The modulatory effects of large and small extracellular vesicles from normal human urine on calcium oxalate crystallization, growth, aggregation, adhesion on renal cells, and invasion through extracellular matrix: An in vitro study. Biomed Pharmacother 2024; 173:116393. [PMID: 38461684 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2024.116393] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2023] [Revised: 03/04/2024] [Accepted: 03/06/2024] [Indexed: 03/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Urinary extracellular vesicles (uEVs) play important roles in physiologic condition and various renal/urological disorders. However, their roles in kidney stone disease remain unclear. This study aimed to examine modulatory effects of large and small uEVs derived from normal human urine on calcium oxalate (CaOx) crystals (the main component in kidney stones). After isolation, large uEVs, small uEVs and total urinary proteins (TUPs) with equal (protein equivalent) concentration were added into various crystal assays to compare with the control (without uEVs or TUPs). TUPs strongly inhibited CaOx crystallization, growth, aggregation and crystal-cell adhesion. Large uEVs had lesser degree of inhibition against crystallization, growth and crystal-cell adhesion, and comparable degree of aggregation inhibition compared with TUPs. Small uEVs had comparable inhibitory effects as of TUPs for all these crystal assays. However, TUPs and large uEVs slightly promoted CaOx invasion through extracellular matrix, whereas small uEVs did not affect this. Matching of the proteins reported in six uEVs datasets with those in the kidney stone modulator (StoneMod) database revealed that uEVs contained 18 known CaOx stone modulators (mainly inhibitors). These findings suggest that uEVs derived from normal human urine serve as CaOx stone inhibitors to prevent healthy individuals from kidney stone formation.

Front Endocrinol (Lausanne) 2024; 15:1289553. [PMID: 38449847 PMCID: PMC10914985 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2024.1289553] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2023] [Accepted: 02/02/2024] [Indexed: 03/08/2024] Open
Abstract
Aims The primary objective of this study was to investigate the relationship between the platelet/high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (PHR) and the prevalence of nephrolithiasis within the adult population of the United States. Methods The data used in this study were obtained from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) conducted between 2007 and 2018. The analysis included a non-pregnant population aged 20 years or older, providing proper PHR index and nephrolithiasis data. The research utilized subgroup analyses and weighted univariate and multivariable logistic regression to evaluate the independent association between the PHR and the susceptibility to nephrolithiasis. Results The study comprised 30,899 participants with an average PHR value of 19.30 ± 0.11. The overall prevalence rate of nephrolithiasis was estimated at 9.98% with an increase in the higher PHR tertiles (T1, 8.49%; T2, 10.11%; T3, 11.38%, P < 0.0001). An elevated PHR level was closely linked with a higher susceptibility to nephrolithiasis. Compared with patients in T1, and after adjusting for potential confounders in model 2, the corresponding odds ratio for nephrolithiasis in T3 was 1.48 (95% CI: 1.06 to 2.08), with a P-value = 0.02. The results of the interaction tests revealed a significant impact of chronic kidney disease on the relationship between PHR and nephrolithiasis. Furthermore, the restricted cubic spline analyses exhibited a positive, non-linear correlation between PHR and the risk of nephrolithiasis. Conclusion A convenient biomarker, the PHR, was independently associated with nephrolithiasis and could be a novel biomarker in predicting occurrence in clinical decision.

Abstract
The development of numerous diseases is significantly influenced by inflammation. Macrophage-derived exosomes (M-Exos) play a role in controlling inflammatory reactions in various conditions, including chronic inflammatory pain, hypertension, and diabetes. However, the specific targets and roles of M-Exos in regulating inflammation in diseases remain largely unknown. This review summarizes current knowledge on M-Exos biogenesis and provides updated information on M-Exos' biological function in inflammation modulation. Furthermore, this review highlights the functionalization and engineering strategies of M-Exos, while providing an overview of cutting-edge approaches to engineering M-Exos and advancements in their application as therapeutics for inflammation modulation. Finally, multiple engineering strategies and mechanisms are presented in this review along with their perspectives and challenges, and the potential contribution that M-Exos may have in diseases through the modulation of inflammation is discussed.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs), membranous vesicles present in all body fluids, are considered important messengers, carrying their information over long distance and modulating the gene expression profile of recipient cells. EVs collected in urine (uEVs) are mainly originated from the apical part of urogenital tract, following the urine flow. Moreover, bacterial-derived EVs are present within urine and may reflect the composition of microbiota. Consolidated evidence has established the involvement of uEVs in renal physiology, being responsible for glomerular and tubular cross talk and among different tubular segments. uEVs may also be involved in other physiological functions such as modulation of innate immunity, coagulation, or metabolic activities. Furthermore, it has been recently remonstrated that age, sex, endurance excise, and lifestyle may influence uEV composition and release, modifying their cargo. On the other hand, uEVs appear modulators of different urogenital pathological conditions, triggering disease progression. uEVs sustain fibrosis and inflammation processes, both involved in acute and chronic kidney diseases, aging, and stone formation. The molecular signature of uEVs collected from diseased patients can be of interest for understanding kidney physiopathology and for identifying diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers.

Abstract
Introduction: A regular physical training is known to contribute to preserve muscle mass and strength, maintaining structure and function of neural and vascular compartments and preventing muscle insulin resistance and inflammation. However, physical activity is progressively reduced during aging causing mobility limitations and poor quality of life. Although physical exercise for rehabilitation purposes (e.g., after fractures or cardiovascular events) or simply aiming to counteract the development of sarcopenia is frequently advised by physicians, nevertheless few data are available on the targets and the global effects on the muscle organ of adapted exercise especially if started at old age. Methods: To contribute answering this question for medical translational purposes, the proteomic profile of the gastrocnemius muscle was analyzed in 24-month-old mice undergoing adapted physical training on a treadmill for 12 weeks or kept under a sedentary lifestyle condition. Proteomic data were implemented by morphological and morphometrical ultrastructural evaluations. Results and Discussion: Data demonstrate that muscles can respond to adapted physical training started at old age, positively modulating their morphology and the proteomic profile fostering protective and saving mechanisms either involving the extracellular compartment as well as muscle cell components and pathways (i.e., mitochondrial processes, cytoplasmic translation pathways, chaperone-dependent protein refolding, regulation of skeletal muscle contraction). Therefore, this study provides important insights on the targets of adapted physical training, which can be regarded as suitable benchmarks for future in vivo studies further exploring the effects of this type of physical activity by functional/metabolic approaches.

Abstract
Ectopic mineralization refers to the deposition of mineralized complexes in the extracellular matrix of soft tissues. Calcific aortic valve disease, vascular calcification, gallstones, kidney stones, and abnormal mineralization in arthritis are common examples of ectopic mineralization. They are debilitating diseases and exhibit excess mortality, disability, and morbidity, which impose on patients with limited social or financial resources. Recent recognition that inflammation plays an important role in ectopic mineralization has attracted the attention of scientists from different research fields. In the present review, we summarize the origin of inflammation in ectopic mineralization and different channels whereby inflammation drives the initiation and progression of ectopic mineralization. The current knowledge of inflammatory milieu in pathological mineralization is reviewed, including how immune cells, pro-inflammatory mediators, and osteogenic signaling pathways induce the osteogenic transition of connective tissue cells, providing nucleating sites and assembly of aberrant minerals. Advances in the understanding of the underlying mechanisms involved in inflammatory-mediated ectopic mineralization enable novel strategies to be developed that may lead to the resolution of these enervating conditions.

