Summary (written by the submitters)
Background: Macrophages and tubular epithelial cell interactions are integral in kidney ischemia-incited interstitial inflammation leading to acute kidney injury (AKI). Ischemia/reperfusion injury (I/R) triggers tubular epithelial cells to express IL-34, a macrophage growth factor, that promotes AKI and subsequent CKD. IL-34 engages the cognate receptor, c-FMS, expressed by macrophages, and the recently discovered Protein-Tyrosine Phosphatase Z (Ptprz).

Ptprz, binds to multiple ligands other than IL-34 that progressively increase their expression in kidneys after I/R. Methods: We tested the hypothesis that signaling through Ptprz promotes macrophage-mediated AKI and subsequent CKD, by comparing Ptprz knockout (KO) with wild-type (WT) mice after I/R. Results: Ptprz was expressed by leukocytes and in tubular epithelial cells after I/R in mice. Using Ptprz KO mice we determined that during AKI and CKD renal pathology, and loss of renal function were ameliorated. Ptprz-dependent mechanisms mediated: (i) tubular epithelial cell expression of chemokines that fostered macrophage and T cell rich renal inflammation, and (ii) tubule injury and apoptosis, that resulted in the loss of tubules and interstitial fibrosis during CKD. As macrophages release mediators that induce tubular epithelial cell apoptosis, thus Ptprz-dependent mechanisms promote tubule damage. These findings are translational, as after I/R in human kidney transplants, PTPRZ and PTPRZ ligands were upregulated and expressed by the same cell populations as in mice. Moreover, PTPRZ levels in sera were elevated in kidney transplant patients. Conclusion: Intra-renal Ptprz-dependent macrophage and tubular epithelial cell mediated mechanisms promote AKI and subsequent CKD.

Download · which file do I need?

Direct links to NCBI and ENA, no account and no request form. Pick by what you want to do: take the small processed table to look, the supplementary files to re-analyse, or the original raw data to start over.

1 · Just have a look

Processed table

The series matrix: one table of values per sample as the submitters processed it. The smallest download, and it opens in Excel or R. Start here to see what the data look like.

2 · Re-analyse it

Supplementary files

The count tables and other files the authors uploaded. Take only the samples you need, or the whole study as GSE284133_RAW.tar (it can run to tens of gigabytes).

3 · Start from the raw reads

Raw sequencing reads

The original FASTQ files, straight from the sequencer, held at ENA. Large, and you align them yourself, so only choose this if you need to re-process the study from scratch.

What the files usually look like: For RNA-seq the counts are usually a table among the supplementary files (look for 'counts', 'expression', 'FPKM' or 'TPM' in the file name). The series matrix of a sequencing study is sometimes nearly empty.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA1197422 and SRA study SRP551077. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.
