TGF-Beta 3 heterozygous mice

ABSTRACT: Transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) family comprises the main player in the development of fibrosis including three isoforms: TGFβ1, TGFβ2 and TGFβ3. TGFβ3 may play an antifibrotic role at the renal level, counteracting the role of TGFβ1, using a mouse model heterozygous for the TGFβ3 gene (TGFβ3+/-). Partial deletion of TGFβ3 causes in the mice albuminuria, loss of glomerular filtration rate, accelerated fibrosis, epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and increment of glomerular basement membrane thickening.

β-catenin-controlled tubular cell-derived exosomes play a key role in fibroblast activation via the OPN-CD44 axis

Project description:Tubular injury and peripheral fibroblast activation are the hallmarks of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and renal fibrosis, suggesting intimate communication between the two diseases. However, the underlying mechanisms remain to be determined. Exosomes play a role in shuttling proteins and other materials to recipient cells. In our study, we found that tubular cell-derived exosomes were aroused by β-catenin in kidney fibrogenesis. Osteopontin (OPN), especially its N-terminal fragments (N-OPN), was encapsulated in β-catenin-controlled tubular cell-derived exosome cargo, and subsequently passed to fibroblasts. Through binding with CD44, exosomal OPN promoted fibroblast proliferation and activation. Gene deletion of β-catenin in tubular cells (Ksp-β-catenin−/−) or gene ablation of CD44 (CD44−/−) greatly ameliorated renal fibrosis. Notably, N-OPN was secreted by exosome into the urine of patients with CKD, and negatively correlated with kidney function. The urinary exosomes from patients with CKD greatly accelerated renal fibrosis, which was blocked by CD44 deletion. These results suggest that exosome-mediated activation of the OPN/CD44 axis plays a key role in renal fibrosis, which is controlled by β-catenin.

Quantitative proteomics of TGFβ1-stimulated endothelial cells using iTRAQ, LC-MSMS

Project description:Endothelial to mesenchymal transition is a possible source of myofibroblasts, which play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of fibrosis. EndMT participate in tissue fibrotic processes in various organs. TGF-β family growth factors are involved in the initiation of EndMT. This process plays a crucial role n the pathogenesis of various fibrotic diseases.

Dysregulated mesenchymal PDGFR-β drives kidney fibrosis

Project description:Kidney fibrosis is characterized by expansion and activation of platelet-derived growth factor receptor-β (PDGFR-β) positive mesenchymal cells. To study the consequences of PDGFR-ß activation, we developed a model of primary renal fibrosis using transgenic mice with PDGFR-β activation specifically in renal mesenchymal cells, driving their pathological proliferation and phenotypic switch towards myofibroblasts. This resulted in progressive mesangioproliferative glomerulonephritis, mesangial sclerosis and interstitial fibrosis with progressive anemia due to loss of erythropoietin production by fibroblasts. We used microarrays to compare wildtype animals (Foxd1_wt Pdgfrb_wt) to animals with constitutive mesenchymal PDGFR-β activation (Foxd1_mt Pdgfrb V536A) in the kidney to identify target genes of PDGFR-β signaling.

USP36-mediated deubiquitination of DOCK4 contributes to the diabetic renal tubular epithelial cell injury via Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway

Project description:Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) has become the leading cause of end-stage renal diseases, but the efficacy of current treatment remains unsatisfactory. The pathogenesis of DKD needs a more in-depth research. Ubiquitin specific proteases 36 (USP36), a member of deubiquitinating enzymes family, has aroused wide concerns for its role in deubiquitinating and stabilizing target proteins. Nevertheless, the role of USP36 in diabetes has never been reported yet. Herein, we identified an increased expression of USP36 both in vitro and in vivo in diabetic renal tubular epithelial cells (TECs), and its overexpression is related to the enhanced epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Further investigation into the mechanisms proved that USP36 could directly bind to and mediate the deubiquitination of dedicator of cytokinesis 4 (DOCK4), a guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) that could activate Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway and induce EMT. Our study revealed a new mechanism that USP36 participates in the pathogenesis of DKD, and provided potential intervening targets accordingly.

Acyloxyacyl hydrolase protects against kidney injury via inhibition of tubular CD74-macrophage crosstalk

Project description:Renal fibrosis is the common pathway in the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Acyloxyacyl hydrolase (AOAH) is expressed in various phagocytes and highly expressed in proximal tubular epithelial cells (PTECs). Research shows that AOAH plays a critical role in infections and chronic inflammatory diseases, although its role in kidney injury is unknown. Here, AOAH expression was examined in human and mouse kidneys, and Aoah-/- mice and single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) were performed to determine its role in kidney injury induced by folic acid (FA). We found that AOAH expression was positively correlated with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) while negatively correlated with the degree of renal fibrosis in kidneys of CKD patients. AOAH deletion led to exacerbated kidney injury and fibrosis after FA administration, which was reversed by overexpression of Aoah in kidneys. scRNA-seq revealed that Aoah-/- mice exhibited increased subpopulation of CD74+ PTECs, even though total PTECs were decreased compared to WT mice after FA treatment. Finally, exacerbated kidney injury and fibrosis seen in Aoah-/- mice was attenuated via administration of ISO-1, an inhibitor of macrophage inhibition factor (MIF) and CD74 binding. Thus, our work indicates that AOAH protects against kidney injury and fibrosis by inhibiting renal tubular epithelial cells CD74 signaling pathways. Targeting kidney AOAH represents a promising strategy to prevent renal fibrosis progression.

MiR-181b Targets Semaphorin 3a to Mediate TGF-β-induced Endothelial to Mesenchymal Transition: Implication in Atrial Fibrillation

Project description:Background:This study investigated if and how atrial endothelial cells may transform to mesenchymal cells and contribute to atrial fibrosis via endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EndMT). Results:We show a novel mechanistic link between TGF-β1/SMAD signaling and decreased Sema3a expression through the induction of miR-181b; this pathway plays an important role in EndMT associated with the pathogenesis of AF. Both miR-181b and Sema3a are potential therapeutic targets in AF.