Abstract
Exosomal circRNA serves a novel genetic information molecule, facilitating communication between tumor cells and microenvironmental cells, such as immune cells, fibroblasts, and other components, thereby regulating critical aspects of cancer progression including immune escape, tumor angiogenesis, metabolism, drug resistance, proliferation and metastasis. Interestingly, microenvironment cells have new findings in influencing tumor progression and immune escape mediated by the release of exosomal circRNA. Given the intrinsic stability, abundance, and broad distribution of exosomal circRNAs, they represent excellent diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers for liquid biopsy. Moreover, artificially synthesized circRNAs may open up new possibilities for cancer therapy, potentially bolstered by nanoparticles or plant exosome delivery strategies. In this review, we summarize the functions and underlying mechanisms of tumor cell and non-tumor cell-derived exosomal circRNAs in cancer progression, with a special focus on their roles in tumor immunity and metabolism. Finally, we examine the potential application of exosomal circRNAs as diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets, highlighting their promise for clinical use.

Abstract
Kidney stone disease (KSD) is one of the earliest medical diseases known, but the mechanism of its formation and metabolic changes remain unclear. The formation of kidney stones is a extensive and complicated process, which is regulated by metabolic changes in various substances. In this manuscript, we summarized the progress of research on metabolic changes in kidney stone disease and discuss the valuable role of some new potential targets. We reviewed the influence of metabolism of some common substances on stone formation, such as the regulation of oxalate, the release of reactive oxygen species (ROS), macrophage polarization, the levels of hormones, and the alternation of other substances. New insights into changes in substance metabolism changes in kidney stone disease, as well as emerging research techniques, will provide new directions in the treatment of stones. Reviewing the great progress that has been made in this field will help to improve the understanding by urologists, nephrologists, and health care providers of the metabolic changes in kidney stone disease, and contribute to explore new metabolic targets for clinical therapy.

Abstract
Recent evidence has shown significant roles of mitochondria-derived vesicles (MDVs) in mitochondrial quality control (MQC) system. Under mild stress condition, MDVs are formed to carry the malfunctioned mitochondrial components, such as mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), peptides, proteins and lipids, to be eliminated to restore normal mitochondrial structure and functions. Under severe oxidative stress condition, mitochondrial dynamics (fission/fusion) and mitophagy are predominantly activated to rescue mitochondrial structure and functions. Additionally, MDVs generation can be also triggered as the major MQC machinery to cope with unhealthy mitochondria when mitophagy is unsuccessful for eliminating the damaged mitochondria or mitochondrial fission/fusion fail to recover the mitochondrial structure and functions. This review summarizes the current knowledge on MDVs and discuss their roles in physiologic and pathophysiologic conditions. In addition, the potential clinical relevance of MDVs in therapeutics and diagnostics of kidney stone disease (KSD) are emphasized.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Kidney stone disease (KSD) is commonly accompanied with renal fibrosis, characterized by accumulation and reorganization of extracellular matrix (ECM). During fibrogenesis, resident renal fibroblasts are activated to become myofibroblasts that actively produce ECM. However, such fibroblast-myofibroblast differentiation in KSD remained unclear. Our present study thus examined effects of secreted products (secretome) derived from proximal (HK-2) vs. distal (MDCK) renal tubular cells exposed to calcium oxalate monohydrate (COM) crystals on activation of renal fibroblasts (BHK-21). METHODS HK-2 and MDCK cells were treated with 100 µg/ml COM crystals under serum-free condition for 16 h. In parallel, the cells maintained in serum-free medium without COM treatment served as the control. Secretome derived from culture supernatant of each sample was mixed (1:1) with fresh serum-free medium and then used for BHK-21 culture for another 24 h. RESULTS Analyses revealed that COM-treated-HK-2 secretome significantly induced proliferation, caused morphological changes, increased spindle index, and upregulated fibroblast-activation markers (F-actin, α-SMA and fibronectin) in BHK-21 cells. However, COM-treated-MDCK secretome had no significant effects on these BHK-21 parameters. Moreover, level of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1), a profibrotic factor, significantly increased in the COM-treated-HK-2 secretome but not in the COM-treated-MDCK secretome. CONCLUSIONS These data indicate, for the first time, that proximal and distal tubular epithelial cells exposed to COM crystals send different messages to resident renal fibroblasts. Only the secretome derived from proximal tubular cells, not that from the distal cells, induces renal fibroblast activation after their exposure to COM crystals. Such differential effects are partly due to TGF-β1 secretion, which is induced by COM crystals only in proximal tubular cells.

Abstract
Mass spectrometry-based proteomics has been extensively applied to current biomedical research. From such large-scale identification of proteins, several computational tools have been developed for determining protein-protein interactions (PPI) network and functional significance of the identified proteins and their complex. Analyses of PPI network and functional enrichment have been widely applied to various fields of biomedical research. Herein, we summarize commonly used tools for PPI network analysis and functional enrichment in kidney stone research and discuss their applications to kidney stone disease (KSD). Such computational approach has been used mainly to investigate PPI networks and functional significance of the proteins derived from urine of patients with kidney stone (stone formers), stone matrix, Randall's plaque, renal papilla, renal tubular cells, mitochondria and immune cells. The data obtained from computational biotechnology leads to experimental validation and investigations that offer new knowledge on kidney stone formation processes. Moreover, the computational approach may also lead to defining new therapeutic targets and preventive strategies for better outcome in KSD management.

Abstract
Background The incidence rate of kidney stones increased over the past decades globally, which brought medical expenditure and social burden. The systemic immune-inflammatory index (SII) was initially identified as a prognosis of multiple diseases. We performed an updated analysis on the impact of SII on kidney stones. Methods This compensatory cross-sectional study enrolled participants from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2007-2018. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to investigate the association between SII and kidney stones. Results Of the 22220 participants, the mean (SD) age was 49.45 ± 17.36 years old, with a 9.87% incidence rate of kidney stones. A fully adjusted model showed that SII higher than 330 x 109/L was parallel associated with kidney stones (Odds ratio [OR] = 1.282, 95% Confidence interval [CI] = 1.023 to 1.608, P = 0.034) in adults aged 20-50. However, no difference was found in the elderly subgroup. Multiple imputation analyses confirmed the robustness of our results. Conclusions Our findings suggested SII was positively associated with a high risk of kidney stones in US adults aged less than 50. The outcome compensated for previous studies that still needed more large-scale prospective cohorts for validation.

