, we identified SNAT2 (slc38a2) as a novel osmoresponsive neutral amino acid transporter in MCD cells. We found that hypertonic stress induced cell death of MCDs mainly via ferroptosis.

Multi-omic and spatial analysis of mouse kidneys highlights sex-specific differences in gene regulation across the lifespan

Project description:We utilized the Xenium single-cell platform to analyze spatial expression patterns for kidneys from female and male mice at W12 and W92. Four distinct kidney zones were identified: the cortex, the outer stripe of the outer medulla (OSOM), the inner stripe of the outer medulla (ISOM), and the inner medulla (IM) based on their histology and cell type compositions. Female kidneys had a thinner cortex and thicker OSOM, while males had a vastly larger IM, contributing to sex-based size differences.
