Interactome quantitation reveals non-energetic mitochondrial roles in cell type specialization in murine kidney

ABSTRACT: Evolution of multicellular life forms has involved adaptation of organs that consist of multiple cell types, each with unique functional properties that as a collection, achieve complex organ function. Since each cell type is adapted to deliver specific functionality within the context of an organ, knowledge on functional landscapes occupied by individual cell types could improve comprehension of organ function at the molecular level. In kidney, podocytes and tubules are two cell types that work together, each with vastly different functional roles. Podocytes envelop the blood vessels in the glomerulus and act as filters while tubules, located downstream of the glomerulus, are responsible for reabsorption of important nutrients. Mitochondria hold a critical and well-studied role in tubules due to the high energetic requirements required to fulfill their function. In podocytes however, questions remain regarding the relevance of mitochondrial function in both normal physiology and pathology . Quantitative cross-linking mass spectrometry and proteomics together with a transgenic mitochondrial tagging strategy were used to investigate kidney cell-type specificity of mitochondria. These efforts revealed that despite similarities of podocyte and tubule mitochondrial proteomes, each contain unique features corresponding to known distinct functional roles. These include increased demand for energy production through the TCA cycle in tubules and increased detoxification demand in podocytes. Moreover, tubule and podocyte mitochondrial interactome differences revealed additional cell-type specific functional insights with alterations in betaine metabolism, lysine degradation, and other pathways not regulated through proteome abundance levels. Most importantly, these efforts illustrate that cell specific mitochondrial interactome differences within an organ can now be visualized. Therefore, this approach can generally be used to map cell-specific mitochondrial changes in disease, aging or even with therapy to better understand the roles and contributions of each cell type in normal physiology and pathology within an organ in ways not previously possible .

Project description:Mammalian spermatogenesis is a complex biological process that occurs within a highly organized tissue, the seminiferous epithelium. The coordinated maturation of spermatogonia, spermatocytes and spermatids suggests the existence of precise programs of gene expression in these cells as well as in their neighboring somatic Sertoli cells. The objective of this study was to elucidate genes encoding the proteins that execute these programs. Rat seminiferous tubules at stages I, II-III, IV-V, VI, VIIa,b, VIIc,d, VIII, IX-XI, XII, XIII-XIV of the cycle were isolated by microdissection and Sertoli cells, spermatogonia plus early spermatocytes, pachytene spermatocytes and spermatids were purified from enzymatically-dispersed testes. Microarray analysis using Rat Genome 230 2.0 arrays identified a total of 16,971 probe sets that recognized transcripts. A comparison with the transcriptome of other tissues identified 398 testis-specific probe sets, which therefore are potential targets for the development of new contraceptives. Sequential waves of cell and stage-specific gene expression are associated with progression of germ cells through the stages of the cycle of the seminiferous epithelium and 1612 probe sets recognized transcripts whose expressions varied at least 4-fold across the stages of the cycle. Pathway analyses reveal that entire biological processes are regulated cyclically in testicular cells. Important among these are cell cycle and DNA repair. Thus, stage-specific gene expression is a widespread and fundamental characteristic of spermatogenic cells and Sertoli cells. Experiment Overall Design: Seminiferous tubules at the following stages or groups of stages were isolated by transillumination-assisted microdissection: I, II-III, IV-V, VI, VIIa,b, VIIc,d, VIII, IX-XI, XII, XIII-XIV. Twenty-five segments of tubules, 2 m in length, were collected at each stage or group of stages from each rat. Tubules from two separate animals were pooled to form one sample from each stage or groups of stages. A total of 5 independent samples per stage or groups of stages were analyzed. Mature Sertoli cells were isolated to about 85% purity (n=4). Three groups of germ cells were isolated by centrifugal elutriation from enzyme-dispersed testes: round spermatids (n=4), pachytene spermatocytes (n=4) and spermatogonia plus early spermatocytes (n=3) . Purity of these cells has been shown to vary between 85% to 95%

Project description:Testicular germ cell tumours (TGCTs) of young adult men, seminoma (SEM) and nonseminoma (NSEM), develop from a precursor cell, carcinoma in situ (CIS), which resembles foetal gonocytes and retains embryonic pluripotency. We used microarrays to analyse microRNA (miRNA) expression in 12 human testis samples with CIS cells and compared it to the miRNA expression profiles of normal adult testis, testis with Sertoli-cell-only (SCO) that lack germ cells, testis tumours (SEM and embryonal carcinoma, EC; an undifferentiated component of NSEM) and foetal male and female gonads. Principal component analysis revealed distinct miRNA expression profiles characteristic for each of the different tissue types. We identified several miRNAs that were unique to testis with CIS cells, foetal gonads, and testis tumours. These included miRNAs from the hsa-miR-371~373 and -302~367 clusters that have previously been reported in germ cell tumours and three miRNAs (hsa-miR-96, -141 and -200c) that were also expressed in human epididymis. We found several miRNAs that were upregulated in testis tumours: hsa-miR-9, -105 and the hsa-miR-182~183~96 cluster were highly expressed in SEM, while the hsa-miR-515~526 cluster was high in EC. We conclude that miRNA expression profile changes during testis development and that the miRNA profile of adult testis with CIS cells shares characteristic similarities with the expression in foetal gonocytes. We used Agilent microarrays to determine the expression of microRNAs in samples from testis. We first used Agilent-016436 Human miRNA Microarray 1.0 G4472A (GPL9081; miRNA ID version) on 4 samples: normal testis, testis with 30% carcinoma in situ (CIS) tubules, testis with 50% CIS tubules and testis with 99-100% CIS tubules. This allowed us to determine the correlation between miRNA expressiona and the content of CIS cells in the samples. This is the file with data from those four arrays. Next, we used Agilent-019118 Human miRNA Microarray 2.0 G4470B (GPL8936; Probe Name version) on 24 samples that included normal testis, testis with the precursor for testis cancer carcinoma in situ (CIS), Sertoli-cell-only testis (contains the somatic testis cells but no germ cells), seminom and non-seminom tumours, and foetal gonads. This constitute the main part of the experiment and the publication, but the data was submitted to GEO in an independent file.
