Fibrinogen alpha chain promotes the formation of CaOx crystal nuclei by binding to oxalic acid

ABSTRACT: The pathophysiology of Randall's plaque formation has been studied from various perspectives; however, few studies have investigated renal tissue and microenvironmental changes, such as tubular dilation occurring prior to plaque formation. Although previous reports have identified tubular dilation in the renal tissues of patients with kidney stones, the causal relationship between these changes and stone formation remains unclear. A histological approach is needed to determine which sites in the renal tissue are involved in stone formation. We aimed to identify the site of crystal formation and the early histological changes associated with crystal formation, as well as to identify new factors involved in crystal formation by identifying the genes that are specifically upregulated in the tissue and that participate in stone formation. To investigate the molecular changes occurring in the proximal tubules and the novel gene target, we divided the kidneys of each group of rats into the cortex and medulla, extracted the total RNA, and performed DNA microarray analysis.

Polarization profiling of renal macrophages in stone model mice

Project description:We recently reported elimination of renal crystals and migration of macrophages (Mφ) around crystals in hyperoxaluric mice, suggesting Mφs might eliminate crystals. Mφs are of 2 phenotypes: inflammatory (M1) and anti-inflammatory (M2). Because M2Mφs are considered to be involved in tissue repair and regeneration, we focused attention on their suppressive role in renal crystal formation. Hence, we investigated the gene array profiling of renal macrophages in stone model mice and CSF-1-deficient stone model mice.

Polarization profiling of renal macrophages in stone model mice

Project description:We recently reported elimination of renal crystals and migration of macrophages (MM-OM-^F) around crystals in hyperoxaluric mice, suggesting MM-OM-^Fs might eliminate crystals. MM-OM-^Fs are of 2 phenotypes: inflammatory (M1) and anti-inflammatory (M2). Because M2MM-OM-^Fs are considered to be involved in tissue repair and regeneration, we focused attention on their suppressive role in renal crystal formation. Hence, we investigated the gene array profiling of renal macrophages in stone model mice and CSF-1-deficient stone model mice. B6C3Fe a/a-Csf1op/J wild type/homozygous mice were admistered 80mg/kg gyyoxylate (GOX) for 6days, then the kidneys were extracted and sorted CD11b+/CD11c+ macrophages using autoMACS. The gene expression of WT- and op/op-macrophages were investigated using bone marrow derived M1/M2 macrophages as controls.

Oxidative modifications of urinary proteins increase kidney stone risk

Project description:Clinical and animal studies have demonstrated the increasing evidence of oxidative stress in kidney stone disease. Recent findings have shown that the interactions between calcium oxalate (CaOx) crystals and renal tubular cells can promote many cellular events such as cell proliferation, cell death, cellular injury, mitochondrial dysfunction and inflammatory cascade. All of these cellular events are associated with oxidative stress and overproduction of free radicals and reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as superoxide and hydrogen peroxide in renal tubular cells. However, almost all of these references have shown that oxidative stress occurs after the causative crystals have been deposited in the kidney or exposed to renal tubular cells, whereas its primary role as the etiology remained unclear. In this study, we examined effects of oxidative modifications of urinary proteins on CaOx stone formation processes. Urinary proteins were modified by performic oxidation and the presence of oxidatively modified urinary proteins was verified, quantified and characterized by Oxyblot assay and tandem mass spectrometry (nanoLC-ESI-LTQ-Orbitrap-MS/MS). Subsequently, activities of oxidatively modified urinary proteins on CaOx stone formation processes were examined.

Landscape of microenvironment in Randall's plaque by single-cell sequencing

Project description:Randall's plaque is significantly associated with occurrence of nephrolithiasis. However, the microenvironment of Randall's plaque is poorly characterized. To investigate the microenvironment of Randall's plaque, we analyzed single-cell RNA data of 3 Randall's plaque and 3 normal renal papillae tissue and identified 11 different cell types. We screened differentially expressed genes among all cell types between Randall's plaque and normal renal papillae. The microenvironment showed two cell types with multiple stone formation-associated transcriptomic programs. Contrary to previous studies, we did not observe macrophages M1/M2 imbalance. Notably, we detected ossification-associated macrophage is enrich in Randall's plaque and validated GPNMB and ACP5 were potential biomarkers on osteoblasts-associated macrophage. We also identified an endothelial subset harboring active communication (COL15A1+ PCDH17+ endothelial, DPECs) with other cells. Together with Immunofluorescence, we validated ossification-associated macrophage and DPECs are enriched in Randall's plaque tissue. Finally, cell-to-cell communication revealed that Loop of Henle, DPECs and osteoblasts-associated macrophages were the main source of SPP1 signaling. Our work will further the understanding of the microenvironment among Randall's plaque tissues and provide deep insight into immune modulation.

