ABSTRACT
AIMS:
The accumulation of advanced glycation end products is implicated in the development and progression of diabetic kidney disease. No study has examined whether stimulating advanced glycation clearance via receptor manipulation is reno-protective in diabetes. Podocytes, which are early contributors to diabetic kidney disease and could be a target for reno-protection. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
To examine the effects of increased podocyte oligosaccharyltransferase-48 on kidney function, glomerular sclerosis, tubulointerstitial fibrosis and proteome (PXD011434), we generated a mouse with increased oligosaccharyltransferase-48kDa subunit abundance in podocytes driven by the podocin promoter.RESULTS:
Despite increased urinary clearance of advanced glycation end products, we observed a decline in renal function, significant glomerular damage including glomerulosclerosis, collagen IV deposition, glomerular basement membrane thickening and foot process effacement and tubulointerstitial fibrosis. Analysis of isolated glomeruli identified enrichment in proteins associated with collagen deposition, endoplasmic reticulum stress and oxidative stress. Ultra-resolution microscopy of podocytes revealed denudation of foot processes where there was co-localization of oligosaccharyltransferase-48kDa subunit and advanced glycation end-products.CONCLUSIONS:
These studies indicate that increased podocyte expression of oligosaccharyltransferase-48 kDa subunit results in glomerular endoplasmic reticulum stress and a decline in kidney function.Palabras clave
