Project description:Analysis of glomeruli isolated from kidneys of 4 month male BXSB/MpJ-Yaa. The BXSB/MpJ-Yaa mouse strain is a lupus-prone model. Results provide insight into the pathogenic mechanisms linked to glomerulonephritis in BXSB/MpJ-Yaa mice. The glomeruli were isolated from 6 BXSB/MpJ-Yaa (glomerulonephritis model) and BXSB/MpJ-Yaa+ (control). 6 glomerular populations of each strain were devided into 3 groups (1 group / 2 populations). 3 glomerulonephritis models versus 3 controls analysis was performed. BXSB/MpJ-Yaa is a recombinant inbred strain developed originally from a C57BL/6 female mouse and a SB/Le male mouse. Yaa (Y-linked autoimmune accelerator locus) localizing on the Y chromosome of BXSB/MpJ-Yaa male mice is the result of a duplication of an about 4 Mbp telomeric segment near the pseudoautosomal region of the X chromosome onto the Y chromosome. BXSB/MpJ-Yaa+ (control) male mice carry the wild-type Y chromosome in place of the mutant Yaa-containing Y chromosome of BXSB/MpJ-Yaa male mice.

Project description:In isolated glomeruli by beads-perfusion methods, microRNA (miRNA) expression was analyzed in healthy C57BL/6 and B6.MRLc1 glomerulonephritis mice. The expression of 1,135 miRNAs was examined, and up-regulated or down-regulated miRNA was determined. These results provide a basical information of molecular pathology in glomerulonephritis. The glomeruli were collected from female C57BL/6 (n=3, 9-month-old, healthy control) and female B6.MRLc1 (n=3, 14-month-old, early stage of glomerulonephritis; n=3, 9-month-old, late stage of glomerulonephritis). The total RNA sample was purified, and total 1,135 microRNA expression was compared among healthy, early stage, and late stage.

Project description:Transcriptome analysis of RNA samples from glomeruli with and without functional ER⍺ duringnNephrotoxic serum-induced nephritis. There is sex bias in SLE and lupus nephritis with a 9:1 women to men ratio. Timecourse microarray analysis of glomeruli isolated from kidneys during nephrotoxic serum-induced nephritis (NTN) reveled altered expression of genes related to lipid metabolism in WT females compared to ER⍺KO females.

Project description:Up to 75% of systematic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients experience neuropsychiatric (NP) symptoms, called neuropsychiatric SLE (NPSLE), yet the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. Microglia control synaptic pruning during early postnatal brain development. The process in NPSLE remains unclear. Here, we show that microglia-coordinated elimination of synaptic terminals participated in NPSLE in MRL/lpr mice, a lupus-prone murine model. We elucidated that lupus mice developed increased depression- and anxiety-like behaviors and persistent phagocytic microglia reactivation before overt peripheral lupus pathology. Microglial engulfment of synapses explained behavioral disorders. To elucidate the mechanism of synaptic pruning by microglia, we sequenced the gene expression in sorted microglia from both lupus (MRL/lpr) mice and the wild-type (MRL/mpj) controls.

Project description:T cells from many patients with systemic lupus erythematosus are hypoproliferative in response to TCR ligation. This defect is mediated, at least in part, through down regulation of the TCR zeta chain. Investigation of this phenomenon in lupus-prone mice revealed that the hypoproliferative T cell phenotype apparent in BXSB males is mediated in part by the Yaa locus. The BXSB model of lupus is a recombinant inbred strain that was originally derived from a cross between a male SB/LE mouse and a female C57BL/6 mouse. BXSB is unique among lupus-prone mouse strains, in that males carry an autoimmune accelerating factor on the Y chromosome, termed Yaa, which accelerates disease onset in male BXSB mice so that fatal glomerulonephritis occurs around 6 months of age. It was recently reported that the Yaa locus is a translocation of a short stretch of genes including that encoding Toll-like receptor 7 (Tlr-7) from the X to the Y chromosome, leading to a two-fold over expression of a subset of these genes, including Tlr-7, and hypersensitivity of Yaa+ cells to TLR-7 agonists. To more fully understand the functional significance of the Yaa gene and how it plays a part in the modulation of CD4+ T cell responses, we performed microarray analysis using Affymetrix 430 2.0 arrays on spleens from B6 male B6.Yaa male samples. The analysis revealed an enhanced signature of innate immunity, including increased expression not only of Tlr7 and Tlr8, in line with reports that the Yaa locus leads to a duplication of the murine Tlr7 and Tlr8 genes , but also of Tlr2, Tlr5, Cd14, Lbp, C2, C3 and genes for several heat-shock proteins. T cells from B6.Yaa mice also displayed decreased TCR? expression. Interestingly, cell surface levels of the inhibitory molecule B7-H1 were increased on B6.Yaa B cells and monocytes/macrophages. In line with increased TLR-7 expression reported in B6.Yaa mice, the TLR-7 agonist imiquimod increased B7-H1 expression on normal B cells. Restoration of proliferation in co-cultures of B6 T cells and B6.Yaa APC with B7-H1 blocking Ab demonstrated a mechanistic contribution of B7-H1 up-regulation to Yaa-mediated APC-dependent T cell hypoproliferation. In addition, T cell hypoproliferation was induced in normal B6 T cells in vitro by the application of imiquimod. However, this defect was not mediated by B7-H1 or secreted factors but was independent of APC and mediated through direct imiquimod stimulation of T cells themselves. We postulate that excessive TLR-7 stimulation in Yaa+ mice mediates T cell hypoproliferation in part through up-regulation of B7-H1 and possibly also through direct T cell-mediated effects. Keywords: differential gene expression, RNA, spleen, C57Bl/6J, B6.SB-Yaa/J, male, wild type, Yaa Control mice: four C57Bl/6J male spleens Experimental mice: three B6.SB-Yaa/J male spleens and one pool of two B6.Yaa male spleens for the third Yaa sample (GSM236622) All mice were obtained from the Jackson Laboratories between March and December 2005. Spleen cell suspensions were prepared by teasing spleen tissue through 70 micron nylon screens and lysing red cells with ammonium chloride. All mice were 8 weeks of age at the time of the experiment. RNA was separately extracted, labeled, and hybridized from each animal.

Project description:Glomerulonephritis is one of the major complications and causes of death in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Podocytes can be injured in many forms of glomerular disease, characteristic changes are actin cytoskeleton reorganization of involved foot process. ACTN4, encodes α-actinin-4, an actin-binding and crosslinking protein localized to podocytes in renal glomerulus. Abnormal expression of α-actinin-4 in mice leads to proteinuria and podocyte damage. DZ2002, a reversible S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine hydrolase (SAHH) inhibitor with immunosuppressive properties and potent therapeutic activity against various autoimmune diseases in mice. Here, we found that DZ2002 could significantly ameliorate nephritis of lupus-prone mice. Our results showed that DZ2002 decreased the accumulation of α-actinin-4, inhibited expression of integrin-linked kinase and downstream phosphorylation of β1-integrin.

Project description:To characterize molecular profiles through the development of lupus nephritis and identify risk factors for end organ damage, we carried out gene expression analysis of microdissected kidneys from lupus-prone NZM2328 mice. We identified a continuum of inflammatory processes associated with the progression from acute inflammatory to chronic destructuve disease initiated in the glomeruli and progressing to the tubulointerstitium. We examind male mice and the congenic NZM2328.R27 strain, both of which are resistant to the development of chronic nephritis and end organ damage, as a means to define pathogenic processes.
