项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is a "ciliopathic" disease since the loss of cilia or mutations in proteins involved in the function of cilia lead to renal cystic development. During embryonic development, deletion of cilia or mutations in cystoproteins such as polycystin 1 and 2 lead to PKD. However, in the adult animal, using conditional floxed alleles, to knockout cilia or delete cystoproteins, development of significant cystic disease only occurs after a number of months. The reason for this delay is not clear but it has provided a model to study factors or conditions that modify the initiation and progression of cystogenesis. This has led to the concept of a "third hit" in which an environmental influences, physiological adaptive responses, or associated pathophysiological conditions initiates and accelerates cystogenesis. Previous work has shown that acute kidney injury can accelerate cystogenesis. Recently we have shown that reduced renal mass also accelerates the formation of cysts. Finally, it has been reported in humans that kidney size, which is an index of cystic burden, is doubled in diabetic versus non-diabetic autosomal dominant PKD patients. Thus, hypertrophic signaling and hyperglycemia may be two extremely important regulators of disease progression in PKD. Hypothesis: That the presence of reduced renal mass or elevated blood glucose levels result in the initiation and acceleration of cystogenesis in mouse models of PKD. In addition, lack of cilia or mutations in cystoproteins may affect the renal adaptive response to hypertrophy and hyperglycemia Specific objectives: (1) investigate reduced renal mass (nephrectomy), hyperglycemia (diabetes), or both as third hits that accelerate cystogenesis; (2) determine if cilia or cystoproteins modulates renal hypertrophy and affects disease progression thereby leading to accelerated diabetic nephropathy; and (3) unravel the complex signaling processes that result in cystogenesis. Determine how these pathways are altered in the presence of hyperglycemia and hypertrophic signaling. Relevance: In ADPKD, cyst progression is highly variable and understanding what triggers initiation and what regulates cyst progression has become a major focus in PKD research. The studies outlined in this application will provide new and important information on what regulates the onset and progression of cystogenesis. Procedures to be used: Adult mice with and without PKD will be studied in presence or absence of nephrectomy to reduce renal mass or after induction of diabetes with streptozotocin or in the presence of both conditions. Light and electron microscopy will be used to study cystic development and assess pathological changes in kidney and other organs and in cell culture models. Physiological studies will be performed to assess GFR, blood pressure, and proteinuria, Western blot, immunofluorescence, genomic analysis will be used to evaluate the complex signaling pathways that are activated in these models. Significance of potential new findings: Only recently has hypertrophic signaling and hyperglycemia been identified as playing critical roles in the initiation and rate of cyst progression in PKD. In addition the role of cilia in controlling structural and functional hypertrophy and in the renal response to diabetes has not been studied. This work may lead to new approaches to arrest or slow the progression of cystic disease. Potential impact on Veterans health care: Autosomal Dominant Polycystic kidney disease affects both males and females of all ethnicities with symptoms beginning between 30 and 40 years of age. It is a devastating disease that usually results in renal failure with treatment options limited to dialysi and transplantation. There are also cardiovascular effects including hypertension and stroke. For reasons that are not clear, the incidence of PKD reported in the VA population is nearly double of that found in the general non- VA population. Thus there is a compelling reason to focus on this disease and its effective treatment or cure, which would greatly benefit the VA patient population.

描述（由申请人提供）：多囊肾脏疾病（PKD）是一种“纤毛病”疾病，因为纤毛的丧失或参与纤毛功能的蛋白质突变导致肾囊性发育。在胚胎发育过程中，纤毛或cy蛋白中的突变（如多囊1和2）导致PKD导致纤毛或突变。但是，在成年动物中，使用有条件的floxed等位基因来敲除纤毛或删除cystoproteins，仅在几个月后才发生明显的囊性疾病。这种延迟的原因尚不清楚，但它为研究了改变囊肿发生的起始和进展的因素或条件提供了模型。这导致了“第三命中“环境影响，生理适应性反应或相关的病理生理状况会启动并加速囊肿生成。先前的工作表明，急性肾脏损伤可以加速囊肿生成。最近，我们表明肾脏质量减少也加速了囊肿的形成。最后，它已经在人类大小中固定了，这是糖尿病的糖尿病。 non-diabetic autosomal dominant PKD patients. Thus, hypertrophic signaling and hyperglycemia may be two extremely important regulators of disease progression in PKD. Hypothesis: That the presence of reduced renal mass or elevated blood glucose levels result in the initiation and acceleration of cystogenesis in mouse models of PKD. In addition, lack of cilia or mutations in cystoproteins may affect the renal adaptive response to肥大和高血糖特异性目标：（1）研究肾脏质量减少（肾切除术），高血糖（糖尿病），或两者都是加速囊肿的第三次命中；（2）确定纤毛或cy蛋白是否调节肾脏肥大，并影响疾病的进展，从而导致加速的糖尿病性肾病；（3）阐明导致胞杀剂的复杂信号传导过程。确定在高血糖和肥大信号的存在下如何改变这些途径。相关性：在ADPKD中，囊肿进展是高度可变的，并且了解什么触发了启动以及哪些调节囊肿进展已成为PKD研究的主要重点。该应用程序中概述的研究将提供有关调节膀胱遗传学发作和进展的新的重要信息。要使用的程序：在存在或不存在肾切除术的情况下，将研究有或没有PKD的成年小鼠，以减少肾脏肿块或诱导链链球菌素或在两种情况下诱导糖尿病后。光和电子显微镜将用于研究囊性发育并评估肾脏和其他器官以及细胞培养模型中的病理变化。将进行生理研究，以评估GFR，血压和蛋白尿，蛋白质印迹，免疫荧光，基因组分析将用于评估这些模型中激活的复杂信号通路。潜在新发现的重要性：直到最近才具有肥厚的信号传导，高血糖被确定为在PKD中囊肿进展的起始和速率中起关键作用。此外，还没有研究纤毛在控制结构和功能肥大以及对糖尿病的肾脏反应中的作用。这项工作可能会导致新方法阻止或减缓囊性疾病的进展。对退伍军人卫生保健的潜在影响：常染色体显性多囊性肾脏疾病会影响所有种族的男性和女性，症状从30至40岁开始。这是一种毁灭性的疾病，通常导致肾衰竭，而治疗方案仅限于透析和移植。还有心血管效应，包括高血压和中风。出于尚不清楚的原因，VA人群报告的PKD发生率几乎是普通非VA人群中发现的两倍。因此，有令人信服的理由专注于这种疾病及其有效治疗或治愈，这将极大地使VA患者人群受益。