Abstract
Bacterial overgrowth is common for improperly stored urine. However, its effects on human urinary extracellular vesicles (uEVs) study had not been previously examined nor documented. This study investigated the presence of bacterial EVs (bEVs) contaminated in uEVs samples and their effects on uEVs study. Nanoscale uEVs were isolated from normal human urine immediately after collection (0-h) or after 25°C-storage with/without preservative (10 mM NaN3) for up to 24-h. Turbidity, bacterial count and total uEVs proteins abnormally increased in the 8-h and 24-h-stored urine without NaN3. NanoLC-ESI-LTQ-Orbitrap MS/MS identified 6-13 bacterial proteins in these contaminated uEVs samples. PCR also detected bacterial DNAs in these contaminated uEVs samples. Besides, uEVs derived from 8-h and 24-h urine without NaN3 induced macrophage activation (CD11b and phagocytosis) and secretion of cytokines (IFN-α, IL-8, and TGF-β) from macrophages and renal cells (HEK-293, HK-2, and MDCK). All of these effects induced by bacterial contamination were partially/completely prevented by NaN3. Interestingly, macrophage activation and cytokine secretion were also induced by bEVs purified from Escherichia coli. This study clearly shows evidence of bEVs contamination and their effects on human uEVs study when the urine samples were inappropriately stored, whereas NaN3 can partially/completely prevent such effects from the contaminated bEVs.

Abstract
Many types of renal disease eventually progress to end-stage renal disease, which can only be maintained by renal replacement therapy. Therefore, kidney diseases now contribute significantly to the health care burden in many countries. Many new advances and strategies have been found in the research involving kidney diseases; however, there is still no efficient treatment. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are cell-derived membrane structures, which contains proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids. After internalization by downstream cells, these components can still maintain functional activity and regulate the phenotype of downstream cells. EVs drive the information exchange between cells and tissues. Majority of the cells can produce EVs; however, its production, contents, and transportation may be affected by various factors. EVs have been proved to play an important role in the occurrence, development, and treatment of renal diseases. However, the mechanism and potential applications of EVs in kidney diseases remain unclear. This review summarizes the latest research of EVs in renal diseases, and provides new therapeutic targets and strategies for renal diseases.

Abstract
Metallic ions have been widely investigated and incorporated into bone substitutes for bone regeneration owing to their superior capacity to induce angiogenesis and osteogenesis. Exosomes are key paracrine mediators that play a crucial role in cell-to-cell communication. However, the role of exosomes in metallic ion-induced bone formation and their underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Thus, this review systematically analyzes the effects of metallic ions and metallic ion-incorporated biomaterials on exosome secretion from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and macrophages, as well as the effects of secreted exosomes on inflammation, angiogenesis, and osteogenesis. In addition, possible signaling pathways involved in metallic ion-mediated exosomes, followed by bone regeneration, are discussed. Despite limited investigation, metallic ions have been confirmed to regulate exosome production and function, affecting immune response, angiogenesis, and osteogenesis. Although the underlying mechanism is not yet clear, these insights enrich our understanding of the mechanisms of the metallic ion-induced microenvironment for bone regeneration, benefiting the design of metallic ion-incorporated implants.

Abstract
Exosomes are the self-packed nanoscale vesicles (nanovesicles) derived from late endosomes and released from the cells to the extracellular milieu. Exosomal biogenesis is based on endosomal pathway to form the nanovesicles surrounded by membrane originated from plasma membranes of the parental cells. During biogenesis, exosomes selectively encapsulate an array of biomolecules (proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, metabolites, etc.), thereby conveying diverse messages for cell-cell communications. Once released, these exosomal contents trigger signaling and trafficking that play roles in cell growth, development, immune responses, homeostasis, remodeling, etc. Recent advances in exosomal research have provided a wealth of useful information that enhances our knowledge on the roles for exosomes in pathogenic mechanisms of human diseases involving a wide variety of organ systems. In the kidney, exosomes play divergent roles, ranging from pathogenesis to therapeutics, based on their original sources and type of interventions. Herein, we summarize and update the current knowledge on the divergent roles of exosomes involving the pathogenesis, diagnostics, prognostics, and therapeutics in various groups of kidney diseases, including acute kidney injury, immune-mediated kidney diseases (e.g., IgA nephropathy, lupus nephritis, membranous nephropathy, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis), chronic kidney disease (caused by diabetic nephropathy and others), renal cell carcinoma, nephrolithiasis, kidney transplantation and related complications, and polycystic kidney disease. Finally, the future perspectives on research in this area are discussed.

Abstract
Tumour immunity plays an important role in the development of cancer. Tumour immunotherapy is an important component of antitumour therapy. Exosomes, a type of extracellular vesicle, act as mediators of intercellular communication and molecular transfer and play an essential role in tumour immunity. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a new type of noncoding RNA that are enriched within exosomes. In this review, we describe the effects of exosomal circRNAs on various immune cells and the mechanisms of these effects, including macrophages, neutrophils, T cells, and Natural killer (NK) cells. Next, we elaborate on the latest progress of exosome extraction. In addition, the function of exosomal circRNAs as a potential prognostic and drug sensitivity marker is described. We present the great promise of exosomal circRNAs in regulating tumour immunity, predicting patient outcomes, and evaluating drug efficacy.

Trigonelline prevents kidney stone formation processes by inhibiting calcium oxalate crystallization, growth and crystal-cell adhesion, and downregulating crystal receptors. Biomed Pharmacother 2022; 149:112876. [PMID: 35367760 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2022.112876] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/20/2022] [Revised: 03/18/2022] [Accepted: 03/23/2022] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Trigonelline is the second most abundant bioactive alkaloid found in coffee. It is classified as a phytoestrogen with similar structure as of estradiol and exhibits an estrogenic effect. A previous study has reported that fenugreek seed extract rich with trigonelline can reduce renal crystal deposition in ethylene glycol-induced nephrolithiatic rats. However, direct evidence of such anti-lithogenic effects of trigonelline and underlying mechanisms have not previously been reported. Our study therefore addressed the protective effects and mechanisms of trigonelline against kidney stone-forming processes using crystallization, crystal growth, aggregation and crystal-cell adhesion assays. Also, proteomics was applied to identify changes in receptors for calcium oxalate monohydrate (COM), the most common stone-forming crystal, on apical membranes of trigonelline-treated renal tubular cells. The analyses revealed that trigonelline significantly reduced COM crystal size, number and mass during crystallization. Additionally, trigonelline dose-dependently inhibited crystal growth and crystal-cell adhesion, but did not affect crystal aggregation. Mass spectrometric protein identification showed the smaller number of COM crystal receptors on apical membranes of the trigonelline-treated cells. Western blotting confirmed the decreased levels of some of these crystal receptors by trigonelline. These data highlight the protective mechanisms of trigonelline against kidney stone development by inhibiting COM crystallization, crystal growth and crystal-cell adhesion via downregulation of the crystal receptors on apical membranes of renal tubular cells.

Abstract
Coronary atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease that can lead to varying degrees of blood flow obstruction and a common pathophysiological basis of cardiovascular disease. Inflammatory factors run through the whole process of atherosclerotic lesions. Macrophages, T cells, and neutrophils play important roles in the process of atherosclerotic inflammation. Considering the evolutionary characteristics, atherosclerosis can be divided into different stages as early atherosclerotic plaque, plaque formation stage, and plaque rupture stage. In this paper, the changes in inflammatory cells at different stages of lesions and their related mechanisms are discussed, which can provide new insights from a clinical to bench perspective for atherosclerosis me chanism.

