项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the most common life- threatening genetic disease in humans, affecting between 1:400 and 1:1000 people worldwide. ADPKD patients suffer from massive cysts in the kidney, leading to eventual renal failure, as well as specific cardiovascular problems, in particular intracranial aneurysms which can rupture and cause mortality. ADPKD is caused by heterozygous mutations in either PKD1 or PKD2 encoding polycystin-1 and polycystin-2, respectively, which form a flow-sensing channel complex at the primary cilium of renal epithelial and blood vessel endothelial cells. Since animals models are low-throughput and do not fully recapitulate human biology, more accurate and higher-throughput laboratory models are required to study human ADPKD. Induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells have revolutionized our ability to develop patient-specific in vitro disease models. Our laboratory has recently generated six iPS cell lines from two ADPKD patients (ADPKD- iPS). We will first demonstrate that these are true pluripotent iPS cell lines capable of generating cell types from each of the three germ layers in embryoid bodies (EBs). We will also characterize the genetic mutations and polycystin expression levels in these cells. To develop ADPKD-iPS cells into an in vitro disease model, ADPKD-iPS cells or their derivative EBs will be inspected for phenotypes relating to ciliary function or cystogenesis. We will measure the morphology of ADPKD-iPS or EB cilia compared to healthy iPS lines and quantify ciliary polycystin levels by quantitative fluorescence intensity co-localization. In addition, ADPKD-iPS will be differentiated into either renal tubular epithelial cells, which form ADPKD cysts in vivo, or alternatively endothelial cells, which may give rise to intracranial aneurysms. These cell types will be screened for disease phenotypes related to epithelialization and tubulogenesis, ciliogenesis, and calcium release, since polycystins function as flow-sensory calcium channels at the primary cilium. Finally, we will model 'second hit' somatic mutations using siRNA polycystin knockdown to exacerbate phenotypes, and model gene therapy using wild- type over-expression to rescue them. Establishment of a human, in vitro model for ADPKD will enhance our understanding of disease pathology, allow for the testing of candidate therapeutic agents, and facilitate high-throughput therapeutics screens.

描述（由申请人提供）：常染色体显性多囊性肾脏疾病（ADPKD）是人类中最常见的生命威胁性遗传疾病，影响了全球1：400至1000人。 ADPKD患者在肾脏中患有大量囊肿，最终导致肾衰竭以及特定的心血管疾病，尤其是颅内动脉瘤，可能破裂并导致死亡。 ADPKD分别由编码Polycystin-1和Polycystin-2的PKD1或PKD2中的杂合突变引起，它们在肾上皮和血管内皮细胞的原发性纤毛上形成了流动感应通道复合物。由于动物模型是低通量的，并且不能完全概括人类生物学，因此需要更准确和更高的实验室模型才能研究人类ADPKD。诱导的多能干（IPS）细胞已彻底改变了我们开发患者特异性体外疾病模型的能力。我们的实验室最近从两名ADPKD患者（ADPKD-IP）产生了六个IPS细胞系。我们将首先证明这些是真正的多能IPS细胞系，能够从胚胎体（EBS）中的三个细菌层中的每一个中产生细胞类型。我们还将表征这些细胞中的基因突变和多囊表达水平。为了将ADPKD-IPS细胞发展为体外疾病模型，将检查ADPKD-IPS细胞或其导数EB，以检查与睫状功能或囊肿发生有关的表型。与健康的IPS系相比，我们将测量ADPKD-IP或EB CILIA的形态，并通过定量的荧光强度共同定位来量化睫状多囊素水平。此外，ADPKD-IP将被分化为肾小管上皮细胞，该细胞在体内形成ADPKD囊肿，或者是内皮细胞，可能引起颅内动脉瘤。这些细胞类型将筛选与上皮化和微管生成，纤毛生成和钙释放有关的疾病表型，因为多囊这在原发性纤毛上充当流膜钙通道。最后，我们将使用siRNA Polycystin敲低来对“第二击”的体突变进行建模，以加剧表型，并使用野生型过表达对基因治疗进行建模。建立人类的ADPKD体外模型将增强我们对疾病病理学的理解，允许测试候选治疗剂，并促进高通量治疗筛查。
