Project description:During development, distinct progenitors contribute to the nephrons versus the ureteric epithelium of the kidney. Indeed, previous pluripotent stem cell-derived models of kidney tissue either contain nephrons or pattern specifically to the ureteric epithelium. By reanalysing the transcriptional distinction between distal nephron and ureteric epithelium in human fetal kidney, we show here that while existing nephron-containing kidney organoids contain distal nephron epithelium and no ureteric epithelium, this distal nephron segment alone displays significant in vitro plasticity and can adopt a ureteric epithelial tip identity when isolated and cultured in defined conditions. “Induced” ureteric epithelium cultures can be cryopreserved, serially passaged without loss of identity and transitioned towards a collecting duct fate. Indeed, cultures harbouring loss-of-function mutations in PKHD1 recapitulate the cystic phenotype associated with autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease.

Project description:Morphogenesis of cellecting duct system within developing mouse kidney is driven by growth at the tips of ureteric epithelium. To characterize the transcription program within the tip compartment, here we performed mRNA-Seq of tip cells (Wnt11RFP+;Hoxb7+ cells) and stalk cells (Wnt11RFP-;Hoxb7GFP+ cells) obtained from mouse embryonic kidney through FACS. We identified tip-specific genes from these data, and verified with in situ hybridization and followed up with mechanistic study for some of the intersting targets.

Project description:Kidney development depends critically on proper ureteric bud branching giving rise to the entire collecting duct system. The transcription factor HNF1B is required for the early steps of ureteric bud branching. Yet, the molecular and cellular events regulated by HNF1B are poorly understood. We report that specific removal of Hnf1b from the ureteric bud leads to defective cell-cell contacts and apico-basal polarity during the early branching events. High resolution ex vivo imaging combined with a membranous fluorescent reporter strategy show decreased mutant cell-rearrangements during mitosis-associated cell dispersal and severe epithelial disorganisation. Molecular analysis reveals downregulation of Gdnf-Ret pathway components and suggests that HNF1B acts both upstream and downstream of Ret-signaling by directly regulating Gfrα1 and Etv5. Subsequently, Hnf1b-deletion leads to massively mispatterned ureteric tree network, defective collecting duct differentiation and disrupted tissue architecture leading to cystogenesis. Consistently, mRNA-seq analysis performed from E15.5 control and mutant kidneys shows that the most impacted genes encode intrinsic cell-membrane components with transporter activity. Our study uncovers a fundamental and recurrring role of HNF1B in epithelial organization during early ureteric bud branching and further patterning and differentiation of the collecting duct system.

Project description:The mammalian kidney achieves massive parallelization of function by exponentially duplicating nephron-forming niches during development. Each niche caps a tip of the ureteric bud epithelium (the future urinary collecting duct tree) as it undergoes branching morphogenesis, while nephron progenitors within niches balance self-renewal and differentiation to early nephron cells. Nephron formation rate approximately matches branching rate over a large fraction of mouse gestation, yet the nature of this apparent pace-maker is unknown. Here we correlate spatial transcriptomics data with branching ‘life-cycle’ to discover rhythmically alternating signatures of nephron progenitor differentiation and renewal across Wnt, Hippo/Yap, retinoic acid (RA), and other pathways. Our data bring temporal resolution to the renewal vs. differentiation balance in the nephrogenic niche and inform new strategies to achieve self-sustaining nephron formation in synthetic human kidney tissues.