Characterizations of HSP90-interacting complex in renal cells using tandem affinity purification and its potential role in kidney stone formation

Project description:Heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) is a highly abundant molecular chaperone that interacts with many other intracellular proteins to regulate various cellular processes. However, compositions of the HSP90-interacting complex remain underinvestigated. This study thus aimed to characterize such complex in human embryonic kidney (HEK293T) cells under normal physiologic state using tandem affinity purification (TAP) followed by protein identification using an ultrahigh-resolution tandem mass spectrometer (Qq-TOF MS/MS). A total of 32 proteins, including four forms of HSP90 and 16 novel HSP90-interacting partners, were successfully identified from this complex using TAP control to subtract non-specific binders. Co-immunoprecipitation followed by immunoblotting and immunofluorescence co-staining confirmed the association of HSP90 with known (HSP70, α-tubulin, and β-actin) and novel (vimentin, calpain-1, and importin-β1) partners. Knockdown of HSP90 by small-interfering RNA (siHSP90) caused significant changes in levels of HSP70, α-tubulin, β-actin, vimentin, and calpain-1, all of which are calcium oxalate (CaOx) crystal-binding proteins that play significant roles in kidney stone formation. Moreover, crystal-binding capability was significantly decreased in siHSP90-transfected cells as compared to non-transfected control and siControl-transfected cells. In summary, we report herein a number of novel HSP90-interacting proteins in renal cells and demonstrate the potential role of HSP90-interacting complex in kidney stone formation.

Protective cellular mechanism of estrogen against kidney stone formation: A proteomics approach and functional validation

Project description:Kidney stone disease is influenced by multiple factors, including but not limited to age, gender, genetic background, hydration status, diet and drug. Regarding the gender, epidemiologic data across the world has shown that females at the reproductive age (15-49 years) have lower incidence/prevalence of kidney stone disease approximately 1.5-2.5 folds as compared to males at the same age. However, this gap is narrower in the postmenopausal age, whereas the postmenopausal females with higher serum estrogen levels are less likely to have kidney stones. Furthermore, female stone formers (patients with kidney stones) are associated with lower estrogen levels. Therefore, estrogen has been proposed to serve as the protective hormone against kidney stone disease. However, the precise mechanisms underlying such protective effects of estrogen remain unclear and require further investigations. This study thus investigated the effects of estradiol (which is the most prevalent and potent form of estrogen in females at the reproductive age) on cellular proteome of renal tubular cells using a proteomics approach.

Blood gene expression at 3 months post-transplantation predicts 1-year histologic features in renal transplantation

Project description:Histological analysis of biopsy is the gold standard to assess renal allograft status. Furthermore, 1-year protocol biopsy is often performed to evaluated graft outcome. However, since biopsy cannot be performed in a time serial basis, we decided to investigate whether blood can be a good compartment to predict allograft outcome. Gene expression microarrays and a large phenotype have been performed in peripheral blood mononuclear cells from 79 renal transplanted patients taken 3 months after transplantation. We evaluated the association of biological parameters with 4 histological groups defined on renal biopsy taken at 1-year post-transplantation: patients which display normal biopsy (n=45), patients with signs of tubular atrophy and interstitial fibrosis (IFTA) (n=14), with IFTA with inflammation (i-IFTA) (n=14) and patients with alloimmune lesions (n=6) Transcriptomic profile using PBMC from patients showing normal biopsy (n=45), patients with signs of tubular atrophy and interstitial fibrosis (IFTA) (n=14), with IFTA with inflammation (i-IFTA) (n=14) and patients with alloimmune lesions (n=6).

KSP-positive or -negative cells derived from mouse embryonic stem cells

Project description:The goals and objectives of this study was to characterize KSP-positive cells derived from mouse embryonic stem cells. KSP is a specific cadherin expressed in renal tubular cells, so it was predicted that KSP-positive cells have characteristics of renal tubular cells. To purify renal lineage cells from differentiated mouse embryonic stem cells, KSP-positive cells were sorted out by use of anti-KSP antibody. Mouse embryonic stem cells were differentiated with Activin 10ng/ml for 18 days through embryoid body formation. 2 independent experiments were carried out. KSP-negative cells were also purified as negative control.

Proteomic and computational analyses followed by functional validation of protective effects of trigonelline against calcium oxalate-induced renal cell deteriorations

Project description:Trigonelline is a phytoalkaloid commonly found in green and roasted coffee beans. It is also found in decaffeinated coffee. Previous report has shown that trigonelline-rich plant extract exhibits anti-lithiatic effects in a nephrolithiatic rat model. Nevertheless, cellular mechanisms underlying the anti-lithiatic properties of trigonelline remain hazy. Herein, we used nanoLC-ESI-Qq-TOF MS/MS and MaxQuant algorithm to perform label-free quantitative proteomics to identify trigonelline-induced changes in protein expression in MDCK renal cells. From a total of 1,006 and 1,011 proteins identified from control and trigonelline-treated cells, respectively, levels of 62 (23 up-regulated and 39 down-regulated) proteins were significantly changed by trigonelline. Functional enrichment and reactome pathway analyses showed that these 62 altered proteins were related to stress response, cell cycle and cell polarity. Functional validation by corresponding experimental assays revealed that trigonelline prevented calcium oxalate monohydrate crystal-induced renal cell deteriorations by inhibiting crystal-induced overproduction of intracellular reactive oxygen species, cell cycle shift from G0/G1 to G2/M phase, tight junction disruption, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition in renal epithelial cells. These findings provide cellular mechanisms and convincing evidence for the renoprotective effects of trigonelline, particularly in kidney stone prevention.
