Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is characterized by the development of large renal cysts and progressive loss of renal function. Although the cause of the development of renal cysts is unknown, recent evidence suggests that excessive apoptosis occurs in PKD. With the use of terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick-end labeling staining, we have confirmed the presence of apoptotic bodies in cystic kidneys of congenital polycystic kidney (cpk) disease mice carrying a homozygous mutation at 3 wk of age. Apoptosis was localized primarily to the interstitium with little evidence of cell death in cyst epithelium or noncystic tubules. In addition, we observed that the expression of various caspases, bax and bcl-2, was upregulated in cystic kidneys. With the use of various substrates in enzyme activity assays, we have demonstrated a greater than sevenfold increase in caspase 4 activity and a sixfold increase in caspase 3 activity. These data suggest that there is a caspase-dependent apoptosis pathway associated with PKD and support the hypothesis that apoptotic cell death contributes to cyst formation in PKD. 相似文献

Polycystic kidney disease is a common genetic disorder in which fluid-filled cysts displace normal renal tubules. Here we focus on autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease, which is attributable to mutations in the PKD1 and PKD2 genes and which is characterized by perturbations of renal epithelial cell growth control, fluid transport, and morphogenesis. The mechanisms that connect the underlying genetic defects to disease pathogenesis are poorly understood, but their exploration is shedding new light on interesting cell biological processes and suggesting novel therapeutic targets. 相似文献

Apoptosis in the cystic epithelium is observed in most rodent models of polycystic kidney disease (PKD) and in human autosomal dominant PKD (ADPKD). Apoptosis inhibition decreases cyst growth, whereas induction of apoptosis in the kidney of Bcl-2 deficient mice increases proliferation of the tubular epithelium and subsequent cyst formation. However, alternative evidence indicates that both induction of apoptosis as well as increased overall rates of apoptosis are associated with decreased cyst growth. Autophagic flux is suppressed in cell, zebra fish and mouse models of PKD and suppressed autophagy is known to be associated with increased apoptosis. There may be a link between apoptosis and autophagy in PKD. The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) and caspase pathways that are known to be dysregulated in PKD, are also known to regulate both autophagy and apoptosis. Induction of autophagy in cell and zebrafish models of PKD results in suppression of apoptosis and reduced cyst growth supporting the hypothesis autophagy induction may have a therapeutic role in decreasing cyst growth, perhaps by decreasing apoptosis and proliferation in PKD. Future research is needed to evaluate the effects of direct autophagy inducers on apoptosis in rodent PKD models, as well as the cause and effect relationship between autophagy, apoptosis and cyst growth in PKD. 相似文献

多囊肾病(Polycystic kidney disease,PKD)是以肾脏充满多个液性囊泡,细胞增殖异常,间质炎细胞浸润及细胞外基质重塑等病理特点为主的遗传性疾病。主要分为常染色体显性多囊肾病(Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease,ADPKD)及常染色体隐性多囊肾病(Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease,ARPKD)。ADPKD更为常见,发病率约为1:500-1000,约50%的患者到60岁会发展为终末期肾脏病。ARPKD较少见,发病率约为1:20000-1:40000,患者多在婴幼儿时期死亡。目前,一旦多囊肾发展为终末期肾脏病,除了肾脏移植和透析外没有更有效的治疗方法,因此,早期的诊治对延缓多囊肾进展及防止其发展为终末期肾脏病是至关重要的。多囊肾动物模型的建立在研究多囊肾疾病具体发病机制及新药研发中具有重要意义。本文介绍了PKD疾病动物模型的研究进展,包括经典PKD自发模型、化学诱导模型及基因修饰模型。 相似文献

Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a prevalent, inherited condition for which there is currently no effective specific clinical therapy. The disease is characterized by the progressive development of fluid-filled cysts derived from renal tubular epithelial cells which gradually compress the parenchyma and compromise renal function. Current interests in the field focus on understanding and exploiting signaling mechanisms underlying disease pathogenesis as well as delineating the role of the primary cilium in cystogenesis. This review highlights the pathogenetic pathways underlying renal cyst formation as well as novel therapeutic targets for the treatment of PKD.

Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is a developmental kidney disorder which can be inherited as either an autosomal dominant trait, with an incidence of 1:50 to 1:1000, or as an autosomal recessive trait with an incidence of 1:6,000 to 1:40,000. Three different genes have now been cloned that are associated with mutations that cause PKD. Two of these are linked to the most common forms of the dominant disease while the third is associated with the orpk mouse model of recessive polycystic kidney disease. Advances in understanding the molecular genetics of PKD have been paralleled by new insights into the cellular pathophysiology of cyst formation and progressive enlargement. Current data suggest that a number of PKD proteins may interact in a complex, which when disrupted by mutations in PKD genes may lead to altered epithelial proliferative activity, secretion, and cell matrix biology. The identification of a unique cystic epithelial phenotype presents new opportunities for targeted therapies. These include targeted gene therapy, gene complementation, and specific immunological or pharmacological interruption of growth factor pathways. 相似文献

Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is the most common genetic cause for end-stage renal failure. Numerous fluid-filled cysts develop in the parenchyma of the kidney. They compromise kidney function with increasing number and size of the cysts until renal failure is inevitable. The cysts are epithelial in origin but cysts develop in different nephron segments depending on the type of the PKD. Animal models with PKD have been used for several decades to unravel the molecular mechanisms of cystogenesis. Initially, research was dependent on the morphological analysis of spontaneously emerging cystic phenotypes. Nowadays, in addition to theses models transgenic and knock-out models targeting PKD genes are also available. The localization of “cystoproteins” in the cilia of the tubulus epithelia and the involvement of cilia-dependent pathways in cystogenesis was shown only with the help of these animal models. This article gives an overview on the currently available murine models presenting with PKD. 相似文献

Epithelial cell polarity is essential for the establishment and maintenance of morphological and functional asymmetries that underlie normal renal structure and function and are brought about by the appropriate delivery of growth factor receptors and ion and fluid transporters and channels to apical or basolateral cell membranes. The fundamental process of cellular polarization is established early during development and is controlled by sets of evolutionarily conserved proteins that integrate intrinsic and extrinsic polarity cues. Specialized structural domains between adjacent cells and cells with their matrix, termed adherens junctions (AJ) and focal adhesions (FA), respectively, are formed that contain specific components of multi-molecular complexes acting as sites to recruit proteins and to activate intracellular mechano-transduction pathways. Regulation of these processes results in tight spatio-temporal control of renal tubule growth and lumen diameter. Abnormalities in macromolecular polarization complexes lead to a variety of diseases in different organs, a common example of which is Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD), where epithelial cysts replace normal renal tubules. Membrane protein polarity defects in Autosomal Dominant (AD) PKD include the mis-polarization of normally basolateral membrane proteins to apical, lumenal membranes, such as epidermal growth factor (EGFR/ErbB) receptors and Na+K+-ATPase-α1 subunit; mis-polarization of normally apical membrane proteins to basolateral membranes, including the Na+K+2Cl− (NKCC1) symporter; and the failure to traffic and insert proteins into membranes resulting in their intracellular accumulation, such as E-cadherin and the β1 subunit of Na+K+-ATPase. Abnormalities in structural AJ, FA and polarity complexes in ADPKD epithelia include loss of E-cadherin, and focal adhesion kinase (FAK), MALS-3, Crb and Dlg complexes as well as disruptions in Rab/sec and syntaxin trafficking and membrane docking pathways. Since proper polarization of epithelial cells lining renal tubules is essential for normal kidney development and differentiation to prevent abnormal cystic dilation, interventions to reverse polarity defects to normal would offer therapeutic opportunities for PKD.

Polycystic kidney disease is the most common heritable disease in humans. In addition to epithelial cysts in the kidney, liver and pancreas, patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) also suffer from abdominal hernia, intracranial aneurysm, gastrointestinal cysts, and cardiac valvular defects, conditions often associated with altered extracellular matrix production or integrity. Despite more than a decade of work on the principal ADPKD genes, PKD1 and PKD2, questions remain about the basis of cystic disease and the role of extracellular matrix in ADPKD pathology. This review explores the links between polycystins, focal adhesions, and extracellular matrix gene expression. These relationships suggest roles for polycystins in cell-matrix mechanosensory signaling that control matrix production and morphogenesis.

Orpk mouse model of polycystic kidney disease reveals essential role of primary cilia in pancreatic tissue organization 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) includes a group of disorders that are characterized by the presence of cysts in the kidney and other organs, including the pancreas. Here we show that in orpk mice, a model system for PKD that harbors a mutation in the gene that encodes the polaris protein, pancreatic defects start to occur at the end of gestation, with an initial expansion of the developing pancreatic ducts. Ductal dilation continues rapidly after birth and results in the formation of large, interconnected cysts. Expansion of pancreatic ducts is accompanied by apoptosis of neighboring acinar cells, whereas endocrine cell differentiation and islet formation appears to be unaffected. Polaris has been shown to co-localize with primary cilia, and these structures have been implicated in the formation of renal cysts. In the orpk pancreas, cilia numbers are reduced and cilia length is decreased. Expression of polycystin-2, a protein involved in PKD, is mislocalized in orpk mice. Furthermore, the cellular localization of beta-catenin, a protein involved in cell adhesion and Wnt signaling, is altered. Thus, polaris and primary cilia function are required for the maturation and maintenance of proper tissue organization in the pancreas. 相似文献

Calcium signaling and polycystin-2 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is caused by mutations in two genes, PKD1 and PKD2, which encode for the proteins, polycystin-1 (PC1) and polycystin-2 (PC2), respectively. Although disease-associated mutations have been identified in these two proteins, the sequence of molecular events leading up to clinical symptoms is still unknown. PC1 resides in the plasma membrane and it is thought to function in cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions, whereas PC2 is a calcium (Ca2+) permeable cation channel concentrated in the endoplasmic reticulum. Both proteins localize to the primary cilia where they function as a mechanosensitive receptor complex allowing the entry of Ca2+ into the cell. The downstream signaling pathway involves activation of intracellular Ca2+ release channels, especially the ryanodine receptor (RyR), but subsequent steps are still to be identified. Elucidation of the signaling pathway involved in normal PC1/PC2 function, the functional consequences of PC1/PC2 mutation, and the role of Ca2+ signaling will all help to unravel the molecular mechanisms of cystogenesis in PKD. 相似文献

Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is a common genetic disorder in which extensive epithelial-lined cysts develop in the kidneys. In previous studies, abnormalities of polycystin protein and its interacting proteins, as well as primary cilia, have been suggested to play critical roles in the development of renal cysts. However, although several therapeutic targets for PKD have been suggested, no early diagnosis or effective treatments are currently available. Current developments are active for treatment of PKD including inhibitors or antagonists of PPAR-γ, TNF-α, CDK and VEGF. These drugs are potential therapeutic targets in PKD, and need to be determined about pathological functions in human PKD. It has recently been reported that the alteration of epigenetic regulation, as well as gene mutations, may affect the pathogenesis of PKD. In this review, we will discuss recent approaches to PKD therapy. It provides important information regarding potential targets for PKD. 相似文献

Tubular epithelial cell apoptosis occurs in most animal models of polycystic kidney disease (PKD) and in kidneys from humans with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). Induction of apoptosis in cultured tubular epithelial cells results in cyst formation. Induction of apoptosis in the kidney in Bcl-2 deficient mice results in increased proliferation of tubular epithelium and cyst formation. Caspase inhibition reduces tubular apoptosis and proliferation and slows disease progression in the Han:SPRD rat model of PKD. Thus, there is evidence that both epithelial cell apoptosis and proliferation are dysregulated in ADPKD and may represent a general mechanism for cyst growth. 相似文献

Members of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) family bind to ErbB (EGFR) family receptors which play an important role in the regulation of various fundamental cell processes including cell proliferation and differentiation. The normal rodent kidney has been shown to express at least three members of the ErbB receptor family and is a major site of EGF ligand synthesis. Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is a group of diseases caused by mutations in single genes and is characterized by enlarged kidneys due to the formation of multiple cysts in both kidneys. Tubule cells proliferate, causing segmental dilation, in association with the abnormal deposition of several proteins. One of the first abnormalities described in cell biological studies of PKD pathogenesis was the abnormal mislocalization of the EGFR in cyst lining epithelial cells. The kidney collecting duct (CD) is predominantly an absorptive epithelium where electrogenic Na+ entry is mediated by the epithelial Na+ channel (ENaC). ENaC-mediated sodium absorption represents an important ion transport pathway in the CD that might be involved in the development of PKD. A role for EGF in the regulation of ENaC-mediated sodium absorption has been proposed. However, several investigations have reported contradictory results indicating opposite effects of EGF and its related factors on ENaC activity and sodium transport. Recent advances in understanding how proteins in the EGF family regulate the proliferation and sodium transport in normal and PKD epithelial cells are discussed here.

Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) and other renal ciliopathies are characterized by cysts, inflammation, and fibrosis. Cilia function as signaling centers, but a molecular link to inflammation in the kidney has not been established. Here, we show that cilia in renal epithelia activate chemokine signaling to recruit inflammatory cells. We identify a complex of the ciliary kinase LKB1 and several ciliopathy‐related proteins including NPHP1 and PKD1. At homeostasis, this ciliary module suppresses expression of the chemokine CCL2 in tubular epithelial cells. Deletion of LKB1 or PKD1 in mouse renal tubules elevates CCL2 expression in a cell‐autonomous manner and results in peritubular accumulation of CCR2+ mononuclear phagocytes, promoting a ciliopathy phenotype. Our findings establish an epithelial organelle, the cilium, as a gatekeeper of tissue immune cell numbers. This represents an unexpected disease mechanism for renal ciliopathies and establishes a new model for how epithelial cells regulate immune cells to affect tissue homeostasis. 相似文献

Polycystin-1, the gene product of PKD1, induces resistance to apoptosis and spontaneous tubulogenesis in MDCK cells 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10

The major form of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) results from mutation of a gene (PKD1) of unknown function that is essential for the later stages of renal tubular differentiation. In this report, we describe a novel cell culture system for studying how PKD1 regulates this process. We show that expression of human PKD1 in MDCK cells slows their growth and protects them from programmed cell death. MDCK cells expressing PKD1 also spontaneously form branching tubules while control cells form simple cysts. Increased cell proliferation and apoptosis have been implicated in the pathogenesis of cystic diseases. Our study suggests that PKD1 may function to regulate both pathways, allowing cells to enter a differentiation pathway that results in tubule formation. 相似文献

Summary Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is a common autosomal dominant genetic disorder caused by mutation in at least two different gene loci. The PKD1 gene has been localized on the short arm of chromosome 16. The location of a second genetic locus in the human genome is not yet known. A large PKD kindred, unlinked to chromosome 16, with over 250 members was studied using both DNA and classical markers. In total, 29 informative marker loci on 11 autosomes have been analyzed for linkage with PKD. The data significantly exclude the linkage with disease locus from 17 marker loci and show no evidence of close linkage with the other loci. 相似文献