Abstract
Urolithiasis (UL) involves the formation of stones in different parts of the urinary tract. UL is a health problem, and its prevalence has increased considerably in developing countries. Several regions use plants in traditional medicine as an alternative in the treatment or prevention of UL. Mexico has known about the role of traditional medicine in the management of urinary stones. Mexican traditional medicine uses plants such as Argemone mexicana L., Berberis trifoliata Hartw. ex Lindl., Costus mexicanus Liebm, Chenopodium album L., Ammi visnaga (L.) Lam., Eysenhardtia polystachya (Ortega) Sarg., Selaginella lepidophylla (Hook. & Grev.) Spring, and Taraxacum officinale L. These plants contain different bioactive compounds, including polyphenols, flavonoids, phytosterols, saponins, furanochromones, alkaloids, and terpenoids, which could be effective in preventing the process of stone formation. Evidence suggests that their beneficial effects might be associated with litholytic, antispasmodic, and diuretic activities, as well as an inhibitory effect on crystallization, nucleation, and aggregation of crystals. The molecular mechanisms involving these effects could be related to antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties. Thus, the review aims to summarize the preclinical evidence, bioactive compounds, and molecular mechanisms of the plants used in Mexican traditional medicine for the management of UL.

Abstract
Calcium oxalate (CaOx) crystals are the main component of kidney stones. Macrophages have the function of eliminating these crystals, and the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Here, we attempted to determine the role of macrophage-derived exosomes exposed to CaOx crystals in regulating apoptosis of human proximal tubular cells (HK-2). Exosomes (CaOx-Exo) were isolated from CaOx-treated macrophages and then incubated with HK-2 cells. CaOx-Exo treatment reduced cell viability and promoted apoptosis of HK-2 cells. The expression of Caspase-3 and Bax was increased, and Bcl-2 expression was decreased in HK-2 cells following CaOx-Exo treatment. Moreover, CaOx-Exo treatment caused an increase of LC3-II/LC3-I ratio and Beclin-1 expression and a downregulation of p62 in HK-2 cells. GFP-LC3 puncta were increased in HK-2 cells following CaOx-Exo treatment. Additionally, CaOx-Exo-treated HK-2 cells were treated with 3-methyladenine (3-MA) to inhibit autophagy activity. 3-MA treatment weakened the impact of CaOx-Exo on cell viability and apoptosis of HK-2 cells. 3-MA treatment also reduced the LC3-II/LC3-I ratio and Beclin-1 expression and enhanced p62 expression in CaOx-Exo-treated HK-2 cells. In conclusion, these data demonstrated that exosomes derived from CaOx-treated macrophages promote apoptosis of HK-2 cells by promoting autophagy. Thus, this work suggests that macrophage-derived exosomes may play a vital role in CaOx-induced human proximal tubular cell damage.

Abstract
Background Kidney stone disease (KSD) is a multifactorial disease involving both environmental and genetic factors, whose pathogenesis remains unclear. This study aims to explore the hub genes related to stone formation that could serve as potential therapeutic targets. Methods Based on the GSE73680 dataset with 62 samples, differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between Randall’s plaque (RP) tissues and normal tissues were screened and weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) was applied to identify key modules associated with KSD. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis were performed to explore the biological functions. The protein–protein interaction (PPI) network was constructed to identify hub genes. Meanwhile, CIBERSORT and ssGSEA analysis were used to estimate the infiltration level of the immune cells. The correlations between hub genes and immune infiltration levels were also investigated. Finally, the top hub gene was selected for further GSEA analysis. Results A total of 116 DEGs, including 73 up-regulated and 43 down-regulated genes, were screened in the dataset. The red module was identified as the key module correlated with KSD. 53 genes were obtained for functional enrichment analysis by taking the intersection of DEGs and genes in the red module. GO analysis showed that these genes were mainly involved in extracellular matrix organization (ECM) and extracellular structure organization, and others. KEGG analysis revealed that the pathways of aldosterone-regulated sodium reabsorption, cell adhesion molecules, arachidonic acid (AA) metabolism, and ECM-receptor interaction were enriched. Through PPI network construction, 30 hub genes were identified. CIBERSORT analysis revealed a significantly increased proportion of M0 macrophages, while ssGSEA revealed no significant differences. Among these hub genes, SPP1, LCN2, MMP7, MUC1, SCNN1A, CLU, SLP1, LAMC2, and CYSLTR2 were positively correlated with macrophages infiltration. GSEA analysis found that positive regulation of JNK activity was enriched in RP tissues with high SPP1 expression, while negative regulation of IL-1β production was enriched in the low-SPP1 subgroup. Conclusions There are 30 hub genes associated with KSD, among which SPP1 is the top hub gene with the most extensive links with other hub genes. SPP1 might play a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of KSD, which is expected to become a potential therapeutic target, while its interaction with macrophages in KSD needs further investigation.

Abstract
Aging is characterized by a progressive decline of skeletal muscle (SM) mass and strength which may lead to sarcopenia in older persons. To date, a limited number of studies have been performed in the old SM looking at the whole, complex network of the extracellular matrix (i.e., matrisome) and its aging-associated changes. In this study, skeletal muscle proteins were isolated from whole gastrocnemius muscles of adult (12 mo.) and old (24 mo.) mice using three sequential extractions, each one analyzed by liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry. Muscle sections were investigated using fluorescence- and transmission electron microscopy. This study provided the first characterization of the matrisome in the old SM demonstrating several statistically significantly increased matrisome proteins in the old vs. adult SM. Several proteomic findings were confirmed and expanded by morphological data. The current findings shed new light on the mutually cooperative interplay between cells and the extracellular environment in the aging SM. These data open the door for a better understanding of the mechanisms modulating myocellular behavior in aging (e.g., by altering mechano-sensing stimuli as well as signaling pathways) and their contribution to age-dependent muscle dysfunction.

Abstract
The association between kidney stone disease and renal fibrosis has been widely explored in recent years but its underlying mechanisms remain far from complete understanding. Using label-free quantitative proteomics (nanoLC-ESI-LTQ-Orbitrap MS/MS), this study identified 23 significantly altered secreted proteins from calcium oxalate monohydrate (COM)-exposed macrophages (COM-MP) compared with control macrophages (Ctrl-MP) secretome. Functional annotation and protein-protein interactions network analysis revealed that these altered secreted proteins were involved mainly in inflammatory response and fibroblast activation. BHK-21 renal fibroblasts treated with COM-MP secretome had more spindle-shaped morphology with greater spindle index. Immunofluorescence study and gelatin zymography revealed increased levels of fibroblast activation markers (α-smooth muscle actin and F-actin) and fibrotic factors (fibronectin and matrix metalloproteinase-9 and -2) in the COM-MP secretome-treated fibroblasts. Our findings indicate that proteins secreted from macrophages exposed to COM crystals induce renal fibroblast activation and may play important roles in renal fibrogenesis in kidney stone disease.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Main problems of kidney stone disease are its increasing prevalence and high recurrence rate after calculi removal in almost all areas around the globe. Despite enormous efforts in the past, its pathogenic mechanisms remain unclear and need further elucidations. Proteomics has thus become an essential tool to unravel such sophisticated disease mechanisms at cellular, subcellular, molecular, tissue, and whole organism levels. AREAS COVERED This review provides abrief overview of kidney stone disease followed by updates on proteomics for investigating urinary stone modulators, matrix proteins, cellular responses to different types/doses of calcium oxalate (CaOx) crystals, sex hormones and other stimuli, crystal-cell interactions, crystal receptors, secretome, and extracellular vesicles (EVs), all of which lead to better understanding of the disease mechanisms. Finally, the future challenges and translation of these obtained data to the clinic are discussed. EXPERT OPINION Knowledge from urinary proteomics for exploring the important stone modulators (either inhibitors or promoters) will be helpful for early detection of asymptomatic cases for prompt prevention of symptoms, complications, and new stone formation. Moreover, these modulators may serve as the new therapeutic targets in the future for successful treatment and prevention of kidney stone disease by medications or other means of intervention.

