Project description:Autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease (ADTKD) caused by UMOD mutations is characterized by strong interfamilial variability. We generated two mutant Umod knock-in mouse models, harbouring two mutations associated with drastic differences in kidney survival in ADTKD patients. We performed bulk RNA-sequencing of kidney extracts from Umod KI mice at an early (1 month) and advanced (4 months) stage of disease.

Project description:Missense mutations in the uromodulin (UMOD) gene cause autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease (ADTKD), one of the most common monogenic kidney diseases. The unknown impact of the allelic and gene dosage effects and fate of mutant uromodulin leaves open the gap between postulated gain-of-function mutations, end-organ damage and disease progression in ADTKD. Based on two prevalent missense UMOD mutations with divergent disease progression, we generated UmodC171Y and UmodR186S knock-in mice that showed strong allelic and gene dosage effects on uromodulin aggregates and activation of ER stress and unfolded protein and immune responses, leading to variable kidney damage. Deletion of the wild-type Umod allele in heterozygous UmodR186S mice increased the formation of uromodulin aggregates and ER stress. Studies in kidney tubular cells confirmed differences in uromodulin aggregates, with activation of mutation-specific quality control and clearance mechanisms. Enhancement of autophagy by starvation and mTORC1 inhibition decreased uromodulin aggregates. These studies substantiate the role of toxic aggregates as driving progression of ADTKD-UMOD, relevant for therapeutic strategies to improve clearance of mutant uromodulin.

Project description:Uromodulin is the most abundant urinary protein. It is exclusively produced and released in the urine by renal epithelial cells lining the thick ascending limb of Henle’s loop (TAL). Mutations in UMOD, the gene encoding uromodulin, cause autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease uromodulin-related (ADTKD-UMOD). While the primary effect of all mutations, retention in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), is well established, its downstream effects are still unknown. The aim of this study was to gain insight into ADTKD-UMOD pathogenesis through transcriptional profiling of immortalised mouse TAL cells (mTAL) transduced with lentiviral vectors encoding wild type or mutant (C150S) GFP-tagged human uromodulin.

Project description:Background: Uromodulin (Tamm-Horsfall) protein is secreted by the thick ascending limb into urine and crosses the basolateral membrane into the kidney interstitium and blood. Uromodulin may engage the kidney’s innate immune system with pro and anti-inflammatory effects described. Mutations in the UMOD gene are a cause of autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease (ADTKD) due to protein misfolding and endoplasmic reticulum stress. We identified a family with a UMOD mutation (C106F) that leads to glomerular and interstitial inflammation atypical for ADTKD. Methods: To determine if the observed phenotype is due to mutant uromodulin induced changes in the innate or adaptive immune system, we developed a transgenic (tg) mouse with a homologous cysteine to phenylalanine mutation (C105F) in the UMOD gene using CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing. Results: LLC-PK1 cells expressing wt and mutant protein had increased basolateral secretion of protein compared with cells expressing wt or mutant protein alone. EM examination of mutant medium showed protein aggregates in contrast to filaments in wt medium. Immunoprecipitation of plasma uromodulin from mutant mice demonstrated aggregate formation not seen in wt mice. Tg/+ mice displayed increased F4/80+ mononuclear phagocyte (MP) and podocyte inflammasome activity at baseline. Tg/+ mice developed glomerular and interstitial matrix deposition, myofibroblast proliferation and increased Creatinine with aging. Following ischemia-reperfusion injury, tg/+ mice had no increase in inflammasome activation over baseline in contrast to wt littermates and displayed improved tubular repair and renal function at 7 days. Differential gene expression analysis by RNA sequencing of kidney MP revealed activation of the ATF4 mediated stress response pathway and genes associated with the development of tissue fibrosis. Conclusions: The C106F mutation results in glomerular and interstitial inflammatory kidney disease due to interaction of aggregated misfolded protein with mononuclear phagocytic cells resulting in ER stress response. The resulting alteration in the immune system leads to improved kidney repair following acute injury but fibrosis and chronic renal failure with aging.

