Abstract
Kidney organoids are a promising model to study kidney disease, but their use is constrained by limited knowledge of their functional protein expression profile. Here, we define the organoid proteome and transcriptome trajectories over culture duration and upon exposure to TNFα, a cytokine stressor. Older organoids increase deposition of extracellular matrix but decrease expression of glomerular proteins. Single cell transcriptome integration reveals that most proteome changes localize to podocytes, tubular and stromal cells. TNFα treatment of organoids results in 322 differentially expressed proteins, including cytokines and complement components. Transcript expression of these 322 proteins is significantly higher in individuals with poorer clinical outcomes in proteinuric kidney disease. Key TNFα-associated protein (C3 and VCAM1) expression is increased in both human tubular and organoid kidney cell populations, highlighting the potential for organoids to advance biomarker development. By integrating kidney organoid omic layers, incorporating a disease-relevant cytokine stressor and comparing with human data, we provide crucial evidence for the functional relevance of the kidney organoid model to human kidney disease.

Abstract
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS
Kidney organoids are a valuable and innovative model to understand genetic diseases, kidney development and transcriptomic dynamics. However, their proteome has not been analyzed so far. It is unclear how their proteome changes during differentiation, and if more complex disease processes such as inflammatory tissue responses could be modelled with this approach.
METHOD
Here, we used proteomics to compare organoids with existing model systems such as native glomeruli and cultured cells. We characterize the trajectory of organoid differentiation and delineate innate immune responses in organoids to expand its scope as a model system in nephrology. We also compared our proteomics with bulk and single cell transcriptomic data.
RESULTS
Genes involved in podocytopathies and cystic kidney diseases were abundantly expressed on protein level, distinguishing organoids from almost every available cell culture model. On their pathway to terminal differentiation, organoids developed increased deposition of extracellular matrix. Single cell transcriptomic analysis suggests that most changes locate to podocytes and early podocyte progenitors. This matrix deposition is different from commonly used animal models of glomerular disease. A novel signaling system discovered was the TNFα system, a system also available in podocytes. Incubation of organoids with high concentrations of TNFα led to an activation of NF-kB signaling, and secretion of cytokines and complement components, alongside with extracellular matrix components.
CONCLUSION
Interestingly, this signaling system directly links inflammatory signaling, production of cytokines and complement, and production of extracellular matrix. Thus, we provide a repository of human kidney organoid proteins that revealed the potential to model pathophysiological pathways beyond genetic diseases.