Abstract
Intercellular communication governs multicellular interactions in complex organisms. A variety of mechanisms exist through which cells can communicate, e.g., cell-cell contact, the release of paracrine/autocrine soluble molecules, or the transfer of extracellular vesicles (EVs). EVs are membrane-surrounded structures released by almost all cell types, acting both nearby and distant from their tissue/organ of origin. In the kidney, EVs are potent intercellular messengers released by all urinary system cells and are involved in cell crosstalk, contributing to physiology and pathogenesis. Moreover, urine is a reservoir of EVs coming from the circulation after crossing the glomerular filtration barrier—or originating in the kidney. Thus, urine represents an alternative source for biomarkers in kidney-related diseases, potentially replacing standard diagnostic techniques, including kidney biopsy. This review will present an overview of EV biogenesis and classification and the leading procedures for isolating EVs from body fluids. Furthermore, their role in intra-nephron communication and their use as a diagnostic tool for precision medicine in kidney-related disorders will be discussed.

Abstract
Kidney stone disease is one of the oldest diseases known to medicine; however, the mechanisms of stone formation and development remain largely unclear. Over the past decades, a variety of theories and strategies have been developed and utilized in the surgical management of kidney stones, as a result of recent technological advances. Observations from the authors and other research groups suggest that there are five entirely different main mechanisms for kidney stone formation. Urinary supersaturation and crystallization are the driving force for intrarenal crystal precipitation. Randall's plaques are recognized as the origin of calcium oxalate stone formation. Sex hormones may be key players in the development of nephrolithiasis and may thus be potential targets for new drugs to suppress kidney stone formation. The microbiome, including urease-producing bacteria, nanobacteria and intestinal microbiota, is likely to have a profound effect on urological health, both positive and negative, owing to its metabolic output and other contributions. Lastly, the immune response, and particularly macrophage differentiation, play crucial roles in renal calcium oxalate crystal formation. In the present study, the current knowledge for each of these five aspects of kidney stone formation is reviewed. This knowledge may be used to explore novel research opportunities and improve the understanding of the initiation and development of kidney stones for urologists, nephrologists and primary care.

Excretion of urine extracellular vesicles bearing markers of activated immune cells and calcium/phosphorus physiology differ between calcium kidney stone formers and non-stone formers. BMC Nephrol 2021; 22:204. [PMID: 34074247 PMCID: PMC8170929 DOI: 10.1186/s12882-021-02417-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/26/2020] [Accepted: 05/24/2021] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUNDS Previous studies have demonstrated that excretion of urinary extracellular vesicles (EVs) from different nephron segments differs between kidney stone formers and non-stone formers (NSFs), and could reflect pathogenic mechanisms of urinary stone disease. In this study we quantified selected populations of specific urinary EVs carrying protein markers of immune cells and calcium/phosphorus physiology in calcium oxalate stone formers (CSFs) compared to non-stone formers (NSFs). METHODS Biobanked urine samples from CSFs (n = 24) undergoing stone removal surgery and age- and sex- matched NSFs (n = 21) were studied. Urinary EVs carrying proteins related to renal calcium/phosphorus physiology (phosphorus transporters (PiT1 and PiT2), Klotho, and fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23); markers associated with EV generation (anoctamin-4 (ANO4) and Huntington interacting protein 1 (HIP1)), and markers shed from activated immune cells were quantified by standardized and published method of digital flow cytometry. RESULTS Urine excretion of calcium, oxalate, phosphorus, and calcium oxalate supersaturation (SS) were significantly higher in CSFs compared to NSFs (P < 0.05). Urinary excretion of EVs with markers of total leukocytes (CD45), neutrophils (CD15), macrophages (CD68), Klotho, FGF23, PiT1, PiT2, and ANO4 were each markedly lower in CSFs than NSFs (P < 0.05) whereas excretion of those with markers of monocytes (CD14), T-Lymphocytes (CD3), B-Lymphocytes (CD19), plasma cells (CD138 plus CD319 positive) were not different between the groups. Urinary excretion of EVs expressing PiT1 and PiT2 negatively (P < 0.05) correlated with urinary phosphorus excretion, whereas excretion of EVs expressing FGF23 negatively (P < 0.05) correlated with both urinary calcium and phosphorus excretion. Urinary EVs with markers of HIP1 and ANO4 correlated negatively (P < 0.05) with clinical stone events and basement membrane calcifications on papillary tip biopsies. CONCLUSIONS Urinary excretion of EVs derived from specific types of activated immune cells and EVs with proteins related to calcium/phosphorus regulation differed between CSFs and NSFs. Further validation of these and other populations of urinary EVs in larger cohort could identify biomarkers that elucidate novel pathogenic mechanisms of calcium stone formation in specific subsets of patients.

Abstract
Background The global prevalence and recurrence rate of kidney stones is very high. Recent studies of Randall plaques and urinary components in vivo, and in vitro including gene manipulation, have attempted to reveal the pathogenesis of kidney stones. However, the evidence remains insufficient to facilitate the development of novel curative therapies. The involvement of renal and peripheral macrophages in inflammatory processes offers promise that might lead to the development of therapeutic targets. The present systematic literature review aimed to determine current consensus about the functions of macrophages in renal crystal development and suppression, and to synthesize evidence to provide a basis for future immunotherapy. Methods We systematically reviewed the literature during February 2021 according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Articles investigating the relationship between macrophages and urolithiasis, particularly calcium oxalate (CaOx) stones, were extracted from PubMed, MEDLINE, Embase, and Scopus. Study subjects, languages, and publication dates were unrestricted. Two authors searched and screened the publications. Results Although several studies have applied mixed modalities, we selected 10, 12, and seven (total, n = 29) of 380 articles that respectively described cultured cells, animal models, and human samples. The investigative trend has shifted to macrophage phenotypes and signaling pathways, including micro (m)-RNAs since the discovery of macrophage involvement in kidney stones in 1999. Earlier studies of mice-associated macrophages with the acceleration and suppression of renal crystal formation. Later studies found that pro-inflammatory M1- and anti-inflammatory M2-macrophages are involved. Studies of human-derived and other macrophages in vitro and ex vivo showed that M2-macrophages (stimulated by CSF-1, IL-4, and IL-13) can phagocytose CaOx crystals, which suppresses stone development. The signaling mechanisms that promote M2-like macrophage polarization toward CaOx nephrocalcinosis, include the NLRP3, PPARγ-miR-23-Irf1/Pknox1, miR-93-TLR4/IRF1, and miR-185-5p/CSF1 pathways. Proteomic findings have indicated that patients who form kidney stones mainly express M1-like macrophage-related proteins, which might be due to CaOx stimulation of the macrophage exosomal pathway. Conclusions This systematic review provides an update regarding the current status of macrophage involvement in CaOx nephrolithiasis. Targeting M2-like macrophage function might offer a therapeutic strategy with which to prevent stones via crystal phagocytosis.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs), such as exosomes and microvesicles, are cell-derived lipid bilayer membrane particles, which deliver information from host cells to recipient cells. EVs are involved in various biological processes including the modulation of the immune response, cell-to-cell communications, thrombosis, and tissue regeneration. Different types of kidney cells are known to release EVs under physiologic as well as pathologic conditions, and recent studies have found that EVs have a pathophysiologic role in different renal diseases. Given the recent advancement in EV isolation and analysis techniques, many studies have shown the diagnostic and therapeutic potential of EVs in various renal diseases, such as acute kidney injury, polycystic kidney disease, chronic kidney disease, kidney transplantation, and renal cell carcinoma. This review updates recent clinical and experimental findings on the role of EVs in renal diseases and highlights the potential clinical applicability of EVs as novel diagnostics and therapeutics.

