Project description:The mechanism by which phosphorus levels are maintained in the body was investigated by analyzing changes in gene expression in the rat kidney following administration of a high-phosphorus diet. Male Wistar rats were fed a high phosphorous (HP) diet containing 1.2% phosphorous, or 0.3% HP as a control, for 24 days. Phosphorous retention was not significantly increased in HP rats, but fractional excretion of phosphorus was significantly increased in the HP group compared to controls, with an excessive amount of the ingested phosphorus being passed through the body. DNA microarray analysis of kidney tissue from both groups revealed changes in gene expression profile induced by a HP diet. Among the genes that were upregulated, gene ontology (GO) terms related to ossification, collagen fibril organization, and inflammation and immune response were significantly enriched. In particular, there was significant upregulation of type IIb sodium-dependent phosphate transporter (NaPi-IIb) in the HP rat kidney compared to control rats. This upregulation was confirmed by in situ hybridization. Discreet signals for NaPi-IIb in both the cortex and medulla of the kidney were apparent in the HP group, while the corresponding signals were much weaker in the control group. Immunohistochemical analysis showed that NaPi-IIb localized to the basolateral side of kidney epithelial cells surrounding the urinary duct in HP rats but not in control animals. These data suggest that NaPi-IIb is upregulated in the kidney in response to the active excretion of phosphate in HP diet-fed rats. Male Wistar rats (4 weeks old) were purchased from Japan SLC Co. (Hamamatsu, Japan) and individually housed in metabolic cages under controlled conditions of 22±1°C and a 12-hour light/dark cycle (lights on from 08:00 to 20:00 daily). Two different diets containing 0.3% phosphorous (control diet) and 1.2% phosphorous (HP diet) were prepared based on the AIN-93G diet (Table 1). All rats were fed the control diet for a 7-day acclimatization period. After acclimatization, rats were divided into two groups of similar mean body weight (n = 5 each) and then fed either the control or the HP diet for 24 days. The animals were allowed to eat ad libitum and had free access to water (MilliQ water).The protocol for the animal experiments was approved by the Animal Use Committee of the Faculty of Agriculture at The University of Tokyo.

Project description:A high phosphorus (HP) diet causes disorders of renal function, bone metabolism, and vascular function. We previously demonstrated that DNA microarray analysis is an appropriate method to comprehensively evaluate the effects of a HP diet on kidney dysfunction such as calcification, fibrillization, and inflammation. We reported that type IIb sodium-dependent phosphate transporter is significantly up-regulated in this context. In the present study, we performed DNA microarray analysis to investigate the effects of a HP diet on the liver, which plays a pivotal role in energy metabolism. DNA microarray analysis was performed with total RNA isolated from the livers of rats fed a control diet (containing 0.3% phosphorus) or a HP diet (containing 1.2% phosphorus). Gene Ontology analysis of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) revealed that the HP diet induced down-regulation of genes involved in hepatic amino acid catabolism and lipogenesis, while genes related to fatty acid β-oxidation process were up-regulated. Although genes related to fatty acid biosynthesis were down-regulated in HP diet-fed rats, genes important for the elongation and desaturation reactions of omega-3 and -6 fatty acids were up-regulated. Concentrations of hepatic arachidonic acid and eicosapentaenoic acid were increased in HP diet-fed rats. These essential fatty acids activate peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPARα), a transcription factor for fatty acid β-oxidation. Evaluation of the upstream regulators of DEGs using Ingenuity Pathway Analysis indicated that PPARα was activated in the livers of HP diet-fed rats. Furthermore, the serum concentration of fibroblast growth factor 21, a hormone secreted from the liver that promotes fatty acid utilization in adipose tissue as a PPARα target gene, was higher (p = 0.054) in HP diet-fed rats than in control diet-fed rats. These data suggest that a HP diet enhances energy expenditure through the utilization of free fatty acids released via lipolysis of white adipose tissue.

Project description:Although disturbed phosphate metabolism frequently accompanies chronic kidney disease, it is unclear whether it contributes to the progression of renal dysfunction. Here, we show that urinary phosphate-containing nanoparticles promote kidney injury in salt-sensitive hypertension. Remarkably, four weeks of high salt loading resulted in a 2.5-fold increase in urinary phosphate excretion in Dahl salt-sensitive rats on a normal phosphorus diet. Inhibition of intestinal phosphate absorption using sucroferric oxyhydroxide (SF) in this model suppressed phosphaturia, attenuating glomerulosclerosis and tubulointerstitial injury without significantly affecting serum phosphate, blood pressure, or urinary sodium levels. In the kidney, macrophage infiltration and inflammatory cytokine induction were ameliorated by SF. Additionally, macrophage infiltration but not myofibril hypertrophy was alleviated in the heart. In vitro, phosphate loading to proximal tubule cells significantly increased inflammatory cytokine Ccl2, which was abolished by the removal of phosphate-containing nanoparticles but not by the knockdown of phosphate transporter Slc34a1. Finally, transcriptome analysis revealed a potential role of complement C1q in renal inflammation associated with disturbed phosphate metabolism. These data demonstrate that increased phosphaturia promotes inflammation and renal injury from an early stage of salt-sensitive hypertension, and suggest the need for interventions against subclinical phosphate accumulation to improve the prognosis of hypertensive kidney disease.

