Project description:This study was designed to investigate gene expression in kidneys of adult female Sabra rats (SBH/y and SBN/y rat strains) with two indwelling kidneys or after uni-ninephrectomy, seeking those genes that are differentially expressed between the two strains, and between animals with one or two kidneys. SBH/y after uninephrectomy develop proteinuria to a much greater extent than SBN/y. The study was performed as part of an overall effort to detect the genes that are associated with the pathophysiology of proteinuria. Keywords: Analysis of genes that are differentially expressed in the kidneys, contrasting between an animal strain that tends to develop proteinuria which is amplified by uninephrectomy and another strain that is relatively resistant to the development of proteinuria

Project description:A rat model of bilateral IRI has been widely used to understand how IRI introduces and progresses the damages on kidney. The aim of this study is to reveal the molecular details of how this bilateral IRI impacts kidney cells. Here, we provide rat single-cell RNA-seq data which is a foundation to understand the IRI related kidney disease. It will support studies to clarify pathophysiology and to develop effective therapy exploiting similar rat renal disease models.

Keywords: Analysis of genes that are differentially expressed in the kidneys, contrasting between an animal strain that tends to develop proteinuria which is amplified by uninephrectomy and another strain that is relatively resistant to the development of proteinuria The experiment was performed in male animals after weaning. Four groups were studied: SBN/y with 2 kidneys (ham uni-nephrectomy), SBN/y after uni-nephrectomy, SBH/y with 2 kidneys (sham uninephrectomy) and SBH/y after uni-nephrectomy. Animals were provided rat chow ad libitum. At age 4 months, 3 months after uninephrectomy or sham operation, animals were sacrificed under ether anesthesia, killed by exsanguination and the kidneys were rapidly removed and snap frozen with liquid nitrogen. The kidneys were stored at -800C until RNA was extracted for the differentiale xpression experiment.

Project description:The rat sub-total nephrectomy (SNx) is a functional model of chronic kidney disease (CKD), where the main pathological driver is glomerular hypertension. Comprehensive transcriptomics and proteomics analyses on the rat SNx model were performed to identify biomarkers in plasma or urine that correlate with kidney disease and functional kidney loss. SWATH proteomics and bulk RNA-sequencing transcriptomics (RNA-seq), with SWATH also performed on plasma and urine. Differential expression analysis demonstrated significant dysregulation of genes and proteins involved in fibrosis, metabolism, and immune response in the SNx rats compared to controls. Gene ontology analysis of the intersecting genes and proteins from both studies demonstrated common biology between animal cohorts that reached the predefined kidney disease thresholds (serum creatinine >2-fold or proteinuria >3-fold increase over sham-operated). About a dozen significantly differential molecules were detected with consistent directional changes in both transcriptomics and proteomics datasets. These molecules were detected independently in kidney (both RNA and protein) and urine (protein only), but not in plasma. The bioinformatics analysis enabled the identification of mechanistic CKD biomarkers whose co-expression have previously been both implicated in fibrosis and detected in urine in CKD patients.
Project description:The pathogenic mechanisms of common kidney glomerular diseases, including the vast majority of cases of proteinuria, remain unknown. To gain insight into the pathogenesis of proteinuria development, we characterized the glomerular gene expression changes that accompany early stages of proteinuria induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in mice.