Abstract
PURPOSE To identify glucocorticoid-responsive proteins measurable in human serum that may have clinical utility in therapeutic drug monitoring and the diagnosis of cortisol excess or deficiency. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN A phased biomarker discovery strategy was conducted in two cohorts. Secretome from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) isolated from six volunteers after ex vivo incubation ± dexamethasone (DEX) 100 ng/mL for 4 h and 24 h was used for candidate discovery and qualification using untargeted proteomics and a custom multiple reaction monitoring mass spectrometry (MRM-MS) assay, respectively. For validation, five candidates were measured by immunoassay in serum from an independent cohort (n = 20), sampled at 1200 h before and after 4 mg oral DEX. RESULTS The discovery secretome proteomics data generated a shortlist of 45 candidates, with 43 measured in the final MRM-MS assay. Differential analysis revealed 16 proteins that were significant in at least one of two time points. In the validation cohort, 3/5 serum proteins were DEX-responsive, two significantly decreased: lysozyme C (p < 0.0001) and nucleophosmin-1 (p < 0.01), while high mobility group box 2 significantly increased (p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE Using an ex vivo proteomic approach in PBMC, we have identified circulating glucocorticoid-responsive proteins which may have potential as serum biomarkers of glucocorticoid activity.

Abstract
Inflammasome is a complex of multiple proteins found in cytoplasm of the cells activated by infectious and/or non-infectious stimuli. This complex involves caspase-1 activation, leading to unconventional secretion of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and IL-18 and inflammatory cascade. Exosome is the nanoscale membrane-bound extracellular vesicle that plays significant roles in intercellular communications by carrying bioactive molecules, e.g., proteins, RNAs, microRNAs (miRNAs), DNAs, from one cell to the others. In this review, we provide the update information on the crosstalk between exosome and inflammasome and their roles in inflammatory responses. The effects of inflammasome activation on exosomal secretion are summarized. On the other hand, the (dual) effects of exosomes on inhibiting and promoting inflammasome activation are discussed. Finally, perspectives on therapeutic roles of exosomes in human diseases and future direction of the research on exosome-inflammasome crosstalk are provided.

Abstract
Although SARS-CoV-2 can invade the intestine, though its effect on digestion and absorption is not fully understood. In the present study, 56 COVID-19 patients and 47 age- and sex-matched healthy subjects were divided into a discovery cohort and a validation cohort. Blood, faeces and clinical information were collected from the patients in the hospital and at discharge. The faecal metabolome was analysed using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, and Spearman’s correlation analyses of clinical features, the serum metabolome, and the faecal micro- and mycobiota were conducted. The results showed that, the faeces of COVID-19 patients were enriched with important nutrients that should be metabolized or absorbed, such as sucrose and 2-palmitoyl-glycerol; diet-related components that cannot be synthesized by humans, such as 1,5-anhydroglucitol and D-pinitol; and harmful metabolites, such as oxalate, were also detected. In contrast, purine metabolites such as deoxyinosine and hypoxanthine, low-water-soluble long-chain fatty alcohols/acids such as behenic acid, compounds rarely occurring in nature such as D-allose and D-arabinose, and microbe-related compounds such as 2,4-di-tert-butylphenol were depleted in the faeces of COVID-19 patients. Moreover, these metabolites significantly correlated with altered serum metabolites such as oxalate and gut microbesincluding Ruminococcaceae, Actinomyces, Sphingomonas and Aspergillus. Although levels of several faecal metabolites, such as sucrose, 1,5-anhydroglucitol and D-pinitol, of discharged patients were not different from those of healthy controls (HCs), those of oxalate and 2-palmitoyl-glycerol did differ. Therefore, alterations in the faecal metabolome of COVID-19 patients may reflect malnutrition and intestinal inflammation and warrant greater attention. The results of present study provide new insights into the pathogenesis and treatment of COVID-19.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Primary hyperoxaluria type 1 (PH1) is associated with nephrocalcinosis (NC) and calcium oxalate (CaOx) kidney stones (KS). Populations of urinary extracellular vesicles (EVs) can reflect kidney pathology. The aim of this study was to determine whether urinary EVs carrying specific biomarkers and proteins differ among PH1 patients with NC, KS or with neither disease process. METHODS Mayo Clinic Rare Kidney Stone Consortium bio-banked cell-free urine from male and female PH1 patients without (n = 10) and with NC (n = 6) or KS (n = 9) and an eGFR > 40 mL/min/1.73 m2 were studied. Urinary EVs were quantified by digital flow cytometer and results expressed as EVs/ mg creatinine. Expressions of urinary proteins were measured by customized antibody array and results expressed as relative intensity. Data were analyzed by ANCOVA adjusting for sex, and biomarkers differences were considered statistically significant among groups at a false discovery rate threshold of Q < 0.20. RESULTS Total EVs and EVs from different types of glomerular and renal tubular cells (11/13 markers) were significantly (Q < 0.20) altered among PH1 patients without NC and KS, patients with NC or patients with KS alone. Three cellular adhesion/inflammatory (ICAM-1, MCP-1, and tissue factor) markers carrying EVs were statistically (Q < 0.20) different between PH1 patients groups. Three renal injury (β2-microglobulin, laminin α5, and NGAL) marker-positive urinary EVs out of 5 marker assayed were statistically (Q < 0.20) different among PH1 patients without and with NC or KS. The number of immune/inflammatory cell-derived (8 different cell markers positive) EVs were statistically (Q < 0.20) different between PH1 patients groups. EV generation markers (ANO4 and HIP1) and renal calcium/phosphate regulation or calcifying matrixvesicles markers (klotho, PiT1/2) were also statistically (Q < 0.20) different between PH1 patients groups. Only 13 (CD14, CD40, CFVII, CRP, E-cadherin, EGFR, endoglin, fetuin A, MCP-1, neprilysin, OPN, OPGN, and PDGFRβ) out of 40 proteins were significantly (Q < 0.20) different between PH1 patients without and with NC or KS. CONCLUSIONS These results imply activation of distinct renal tubular and interstitial cell populations and processes associated with KS and NC, and suggest specific populations of urinary EVs and proteins are potential biomarkers to assess the pathogenic mechanisms between KS versus NC among PH1 patients.

