Project description:to compare the incremental advances that each cell type brings to the phenotype of the others in the glomerulus we compared TGCs (triculture), BGCs (co-culture), and plate cultures (monocultures) The function of the glomerulus depends on complex cell-cell/matrix interactions and replication of this in vitro would aid biological understanding in both health and disease. Previous models have not fully reflected all cell types and interactions present. We report here the development of a microphysiological system which contains all resident renal cell types in an anatomically relevant manner. We demonstrate functionally appropriate retention of albumin in the system along with providing a detailed transcriptomic analysis of the contributing biology of each cell type. The important role of mesangial cells is shown in promoting the health and maturity of the other cell types. AdditionallyAdditionally, we demonstrate that glomerular cells in simple 2D culture exhibit a state more reflective of human disease than previously recognised. This in vitro model will expand our capability to investigate glomerular biology in a more translatable manner by the inclusion of the important mesangial cell compartment.

Project description:The function of the glomerulus depends on the complex cell-cell/matrix interactions and replication of this in vitro would aid biological understanding in both health and disease. Previous models do not fully reflect all cell types and interactions present as they overlook mesangial cells within their 3D matrix. Herein, the development of a microphysiological system that contains all resident renal cell types in an anatomically relevant manner is presented. A detailed transcriptomic analysis of the contributing biology of each cell type, as well as functionally appropriate albumin retention in the system, is demonstrated. The important role of mesangial cells is shown in promoting the health and maturity of the other cell types. Additionally, a comparison of the incremental advances that each individual cell type brings to the phenotype of the others demonstrates that glomerular cells in simple 2D culture exhibit a state more reflective of the dysfunction observed in human disease than previously recognized. This in vitro model will expand the capability to investigate glomerular biology in a more translatable manner by the inclusion of the important mesangial cell compartment.

Project description:Current research on metabolic disorders and diabetes relies on animal models because multi-organ diseases cannot be well studied with the standard in vitro assays. Here, we connect models of key metabolic organs, pancreas and liver, on a microfluidic chip to enable diabetes research in a human-based in vitro system. Aided by mechanistic mathematical modelling, we show that hyperglycemia and high cortisone induce glucose dysregulation in the pancreas-liver microphysiological system (MPS) mimicking a diabetic phenotype seen in patients with glucocorticoid-induced diabetes. In this diseased condition, pancreas-liver MPS displays beta-cell dysfunction, steatosis, elevated ketone-body secretion, increased glycogen storage, and upregulated gluconeogenic gene expression. In turn, a physiological culture condition maintains the glucose tolerance and beta cell function. This method was evaluated for reproducibility in two laboratories and was effective in multiple pancreatic islet donors. The model also provides a platform to identify new therapeutic proteins as demonstrated with a combined transcriptome and proteome analysis.

Project description:Interferon-β signaling has been shown to play important roles in anti-virus as well as anti-tumor immunity. We here report that the key transcription factor in type I interferon signaling, IRF3, as well as downstream interferon-β are able to induce replication stress signaling in triple-negative breast cancer cells. IRF3 overexpression sensitizes triple-negative breast cancer cells to several genotoxic agents. Addition of IFN-β, a key downstream cytokine of IRF3,reduced replication fork speed and activated ATR-CHK1 signaling. Conversely, type I interferon-neutralizing antibodies or nucleosides supplementation rescued IRF3-induced replication stress.

Project description:Background: The kidney glomerulus is a specialized capillary bed that is involved in urine production and blood pressure control. Glomerular injury is a major cause of chronic kidney disease, a widespread epidemic without therapeutic options. Single-cell transcriptomics have radically improved our ability to characterize complex organs, such as the kidney. Cells of the glomerulus, however, have been largely underrepresented in previous single cell kidney studies due to their paucity and intractability. Methods: We used single-cell RNA sequencing to comprehensively characterize the different types of cells in the glomerulus from healthy mice and from four different disease models (nephrotoxic serum nephritis, diabetes, doxorubicin toxicity, CD2AP deficiency). Results: All cell types in the glomerulus were identified using unsupervised clustering analysis. We identified novel marker genes and gene signatures of mesangial cells, vascular smooth muscle cells of the afferent and efferent arteriole, parietal epithelial cells, and three different types of endothelial cells. Analysis of the disease models revealed cell type-specific and injury type-specific responses in the glomerulus, including acute activation of the Hippo pathway in podocytes after nephrotoxic immune injury. Conclusions: We have generated a comprehensive high-resolution single-cell transcriptomic profile of the kidney glomerulus from healthy and injured mice. The dataset provides a useful resource for identifying novel disease-related genes and pathways.

Project description:Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is an Alphavirus transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes, causing fever, rash and arthralgia in mammals. The function of the CHIKV non-structural protein 3 (nsP3) remains enigmatic. Building on previous studies, we generated a panel of mutants in a conserved and surface-exposed cluster in the nsP3 alphavirus unique domain (AUD) and tested their replication using a sub-genomic replicon (SGR). Three of these SGR mutants replicated well in mosquito cells but poorly in mammalian cells. We observed that this difference was due to cell culture temperature (mosquito cells: 28 °C; mammalian cells: 37 °C) as the mutants exhibited no replication defect in mammalian cells grown at a sub-physiological temperature (28 °C). Similar effects were observed for infectious CHIKV and the closely related O'nyong-nyong virus. Intriguingly, the wildtype SGR replicated more efficiently in mammalian cells at 28 °C compared to 37 °C. To explore the mechanism behind this difference, we focused on two known antiviral pathways: interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) and stress granules (SG). SGR replication correlated strongly with increased expression of ISGs at 37°C, but only weakly correlated at 28 °C. We also observed enhanced recruitment of SG proteins (G3BP, eIF4G, and TIA-1) into cytoplasmic sites of genome replication at 28 °C. These findings may have real-world implications as when a mosquito bites a mammal, the virus first infects cells in peripheral tissues which are often at sub-physiological temperatures. We propose that alphaviruses such as CHIKV have evolved mechanisms to both promote viral genome replication and concomitantly limit antiviral responses in these cells.

Project description:Current research on metabolic disorders and diabetes relies on animal models because multi-organ diseases cannot be well studied with the standard in vitro assays. Here, we connect models of key metabolic organs, pancreas and liver, on a microfluidic chip to enable diabetes research in a human-based preclinical system. Aided by mechanistic mathematical modelling, we show that hyperglycemia and high cortisone induce glucose dysregulation in the pancreas-liver microphysiological system (MPS) mimicking a diabetic phenotype seen in patients with glucocorticoid-induced diabetes. In this diseased condition, pancreas-liver MPS displays beta-cell dysfunction, steatosis, elevated ketone-body secretion, increased glycogen storage, and upregulated gluconeogenic gene expression. In turn, a physiological culture condition rescues the glucose tolerance and beta cell function. This method was evaluated for repeatability in two laboratories and was effective in multiple pancreatic islet donors. The model also provides a platform to identify new therapeutic targets as demonstrated with a combined transcriptome and proteome analysis.