Project description:Background: Disease severity of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is influenced by diet. Dietary protein, a recognized cyst-accelerating factor, is catabolized into amino acids (AA) and delivered to the kidney leading to renal hypertrophy. Injury-induced hypertrophic signaling in ADPKD results in increased macrophage (MФ) activation and inflammation followed by cyst growth. We hypothesize that the cystogenesis-prompting effects of HP diet are caused by increased delivery of specific AA to the kidney, ultimately stimulating MФs to promote cyst progression. Methods: Pkd1 flox/flox mice with and without Cre (CAGG-ER) were given tamoxifen to induce global gene deletion (Pkd1KO). Pkd1KO mice were fed either a low (LP; 6%), normal (NP; 18%), or high (HP; 60%) diet for 1 week (early) or 6 weeks (chronic). Mice were then euthanized and tissues were used for histology, immunofluorescence and various biochemical assays. One week fed kidney tissue was cell sorted to isolate tubular epithelial cells for RNA sequencing. Results: Chronic dietary protein load in Pkd1KO mice increased kidney weight, number of kidney infiltrating and resident MФs, chemokines, cytokines and cystic index compared to LP diet fed mice. Accelerated cyst growth induced by chronic HP were attenuated by liposomal clodronate-mediated MФ depletion. Early HP diet fed Pkd1KO mice had larger cystic kidneys compared to NP or LP fed counterparts, but without increases in the number of kidney MФs, cytokines, or markers of tubular injury. RNA sequencing of tubular epithelial cells in HP compared to NP or LP diet group revealed increased expression of sodium-glutamine transporter Snat3, chloride channel Clcnka, and gluconeogenesis marker Pepck1, accompanied by increased excretion of urinary ammonia, a byproduct of glutamine. Conclusion: Chronic dietary protein load-induced renal hypertrophy and accelerated cyst growth in Pkd1KO mice is dependent on both infiltrating and resident MФ recruitment and subsequent inflammatory response. Early cyst expansion by HP diet, however, is relient on increased delivery of glutamine to kidney epithelial cells, driving downstream metabolic changes prior to inflammatory provocation.

Project description:Studying the endophyte strains of poplar that help the plant solubilize phosphate, we observed direct evidence of endophyte-promoted phosphorous fixation. Using synchrotron x-ray fluorescence (SR-XRF) microscopy combined with x-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES), we visualized the nutrient phosphorous inside poplar roots inoculated by the selected endophytes and found that the phosphorus is fixated in the form of organic phosphate inside the root. Proteomics characterization on poplar roots revealed novel proteins and metabolic pathways involved in endophyte enriched phosphorus uptake.

Project description:Despite a variety of seasoning ingredients in diets, little is known about their cooperative effect on animal metabolism. We fed rats a diet containing 30 wt.% instant noodle with a 26% fat-to-energy ratio for 30 days (N-group). Compared with rats that were fed the same diet without seasonings (C-group), the N-group showed lower liver triacylglycerol levels and higher fecal cholesterol levels. To assess the mechanisms underlying this phenotype, we conducted transcriptome analyses of the hypothalamic–pituitary axis (HP), liver and white adipose tissue (WAT). Our results suggest that these ingredients may affect lipid homeostasis via the HP axis.

Project description:A high phosphorus intake has been associated with various metabolic disorders, including chronic kidney disease, cardiovascular disease, and osteoporosis. Recent studies have demonstrated the effects of dietary phosphorus on lipid and glucose metabolism. This study investigated the impact of a high-phosphorus diet on mouse skeletal muscle lipid composition and gene transcription. Adult male mice (n = 12/group) received either a diet with an adequate (0.3%) or a high (1.2%) phosphorus concentration for 6 weeks. The lipidome analysis showed that among the 17 analyzed lipid classes, the concentrations of three classes were reduced in the high phosphorus group compared to the adequate phosphorus group. These classes were phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidylglycerol (PG), and lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) (p < 0.05). Out of the three hundred and twenty-three individual lipid species analyzed, forty-nine showed reduced concentrations, while three showed increased concentrations in the high phosphorus group compared to the adequate phosphorus group. The muscle transcriptome analysis identified 142 up- and 222 down-regulated transcripts in the high phosphorus group compared to the adequate phosphorus group. Gene set enrichment analysis identified that genes that were up-regulated in the high phosphorus group were linked to the gene ontology terms “mitochondria” and “Notch signaling pathway”, whereas genes that were down-regulated were linked to the “PI3K-AKT pathway”. Overall, the effects of the high-phosphorus diet on the muscle lipidome and transcriptome were relatively modest, but consistently indicated an impact on lipid metabolism.
