Proteomic analysis of renal biomarkers of kidney allograft fibrosis – a study in renal transplant patients

ABSTRACT: Renal transplantation is the preferred treatment of end stage renal disease, but allograft survival is limited by development of interstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy in response to various stimuli. Much effort has been put into identifying new protein markers of fibrosis to support the diagnosis. In present work, we performed an in-depth quantitative proteomics analysis of allograft biopsies from 31 prevalent renal transplant patients and identified correlated the quantified proteins with the volume fraction of fibrosis as determined by a morphometric method. Linear regression analysis identified four proteins that were highly associated with the degree of interstitial fibrosis, namely Coagulation Factor XIII A chain (estimate 18.7, adjusted p<0.03), Uridine Phosphorylase 1 (estimate 19.4, adjusted p<0.001), Actin-related protein 2/3 subunit 2 (estimate 34.2, adjusted p<0.05) and Cytochrome C Oxidase Assembly Factor 6 homolog (estimate -44.9, adjusted p<0.002) even after multiple testing. Proteins that were negatively associated with fibrosis (p < 0.005) were primarily related to normal metabolic processes and respiration, whereas proteins that were positively associated with fibrosis (p < 0.005) were involved in catabolic processes, cytoskeleton organization and immune response. The identified proteins may be candidates for further validation with regards to renal fibrosis. The results support the notion that cytoskeleton organization and immune responses are prevalent processes in renal allograft fibrosis.

Project description:Specific early diagnosis of renal allograft rejection is gaining importance in the current trend to minimize and individualize immunosuppression. Gene expression analyses could contribute significantly by defining “molecular Banff” signatures. Several previous studies have applied transcriptomics to distinguish different classes of kidney biopsies. However, the heterogeneity of microarray platforms, clinical samples and data analysis methods complicates the identification of robust signatures for the different types and grades of rejection. To address these issues, a comparative meta-analysis was performed across five different microarray datasets of heterogeneous sample collections from two published clinical datasets and three own datasets including biopsies for clinical indications, protocol biopsies, as well as comparative samples from non-human primates (NHP). This work identified conserved gene expression signatures that can differentiate groups with different histopathological findings in both human and NHP, regardless of the technical platform used. The marker panels comprise genes that clearly support the biological changes known to be involved in allograft rejection. A characteristic dynamic expression change of genes associated with immune and kidney functions was observed across samples with different grades of CAN. In addition, differences between human and NHP rejection were essentially limited to genes reflecting interstitial fibrosis progression. This data set here comprises a small validation batch of renal allograft biopsies for clinical indications plus control normal kidney samples from patients at Hôpital Tenon, Paris (second batch) that complements the first batch of 60 samples. We used microarrays to identify different gene expression signatures of renal allograft biopsies that can classify them according to different types of allograft rejection or CAN.

This data set comprises all renal allograft biopsies for clinical indications from patients at HÃ´pital Tenon, Paris (February 2003 until September 2004) and few respective patients from HÃ´pital BicÃªtre, Paris, HÃ´pital Pellegrin, Bordeaux, and HÃ´pital Dupuytren, Limoges, plus control normal kidney samples from HÃ´pital Tenon, Paris, France (first batch). We used microarrays to identify different gene expression signatures of renal allograft biopsies that can classify them according to different types of allograft rejection or CAN. Experiment Overall Design: 47 renal allograft core biopsies for clinical indications with different histopathological diagnoses according to BANFF'97 criteria, and 13 normal kidney samples as controls.
