Project description:Uromodulin is the most abundant urinary protein. It is exclusively produced and released in the urine by renal epithelial cells lining the thick ascending limb of Henle’s loop (TAL). Mutations in UMOD, the gene encoding uromodulin, cause autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease uromodulin-related (ADTKD-UMOD). While the primary effect of all mutations, retention in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), is well established, its downstream effects are still unknown. The aim of this study was to gain insight into ADTKD-UMOD pathogenesis through transcriptional profiling of immortalised mouse TAL cells (mTAL) transduced with lentiviral vectors encoding wild type or mutant (C150S) GFP-tagged human uromodulin.

Project description:Uromodulin (UMOD) is a secreted glycoprotein exclusively expressed by the cells lining the thick ascending limb of the loop of henle and the early distal tubule of the kidney nephron. Mutations in UMOD that interfere with proper folding of the protein are responsible for a progressive form of interstitial fibrotic kidney disease that leads to end stage renal disease, referred to as Uromodulin Associated Kidney Disease (UAKD). To assess key transcriptional changes associated with the progression of UAKD, we generated a knock-in mouse model harboring the mouse equivalent of the human mutation C148W. We profiled both the whole kidney tissue, as well as the specific UMOD+ cell populaitons in mutant and wild type mice. Analysis of differentially expressed genes in whole tissue and UMOD+ cells revealed a strong TNF-signaling signature, as well as TRIB3 upregulation, which is a key mediator of the intrinsic ER-stress mediated cell death pathway.

Project description:Characterization of gene expression for each renal cell type is essential for identifying mechanisms underlying kidney physiology and pathophysiology. Here, we built a transcriptome landscape mouse renal epithelial cells by deep sequencing of all 14 mouse renal segments, upon which we developed an enrichment protocol to characterize distal nephron cells by single-cell RNA-seq. Our renal tubule expression atlas provided landscapes of gene expression and alternative splicing along the renal tubule segments. We identified, and integrated segment-specific genes with human gene nomenclature to understand the gene function and conservation. We further developed an enrichment strategy for single-cell analysis of distal nephron cells. The analysis revealed heterogeneous gene expression in DCT1-DCT2-CNT. Moreover, we identified two mosaic cell types in thick ascending limb and verified their presence in mouse kidney tissue. Our data provides a rich resource for kidney research and we provide our data user-friendly at https://esbl.nhlbi.nih.gov/MRECA/Nephron/ and https://esbl.nhlbi.nih.gov/MRECA/DCT/.

Project description:Background: Uromodulin (Tamm-Horsfall) protein is secreted by the thick ascending limb into urine and crosses the basolateral membrane into the kidney interstitium and blood. Uromodulin may engage the kidney’s innate immune system with pro and anti-inflammatory effects described. Mutations in the UMOD gene are a cause of autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease (ADTKD) due to protein misfolding and endoplasmic reticulum stress. We identified a family with a UMOD mutation (C106F) that leads to glomerular and interstitial inflammation atypical for ADTKD. Methods: To determine if the observed phenotype is due to mutant uromodulin induced changes in the innate or adaptive immune system, we developed a transgenic (tg) mouse with a homologous cysteine to phenylalanine mutation (C105F) in the UMOD gene using CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing. Results: LLC-PK1 cells expressing wt and mutant protein had increased basolateral secretion of protein compared with cells expressing wt or mutant protein alone. EM examination of mutant medium showed protein aggregates in contrast to filaments in wt medium. Immunoprecipitation of plasma uromodulin from mutant mice demonstrated aggregate formation not seen in wt mice. Tg/+ mice displayed increased F4/80+ mononuclear phagocyte (MP) and podocyte inflammasome activity at baseline. Tg/+ mice developed glomerular and interstitial matrix deposition, myofibroblast proliferation and increased Creatinine with aging. Following ischemia-reperfusion injury, tg/+ mice had no increase in inflammasome activation over baseline in contrast to wt littermates and displayed improved tubular repair and renal function at 7 days. Differential gene expression analysis by RNA sequencing of kidney MP revealed activation of the ATF4 mediated stress response pathway and genes associated with the development of tissue fibrosis. Conclusions: The C106F mutation results in glomerular and interstitial inflammatory kidney disease due to interaction of aggregated misfolded protein with mononuclear phagocytic cells resulting in ER stress response. The resulting alteration in the immune system leads to improved kidney repair following acute injury but fibrosis and chronic renal failure with aging.

Project description:Multipotent stem cells and their lineage-restricted progeny drive nephron formation within the developing kidney. Validated markers of these early stem/progenitor populations are essential for deciphering their in vivo function and for evaluating their clinical potential for treating adult kidney disease. Here, we document expression of the adult stem cell marker Lgr5 in the developing kidney and assess the stem/progenitor identity of Lgr5+ve cells via in vivo lineage tracing. The appearance and localization of Lgr5+ve cells coincided with that of the S-shaped body around E14. Lgr5 expression remained restricted to cell clusters within developing nephrons in the cortex until P7, when expression was permanently silenced. In vivo lineage tracing identified Lgr5 as a marker of a novel progenitor population within nascent nephrons dedicated to generating the thick ascending limb of Henle's loop and distal convoluted tubule. The Lgr5 surface marker and experimental models described here will be invaluable for deciphering the contribution of early nephron stem cells to developmental defects and for isolating human nephron progenitors as a prerequisite to evaluating their therapeutic potential.
