在微阵列、全基因组关联研究和数量性状位点分析的时代,与肾小球滤过屏障功能或蛋白尿相关的基因数据不断增加。研究人员受到已发表文献检索的限制,无法选择最相关的基因进行研究。高通量细胞培养和其他体外系统最终需要在体内模型中证明。为感兴趣的基因生成哺乳动物模型是昂贵且耗时的,并且仅产生少量的测试对象。这些模型也有许多缺陷,如可能的胚胎死亡率和未能产生表型或产生非肾脏特异性表型。在这里,我们描述了一个简单的脊椎动物筛选系统,以确定相关的肾小球滤过屏障功能的基因在体内斑马鱼模型。使用我们的技术,我们能够在4-6周内在数百名活体测试受试者中筛选出全新的基因,而成本仅为哺乳动物模型的一小部分。我们的系统产生一致的和可靠的证据,肾小球肾病的基因相关性,然后在哺乳动物模型中的进一步分析的结果提供了价值。
Data for genes relevant to glomerular filtration barrier function or proteinuria is continually increasing in an era of microarrays, genome-wide association studies, and quantitative trait locus analysis. Researchers are limited by published literature searches to select the most relevant genes to investigate. High-throughput cell cultures and other in vitro systems ultimately need to demonstrate proof in an in vivo model. Generating mammalian models for the genes of interest is costly and time intensive, and yields only a small number of test subjects. These models also have many pitfalls such as possible embryonic mortality and failure to generate phenotypes or generate nonkidney specific phenotypes. Here we describe an in vivo zebrafish model as a simple vertebrate screening system to identify genes relevant to glomerular filtration barrier function. Using our technology, we are able to screen entirely novel genes in 4–6 weeks in hundreds of live test subjects at a fraction of the cost of a mammalian model. Our system produces consistent and reliable evidence for gene relevance in glomerular kidney disease; the results then provide merit for further analysis in mammalian models.
