AKI and CKD are highly prevalent diseases that are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Unfortunately, there are not currently any specific treatments for either of these conditions. Both diseases are caused by a range of underlying diseases and processes. AKI, for example, can result from hemodynamic, toxic, infectious, and immune insults to the kidney. In both AKI and CKD, the diagnosis is based on changes in the serum creatinine and albuminuria, but these tests do not discriminate among the various etiologies of injury. Thus, beyond detecting a reduction in kidney function, clinicians typically have little information regarding the underlying pathologic process. Better understanding of the cellular and molecular patterns in the kidneys of patients with AKI and CKD will provide key insights into these diseases and will lead to new diagnostic and therapeutic approaches. In recent years, multi-omics analyses have had a major impact on our understanding of several fields, such as cancer biology, and have supported the identification and development of new treatments. These same technologies could transform our understanding of AKI and CKD, particularly when spatial resolution is complemented with proteomic and transcriptomic cellular analyses. Although kidney biopsies are not usually performed in patients with AKI and CKD, biopsy samples obtained through the Kidney Precision Medicine Project (KPMP) offer a valuable opportunity to analyze kidney tissue using state-of-the-art high-dimensional multi-omic platforms. We propose to utilize complementary spatial protein and RNA technologies to generate comprehensive tissue atlases for AKI and CKD. We will pursue the following specific aims: Aim 1. Generate a kidney cellular map via phenotypic and functional protein expression profiling. We will analyze biopsies using Multiplexed Ion Beam Imaging (MIBI), which detects 40+ protein targets at single-cell resolution (250 nm) with tissue-specific spatial information. Aim 2. Generate a kidney morphological map via phenotypic and functional gene expression profiling. We will analyze biopsies using Visium Spatial Transcriptomics (ST), which provides the whole transcriptome with morphological context. Aim 3. Generate an integrated cellular and molecular protein and gene expression kidney atlas. We will apply statistical and bioinformatic approaches to integrate the results from Aims 1 and 2 to create a composite map of the cellular protein and transcriptional expression profiles in the kidney. To accomplish these goals, we have assembled a multidisciplinary research team that includes nephrologists, renal pathologists, immunologists, and experts on multi-omics systems biology analyses. The proposed experiments are expected to reveal subsets of AKI and CKD patients based on the patterns of cells and molecular pathways present in the kidney, and to support identification of novel candidate biomarkers and therapeutic targets.

阿基和CKD是与显著的发病率和死亡率相关的高度流行的疾病。 不幸的是，目前还没有针对这两种情况的具体治疗方法。这两种疾病 是由一系列潜在的疾病和过程引起的。例如，阿基可能由以下原因引起： 血液动力学、毒性、感染性和对肾脏的免疫损伤。在阿基和CKD中，诊断是 根据血清肌酐和蛋白尿的变化，但这些测试并不能区分 各种损伤的病因。因此，除了检测肾功能的降低，临床医生通常 关于潜在的病理过程的信息很少。更好地理解细胞和 阿基和CKD患者肾脏中的分子模式将为这些疾病提供关键见解 并将带来新的诊断和治疗方法。近年来，多组学分析已经 这对我们对癌症生物学等几个领域的理解产生了重大影响， 识别和开发新的治疗方法。这些技术可以改变我们的 了解阿基和CKD，特别是当空间分辨率与蛋白质组学和 转录组细胞分析。尽管通常不对阿基患者进行肾活检， CKD，通过肾脏精准医学项目（KPMP）获得的活检样本提供了一个有价值的 有机会使用最先进的高维多组学平台分析肾脏组织。我们 建议利用互补的空间蛋白质和RNA技术， 阿基和CKD的图谱。我们将努力实现以下具体目标：目标1。生成肾脏细胞图谱 通过表型和功能蛋白表达谱。我们将使用多路复用离子 光束成像（MIBI），可在单细胞分辨率（250 nm）下检测40多种蛋白质靶点，并具有组织特异性 空间信息目标二。通过表型和功能基因生成肾脏形态图 表达谱分析我们将使用Visium空间转录组学（ST）分析活检，它提供了 整个转录组与形态学背景。目标3.生成一个整合的细胞和分子蛋白质 和肾基因表达图谱。我们将应用统计和生物信息学方法来整合 目的1和2的结果，以创建细胞蛋白和转录表达的复合图谱 肾脏的轮廓为了实现这些目标，我们组建了一个多学科研究团队， 包括肾脏病学家、肾脏病理学家、免疫学家和多组学系统生物学专家 分析。预期所提出的实验将基于以下结果揭示阿基和CKD患者的子集： 肾脏中存在的细胞和分子途径的模式，并支持鉴定新的 候选生物标志物和治疗靶点。