Project description:Uromodulin-associated kidney disease (UAKD) summarizes different clinical features of an autosomal dominant heritable disease syndrome in humans with a proven uromodulin (UMOD) mutation involved. It is often characterized by hyperuricemia, gout, alteration of urine concentrating ability, as well as a variable rate of disease progression inconstantly leading to renal failure and histological alterations of the kidneys. We recently established the two Umod mutant mouse lines UmodC93F and UmodA227T on the C3H inbred genetic background both showing kidney defects analogous to those found in human UAKD patients. The aim of this study was the further analysis of the phenotypic alterations by examining the kidneys as primarily affected organs. Transcriptome and quantitative PCR analyses as well as IHC analyses found significant changes related to the phenotyping changes. 4 male mice of each mutant cohort (Umod C93F & Umod A227T) and the corresponding wildtype controls, each mutant mouse was compared to the mean of the corresponding wildtype including a technical replicate (dye swap)

Project description:To gain insight into autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease (ADTKD)-uromodulin (UMOD) pathophysiology, we carried out transcriptional profiling of kidneys from 1- and 2-month-old TgUmodC147W mice, a transgenic model that recapitulates the main features of the disease, and TgUmodwt mice, a matched transgenic control of Umod overexpression. These time points correspond to presymptomatic stages that precede renal dysfunction in TgUmodC147W mice.

Project description:IntroductionFocal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) is a histopathologically defined kidney lesion. FSGS can be observed with various underlying causes, including highly penetrant monogenic renal disease. We recently identified pathogenic variants of UMOD, a gene encoding the tubular protein uromodulin, in 8 families with suspected glomerular disease.MethodsTo validate pathogenic variants of UMOD, we reviewed the clinical and pathology reports of members of 8 families identified to have variants of UMOD. Clinical, laboratory, and pathologic data were collected, and genetic confirmation for UMOD was performed by Sanger sequencing.ResultsBiopsy-proven cases of FSGS were verified in 21% (7 of 34) of patients with UMOD variants. The UMOD variants seen in 7 families were mutations previously reported in autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease-uromodulin (ADTKD-UMOD). For one family with 3 generations affected, we identified p.R79G in a noncanonical transcript variant of UMOD co-segregating with disease. Consistent with ADTKD, most patients in our study presented with autosomal dominant inheritance, subnephrotic range proteinuria, minimal hematuria, and renal impairment. Kidney biopsies showed histologic features of glomerular injury consistent with secondary FSGS, including focal sclerosis and partial podocyte foot process effacement.ConclusionOur study demonstrates that with the use of standard clinical testing and kidney biopsy, clinicians were unable to make the diagnosis of ADTKD-UMOD; patients were often labeled with a clinical diagnosis of FSGS. We show that genetic testing can establish the diagnosis of ADTKD-UMOD with secondary FSGS. Genetic testing in individuals with FSGS histology should not be limited to genes that directly impair podocyte function.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease (ADTKD) is a progressive chronic disease that is inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion. Symptoms include hyperuricemia, gout, interstitial nephritis, renal cysts, and progressive renal damage that can lead to end-stage renal disease. Mutations in the uromodulin gene (UMOD) characterize the ADTKD-UMOD clinical subtype of this disease. To date, > 100 UMOD mutations have been identified. Early diagnosis of ADTKD-UMOD is important to treat the disease, slow down disease progression, and facilitate the identification of potentially affected family members. CASE SUMMARY:We report a 40-year-old man harboring a novel heterozygous missense mutation in UMOD (c.554G>T; p. Arg185Leu). The patient had hyperuricemia, gout, and chronic kidney disease. The same mutation was detected in his daughter, aunt and cousin. CONCLUSION:A single nucleotide substitution in exon 3 of UMOD was responsible for the heterozygous missense mutation (c.554G>T, p.Arg185Leu).

Project description:Introduction: The effects of Uromodulin on the innate immune system remain uncertain. Mice with a cysteine to phenylalanine mutation (C105F) in the UMOD gene homologous to a pathogenic human mutation demonstrate high levels of circulating uromodulin following ischemia reperfusion kidney injury, increased markers of immune tolerance and improved kidney repair. We hypothesized that this may occur through interaction of circulating uromodulin with dendritic cells. Materials and Methods: Dendritic cells were isolated from WT and C105F mutant mice and used to compare gene expression using RNA sequencing. In vitro motility and efferocytosis assays were used to verify phenotypic changes predicted from affected pathways. Results: RNA sequencing demonstrated increased expression of scavenger receptor and motility associated genes. In vitro assays demonstrated that mutant uromodulin increased activation of the NF-kB pathway compared with WT protein and that mutant dendritic cells had increased migration and efferocytosis compared with WT cells. Discussion/Conclusion: Dendritic cells from mutant C105F mice display gene expression and phenotypic changes associated with increased scavenger receptor expression, motility and efferocytosis. These results suggest a possible mechanism of DC regulation by circulating uromodulin that may affect tissue repair following injury.
