Project description:Fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF23), a circulating protein produced in bone, causes renal inorganic phosphate (Pi) wasting by down-regulation of sodium phosphate co-transporter 2a (Npt2a). The mechanism behind this action is unknown. We have previously generated transgenic mice (TG) expressing human wild-type FGF23 under the control of the α1 (I) collagen promoter. In this study we performed a large scale gene expression study of kidneys from TG mice and wild-type littermates. Several genes that play a role in Pi regulation had decreased expression levels, such as Npt2a, but also Pdzk1 which is a scaffolding protein known to interact with NPT2a. Importantly, the Klotho gene, a suggested crucial co-factor for FGF23 receptor binding and activation, was the most affected decreased gene. However, other genes proposed to regulate Pi levels, such as secreted Frizzled Related Protein 4 (sFRP4), Na+/H+ exchanger regulatory factor 1 (NHERF1) and the FGF-receptors 1-4, revealed no changes. Interestingly, expression levels of inflammatory response genes were increased and histological analysis revealed tubular nephropathy in the TG mice kidneys. In conclusion, FGF23 TG mice have altered kidney gene expression levels of several genes thought to be part of Pi homeostasis and an increase in inflammatory response genes, data supported by histological analysis. These findings may lead to further understanding of how FGF23 mediates its actions on renal Pi regulation. Experiment Overall Design: Five kidneys from FGF23 TG mice and five kidneys from WT littermates was used for Affymetrix Genechip analysis. One Genechip was used/animal. Animals were 8 weeks old when kidneys were collected.

Project description:Bone-derived hormone FGF23 and its co-receptor Klotho form a trimeric complex with FGFRs in target tissues, thus governing physiological FGF23 actions. Prolonged excess FGF23 levels in conditions like chronic kidney disease (CKD) may have cardiotoxic and inflammatory effects without requiring Klotho as a coreceptor. If and how FGF23 functions independently of Klotho is a topic of significant interest. Using in-vitro transcriptomics and further bioinformatics analysis, here we show that transient-low FGF23 treatment (~physiological) in presence of Klotho exhibit canonical signaling. However lack of Klotho led to almost no change in transcriptomics after FGF23 treatment. On the other hand, prolonged-excess FGF23 treatment (~pathological) revealed many novels targets of FGF23, which are also emerging biomarkers of CKD, suggesting FGF23 may activate these molecules in CKD. Remarkably, Klotho acted as a molecular switch by regulating, together with FGF23, the above-mentioned transcripts, thus determining the fate of FGF23 signaling. Overall, our findings provide proof-of-principle evidence for the Klotho dependent and independent FGF23 actions, which may hold great potential for investigating a precise role of FGF23 in health and disease.

Project description:FGF23 is a bone-derived hormone that mediates renal phosphate reabsorption and 1,25(OH)2 vitamin D metabolism via its required co-receptor alpha-Klotho (KL). The functional pathways guiding this hormone’s activity in kidney have not been studied extensively, and whether using other factors with overlapping signaling profiles to produce FGF23-like responses is unclear. To map FGF23-related genes, gene array and single-cell RNA sequencing were utilized on wild type mouse kidneys. After identifying Heparin-binding EGF-like growth factor (HBEGF) as an up-regulated gene in response to FGF23 delivery, KL-null and phosphate-deficient diet fed mouse models and in vitro experiments were utilized to further test HBEGF bioactivity in kidney. Gene array demonstrated that HBEGF was significantly up-regulated following FGF23 delivery to wild type (WT) mice. Next, mice injected with HBEGF had phenotypes consistent with partial FGF23-mimetic activity including robust induction of EGR1, and increased CYP24A1 mRNAs. Single cell RNA sequencing showed overlapping HBEGF and EGFR expression in the proximal tubule (PT), and KL expression in PT and distal tubule (DT) segments. In KL-null mice devoid of canonical FGF23 signaling, HBEGF injections significantly increased EGR1 and CYP24A, and correction of basally-elevated CYP27B1 was observed. In addition, mice placed on a phosphate deficient diet to suppress FGF23 had endogenously increased CYP27B1 mRNA, which was rescued in mice receiving HBEGF. In HEK293 renal epithelial cells, HBEGF and FGF23 increased CYP24A1 mRNA. Targeting pathways known to be downstream of FGF23 in kidney may help to control renal phosphate handling in diseases of altered FGF23 bioactivity.

Project description:FGF23 via its coreceptor αKlotho (KL) provides critical control of phosphate metabolism, which is altered in rare and very common syndromes. However, the spatial-temporal mechanisms dictating renal FGF23 functions remain poorly understood, thus developing approaches to modify specific FGF23-dictated pathways has proven problematic. Herein, wild type mice were injected with rFGF23 for 1, 4 and 12h and renal FGF23 bioactivity was determined at single cell resolution. Computational analysis identified distinct epithelial, endothelial, stromal, and immune cell clusters, with differential expressional analysis uniquely tracking FGF23 bioactivity at each time point. FGF23 actions were sex independent but critically relied upon constitutive KL expression mapped within proximal tubule (S1-S3) and distal tubule (DCT/CNT) cell sub-populations. Temporal KL-dependent FGF23 responses drove unique and transient cellular identities, including genes in key MAPK- and vitamin D-metabolic pathways via early- (AP-1-related) and late-phase (EIF2 signaling) transcriptional regulons. Combining ATACseq/RNAseq data from a cell line stably expressing KL with the in vivo scRNAseq pinpointed genomic accessibility changes in MAPK-dependent genes, including the identification of FGF23-dependent EGR1 distal enhancers. Finally, we isolated unexpected crosstalk between FGF23-mediated MAPK signaling and pro-inflammatory TNF receptor activation via NF-κB, which blocked FGF23 bioactivity in vitro and in vivo. Collectively, our findings have uncovered novel pathways at the single cell level that likely influence FGF23-dependent disease mechanisms.

Project description:Epidemiological studies indicate that adverse intrauterine and postnatal environment has a long-lasting role in chronic kidney disease (CKD) development. Epigenetic information can represent a plausible carrier for mediating this "programming" effect. Here we demonstrate that genome-wide cytosine methylation patterns of healthy and CKD tubule samples obtained from patients show significant differences. We rarely observed differentially methylated regions (DMR) on promoters. Histone modification-based kidney specific genome-wide gene regulatory region annotation maps (promoters, enhancers, transcribed and repressed regions) were generated. DMRs mostly overlapped with putative enhancer regions and were enriched in consensus binding sequences for important renal transcription factors, indicating their importance in gene expression regulation. A core set of genes, including transforming growth factors and collagens, showed cytosine methylation changes correlating with downstream transcript levels. Our report raises the possibility that epigenetic dysregulation plays a role in CKD development via influencing core profibrotic pathways. HG18_HELP array We used custom-commercial array to detail the differences of methylation regions of human tubule epithelial cells between chronic kidney disease and normal. We sought to decrease the cell type heterogeneity of kidney tissues to increase the resolution of methylation profiles. To that end, microdissected human kidney tissue from both chronic kidney disease patient and normal are used for the HELP-assay (HpaII tiny fragment Enrichment by Ligation-mediated PCR) and hybridization on Roche NimbleGen microarrays.

Project description:Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is characterized by a slow and gradual loss of kidney function, with glomerular filtration loss over months or years, inevitably leading to end-stage renal disease. The renal failure resulting from this irreversible process derives from fibrotic lesions of each compartment of the kidney; glomerulosclerosis, vascular sclerosis, and tubulointerstitial fibrosis. Here, we aimed to specify CKD-related injury markers through proteomics analysis in animal kidney tissues.