Differential bound proteins and adhesive capabilities of calcium oxalate monohydrate crystals with various sizes. Int J Biol Macromol 2020; 163:2210-2223. [PMID: 32956748 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2020.09.085] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/13/2020] [Revised: 09/02/2020] [Accepted: 09/12/2020] [Indexed: 12/22/2022]
Abstract
Adhesion of calcium oxalate (CaOx) crystals onto renal tubular epithelial cells is one of the critical steps in kidney stone formation. However, effects of crystal size on the crystal adhesive capability remained unclear. This study compared the adhesive capabilities of CaOx monohydrate (COM) crystals with various sizes (<10 μm, 20-30 μm, 50-60 μm, and > 80 μm). Crystal-cell adhesion assay showed size-dependent increase of COM crystal adhesion onto epithelial cell surface using the larger crystals. Identification of apical membrane proteins that could bind to COM crystals by tandem mass spectrometry (nanoLC-ESI-ETD MS/MS) demonstrated size-specific sets of the COM crystal-binding proteins. Among these, numbers of known oxalate-binding proteins and COM crystal receptors were greatest in the set of the largest size (>80 μm). Atomic force microscopy (AFM) revealed that adhesive forces between carboxylic-immobilized AFM tip and COM crystal surface and between COM-mounted AFM tip and renal epithelial cell surface were size-dependent (greater for the larger crystals). In summary, the adhesive capability of COM crystals is size-dependent - the larger the greater adhesive capability. These data may help better understanding of the pathogenic mechanisms of kidney stone formation at an initial stage when renal tubular cells are exposed to various sizes of COM crystals.

Abstract
The crosstalk between macrophages and gastric epithelial cells has emerged as a player in chronic inflammation during intestinal metaplasia. However, the role of bile acid on this modulation remains to be studied. We hypothesized that deoxycholic acid-induced macrophages secreted exosomes to mediate intercellular communication and promoted intestinal metaplasia in human gastric epithelial cells (GES-1 cells). Macrophage-derived exosomes (M-Exos) and deoxycholic acid-induced macrophage-derived exosomes (D-Exos) were isolated by ultracentrifugation. EdU staining and CCK-8 assay were utilized to evaluate the effects of exosomes on the proliferation of GES-1 cells. Intestinal metaplasia was assessed by the expression of caudal-related homeobox transcription factor 2 (CDX2) at both mRNA and protein level. MicroRNA sequencing revealed the microRNA (miRNA) expression profiles of M-Exos and D-Exos. The role of a specific miRNA and mRNA was analyzed by using miRNA mimics, miRNA inhibitors and siRNAs. D-Exos promoted the expression of CDX2 and suppressed the proliferation of GES-1 cells, compared to M-Exos. The miRNA profiles and quantitative real-time PCR examination showed D-Exos enriched a higher level of hsa-miR-30a-5p than M-Exos. Overexpressed has-miR-30a-5p increased CDX2 expression and inhibited the proliferation in GES-1 cells via targeted Forkhead Box D1 (FOXD1), a potential regulatory factor in the process of intestinal metaplasia. D-Exos may promote intestinal metaplasia and suppress proliferation of GES-1 cells via hsa-miR-30a-5p targeting FOXD1, which may be involved in the action mechanism of bile acid on gastric mucosa.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EV) are nanosized particles released by a large variety of cells. They carry molecules such as proteins, RNA and lipids. While urinary EVs have been longer studied as a source of biomarkers for renal and non-renal disorders, research on EVs as regulatory players of renal physiological and pathological processes has experienced an outbreak recently in the past decade. In general, the microenvironment and (patho)physiological state of the donor cells affect the cargo of the EVs released, which then determines the effect of these EVs once they reach a target cell. For instance, EVs released by renal epithelial cells modulate the expression and function of water and solute transporting proteins in other cells. Also, EVs have been demonstrated to regulate renal organogenesis and blood flow. Furthermore, a dual role of EVs promoting, but also counteracting, disease has also been reported. EVs released by renal tubular cells can reach fibroblasts, monocytes, macrophages, T cells and natural killer cells, thus influencing the pathogenesis and progression of renal disorders like acute kidney injury and fibrosis, nephrolithiasis, renal transplant rejection and renal cancer, among others. On the contrary, EVs may also exert a cytoprotective role upon renal damage and promote recovery of renal function. In the current review, a systematic summary of the key studies from the past 5 years addressing the role of EVs in the modulation of renal physiological and pathophysiological processes is provided, highlighting open questions and discussing the potential of future research.

Abstract
RATIONALE Spasmolytic polypeptide-expressing metaplasia (SPEM) is an important risk factor for the occurrence of gastric cancer. It may be driven by a chronic inflammatory environment in which macrophage is involved. Studies have shown that intestinal metaplasia may originate from SPEM, and bile acid-induced chronic inflammation plays an important role in the process of intestinal metaplasia. However, whether bile acids are involved in the development of SPEM and the specific mechanism are unclear. Meanwhile, macrophages are known to be involved in inflammation regulation by releasing various factors, including exosomes. In this study, we hypothesized that the exosomes released from macrophages stimulated by deoxycholic acid participated in the development of SPME. METHODS In vivo, mice were gavaged with deoxycholic acid for 4 weeks, and gastric tissues were harvested. In vitro, deoxycholic acid-induced macrophage-derived exosomes were isolated by ultracentrifugation and cocultured with the gastric organoids of mice. Immunofluorescence staining and quantitative real-time PCR were used to analyze markers of macrophages and SPEM. RESULTS In vivo, after 4 weeks of deoxycholic acid intragastric administration, macrophage markers (F4/80) and SPEM markers (TFF2 and GSII lectin) were increased in from treated mice compared with those from normal control mice. In vitro, macrophage-derived exosomes labeled with PKH67 were internalized by gastric organoids. Deoxycholic acid-induced macrophage-derived exosomes increased the expression of SPEM markers (TFF2 and GSII lectin) in gastric organoids compared to exosomes derived from macrophages without deoxycholic acid stimulation. CONCLUSION Macrophage-derived exosomes may be a novel mechanism by which deoxycholic acid promotes SPEM.

Abstract
Exosome is a nanoscale vesicle with a size range of 30–100 nm. It is secreted from cell to extracellular space by exocytosis after fusion of multivesicular body (MVB) (formed by endocytic vesicles) with plasma membrane. Exosome plays several important roles in cellular homeostasis and intercellular communications. During the last two decades, exosome has acquired a wide attention to explore its additional roles in various aspects of cell biology and function in several organ systems. For the kidney, several lines of evidence have demonstrated 1that exosome is involved in the renal physiology and pathogenic mechanisms of various kidney diseases/disorders. This article summarizes roles of the exosome as the potential source of biomarkers, pathogenic molecules, and therapeutic biologics that have been extensively investigated in many kidney diseases/disorders, including lupus nephritis (LN), other glomerular diseases, acute kidney injury (AKI), diabetic nephropathy (DN), as well as in the process of renal fibrosis and chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression, in addition to polycystic kidney disease (PKD), kidney transplantation, and renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Moreover, the most recent evidence has shown its emerging role in kidney stone disease (or nephrolithiasis), involving inflammasome activation and inflammatory cascade frequently found in kidney stone pathogenesis.

Abstract
Estrogen withdrawal in aging women contributes to the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). However, the effect of high circulating follicle‐stimulating hormone (FSH) levels on renal dysfunction remains unknown. In this study, blood samples from 3,055 postmenopausal women were collected and tested, which showed that there was a strong negative correlation between eGFR and FSH levels (p < 0.001), independent of LH, testosterone, and estradiol. Functional FSHR was detected in renal tubular epithelial cells. In vivo, high circulating FSH levels promoted a phenotype of tubulointerstitial fibrosis, characterized by increases in 24‐hr urine protein/creatinine ratio, serum Cr, serum BUN, and ECM deposition. Similar results obtained from cultured HK‐2 cells showed that FSH increased the transcriptional and protein expression of profibrotic mediators (collagen IV, fibronectin, and PAI‐1). This promotion of fibrosis by FSH occurred through the activation of AKT/GSK‐3β/β‐catenin pathway, which could be attenuated by silencing FSHR by siRNA or by LY294002 or MK2206. In addition, FSH‐stimulated HK‐2 cells secreted IL‐8, which promoted macrophage migration to exacerbate tubulointerstitial fibrosis. These results revealed a previously unknown effect of FSH on kidney injury, which may offer a critical insight into the development of CKD in aging postmenopausal women.

Abstract
Urinary extracellular vesicles (EVs), including microvesicles and exosomes, play several important roles in cell biology and serve as potential biomarkers in various kidney diseases. Although they have differential biophysical properties, specific biomarkers are required to discriminate these EVs during isolation/purification. The present study aimed to define differential lipidome profiles of urinary microvesicles vs. exosomes. Urine samples collected from eight healthy individuals were pooled and underwent lipid extraction using 2:1(v/v) chloroform/methanol. The recovered lipids were resolved by thin layer liquid chromatography (TLC) and analyzed by MALDI-TOF MS. From three and five TLC bands observed in microvesicles and exosomes, respectively, several fatty acids, glycerolipids and phospholipids were identified from both EVs without clear differential patterns. However, their sphingolipid profiles were unique. Ceramide phosphates (CerP), hexosyl sphingoid bases (HexSph), lactosyl ceramides (LacCer), mannosyl di-PI-ceramides (M(IP)2 C), sulfatides hexosyl ceramide (SHexCer) and sulfatides hexoxyl sphingoid bases (SHexSph) were detectable only in urinary exosomes, whereas phosphatidylinositol ceramides (PI-Cer) were detectable only in urinary microvesicles. The presence of CerP only in urinary exosomes was successfully validated by dot blot analysis. Our extensive lipidome analyses of urinary microvesicles vs. exosomes provide potential lipidome markers to discriminate exosomes from microvesicles and may lead to better understanding of EVs biogenesis.

Abstract
Nephrolithiasis/urolithiasis (i.e., kidney stone disease) remains a global public health problem with increasing incidence/prevalence. The most common chemical composition of kidney stones is calcium oxalate that initiates stone formation by crystallization, crystal growth, crystal aggregation, crystal–cell adhesion, and crystal invasion through extracellular matrix in renal interstitium. Among these processes, crystal–cell interactions (defined as “the phenomena in which the cell is altered by any means of effects from the crystal that adheres onto cellular surface or is internalized into the cell, accompanying with changes of the crystal, e.g., growth, adhesive capability, degradation, etc., induced by the cell”) are very important for crystal retention in the kidney. During the past 12 years, proteomics has been extensively applied to kidney stone research aiming for better understanding of the pathogenic mechanisms of kidney stone formation. This article provides an overview of the current knowledge in this field and summarizes the data obtained from all the studies that applied proteomics to the investigations of crystal–cell interactions that subsequently led to functional studies to address the significant impact or functional roles of the expression proteomics data in the pathogenesis of kidney stone disease.

We report herein cellular proteome datasets of EA.hy926 human endothelial cells under physiologic condition and after treatment with 100 μM caffeine or EGCG for 24-h. Cellular proteins were extracted and subjected to in-solution tryptic digestion using filter-aided sample preparation (FASP) method. The digested peptides were analyzed by nanoflow liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (nanoLC-ESI-Qq-TOF MS/MS). Finally, the mass spectral data were searched against the human Swiss-Prot database using Mascot 2.4 search engine and quantified using Skyline v.3.5 software and BiblioSpec algorithm. All of these data were used for further comparative proteomics study followed by bioinformatics analyses to investigate differential biochemical effects of caffeine and EGCG on human endothelial cells (Chanthick et al., 2019) [1].

Oxidative Stress-Induced HMGB1 Release from Melanocytes: A Paracrine Mechanism Underlying the Cutaneous Inflammation in Vitiligo. J Invest Dermatol 2019; 139:2174-2184.e4.

Abstract
Vitiligo is a cutaneous depigmentation disorder caused by the destruction of epidermal melanocytes. The generation and the skin infiltration of autoreactive CD8+ cytotoxic T cells triggered by oxidative stress play a critical role in vitiligo. High-mobility group protein B1 (HMGB1) is a classic damage-associated molecular pattern molecule with strong proinflammatory effects in inflammatory reactions. A previous study reported an enhanced expression of HMGB1 in vitiligo lesions, but the role of HMGB1 in cutaneous inflammation of vitiligo is still unknown. In the present study, we initially found that HMGB1 was released from the nucleus of melanocytes in vitiligo perilesional skin. Furthermore, cultured normal human melanocytes could release HMGB1 under treatment with hydrogen peroxide. Moreover, HMGB1 facilitated the secretion of CXCL16 and IL-8 from keratinocytes by binding to the receptor for advanced glycation end products and activating NF-κB and extracellular signal-regulated kinase signaling pathways. Subsequently, HMGB1 led to the formation of chemotaxis for the migration of CD8+ T cells from patients with vitiligo by increasing the release of CXCL16 from keratinocytes. Additionally, HMGB1 promoted the maturation of dendritic cells from patients with vitiligo. Altogether, our study demonstrates that HMGB1 released from melanocytes contributes to the formation of oxidative stress-induced autoimmunity in vitiligo.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are released to maintain cellular homeostasis as well as to mediate cell communication by spreading protective or injury signals to neighbour or remote cells. In kidney, increasing evidence support that EVs are signalling vesicles for different segments of tubules, intra‐glomerular, glomerular‐tubule and tubule‐interstitial communication. EVs released by kidney resident and infiltrating cells can be isolated from urine and were found to be promising biomarkers for kidney disease, reflecting deterioration of renal function and histological change. We have here summarized the recent progress about the functional role of EVs in kidney disease as well as challenges and future directions involved.

Abstract
The terms microparticles (MPs) and microvesicles (MVs) refer to large extracellular vesicles (EVs) generated from a broad spectrum of cells upon its activation or death by apoptosis. The unique surface antigens of MPs/MVs allow for the identification of their cellular origin as well as its functional characterization. Two basic aspects of MP/MV functions in physiology and pathological conditions are widely considered. Firstly, it has become evident that large EVs have strong procoagulant properties. Secondly, experimental and clinical studies have shown that MPs/MVs play a crucial role in the pathophysiology of inflammation-associated disorders. A cardinal feature of these disorders is an enhanced generation of platelets-, endothelial-, and leukocyte-derived EVs. Nevertheless, anti-inflammatory effects of miscellaneous EV types have also been described, which provided important new insights into the large EV-inflammation axis. Advances in understanding the biology of MPs/MVs have led to the preparation of this review article aimed at discussing the association between large EVs and inflammation, depending on their cellular origin.
