Kidney involvement is a common and severe complication of ANCA AAV which is observed in a considerable subset of patients, mainly affecting glomeruli. However, tubulointerstitial lesions have also been described in ANCA glomerulonephritis (GN). Therefore, we aim to describe active and chronic tubulointerstitial lesions in ANCA GN subtypes by systematic scoring analogous to the Banff scoring system while also utilizing clinical and laboratory findings. Methods: A total of 49 kidney biopsies with ANCA GN were retrospectively included in a single-center cohort study between 2015–2020. Results: We report that MPO-ANCA GN is associated with more severe deterioration of kidney function independent of systemic markers of AAV disease activity, and is also associated with increased proteinuria in MPO-ANCA GN and a decreased fraction of normal glomeruli. Finally, MPO-ANCA GN showed distinct, active, and chronic tubulointerstitial lesions. Conclusion: New insights into the pathophysiology of both entities, as well as differences in the clinical presentation of MPO- versus PR3-ANCA GN, could potentially pave the way for more precise treatment regimens. Therefore, it is important to understand the differences in histopathological presentation, especially in yet underestimated active tubulointerstitial lesions of ANCA GN subtypes.

Aberrant promoter CpG island methylation and subsequent transcriptional silencing of specific genes have emerged as contributors to progression of chronic kidney disease. Here, we report that transcriptional silencing of the Ras-GTP suppressor RASAL1 contributes causally to progression of kidney fibrosis and we identified that circulating methylated RASAL1 promoter DNA fragments in peripheral blood correspond with levels of intrarenal levels of RASAL1 promoter methylation and degree of fibrosis in kidney biopsies, enabling non-invasive longitudinal analysis of intrarenal CpG island methylation. Retrospective analysis of patients with hypertensive nephrosclerosis revealed that circulating methylated RASAL1 promoter DNA fragments in peripheral blood decrease with Dihydralazine treatment in patients with hypertensive nephrosclerosis, and provided evidence that low-dose Dihydralazine delays decline of excretory kidney function, whereas Dihydralazine at standard doses had no protective effect. We demonstrate that the protective effect of Dihydralazine is due to induction of endogenous Tet3/Tdg-mediated DNA-de-methylation activity reversing aberrant promoter CpG island methylation, while HIF1α induction at standard doses counterbalances its protective activity. We conclude that RASAL1 promoter methylation is a therapeutic target and a biomarker of renal fibrosis.

It is well established that AAV patients feature an increased risk of developing thrombotic events, and platelets are activated in AAV patients being triggered by the alternative complement pathway. Platelets guard vessels integrity and initiate thrombus formation in response to endothelial damage, further constituting a triangular interconnection with the activation of neutrophils and the complement system. We here aimed to systematically assess the relevance of platelet counts and systemic complement system activation regarding distinct histopathological lesions in ANCA-associated renal vasculitis.\r\n \r\n \r\n Methods\r\n A cohort of 53 biopsy-proven cases of ANCA-associated renal vasculitis were retrospectively enrolled in a single-center observational study. Univariate and multivariate regression analysis was performed to identify parameters associated with platelet counts in ANCA-associated renal vasculitis compared to disease controls. Finally, the relevance of platelets for disease course and recovery was assessed by survival analysis.\r\n \r\n \r\n Results\r\n \r\n Lower platelet counts correlated with markers of kidney injury including eGFR loss (\r\n p=0.0004\r\n ) and lower complement C3 levels (\r\n p=0.0037\r\n ). Multivariate and subgroup analysis revealed that this association was only present in the subgroup with MPO-ANCA seropositivity (eGFR loss:\r\n p=0.0009\r\n , lower C3:\r\n p=0.0032\r\n ). While lower platelet counts correlated with kidney injury in the PR3-ANCA subgroup (eGFR loss:\r\n p=0.0272\r\n ), we did not observe an independent association with complement C3 levels (\r\n p=0.4497\r\n ). Independent of any glomerular lesion, lower platelet counts correlated with interstitial fibrosis (\r\n p=0.0313\r\n ), tubular atrophy (\r\n p=0.0073\r\n ), and tubulitis in areas of interstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy (\r\n p=0.0033\r\n ). Finally, we observed significant differences with increased requirement of kidney replacement therapy (KRT) or death in the subgroup below median platelet counts (HR: 4.1, 95% CI: 1.6-10,\r\n p=0.0047\r\n ), associated with a lower probability of discharge and prolonged hospitalization in this subgroup (HR: 0.5, 95% CI: 0.3-0.9,\r\n p=0.0113\r\n ).\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n Conclusion\r\n Based on our observation that an association between platelets and complement system activation is only observed in the MPO-ANCA subgroup, this could implicate that platelets and complement C3 link innate immunity to tubulointerstitial injury in the presence of MPO-ANCA autoantibodies."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.3389/fimmu.2022.1054457"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/118191"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","DOI-Import GROB-621"],["dc.relation.eissn","1664-3224"],["dc.rights","CC BY 4.0"],["dc.rights.uri","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/"],["dc.title","Implication of platelets and complement C3 as link between innate immunity and tubulointerstitial injury in renal vasculitis with MPO-ANCA seropositivity"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

We examined 20 adult cases with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection requiring ICU supportive care in a single-center prospective observational study and investigated whether urinary markers for viral infection (SARS-CoV-2 N) and shedded cellular membrane proteins (ACE2, TMPRSS2) allow identification of patients at risk for AKI and outcome of COVID-19. Objectives: The objective of the study was to evaluate whether urinary markers for viral infection (SARS-CoV-2 N) and shedded cellular membrane proteins (ACE2, TMPRSS2) allow identification of patients at risk for AKI and outcome of COVID-19. Results: Urinary SARS-CoV-2 N measured at ICU admission identified patients at risk for AKI in COVID-19 (HR 5.9, 95% CI 1.4–26, p = 0.0095 ). In addition, the combination of urinary SARS-CoV-2 N and plasma albumin measurements further improved the association with AKI (HR 11.4, 95% CI 2.7–48, p = 0.0016 ).

There is recent evidence that the degree of proteinuria at diagnosis is associated with long-term renal outcome in ANCA GN. Therefore, we here aimed to systematically describe the association between proteinuria and clinicopathological characteristics in 53 renal biopsies with ANCA GN and corresponding urinary samples at admission. Methods: A total number of 53 urinary samples at admission and corresponding renal biopsies with confirmed renal involvement of AAV were retrospectively included from 2015 to 2021 in a single-center study. Results: Proteinuria correlated with myeloperoxidase (MPO) subtype, diagnosis of microscopic polyangiitis (MPA) and severe deterioration of kidney function. Proteinuria was most prominent in sclerotic class ANCA GN and ANCA renal risk score (ARRS) high risk attributed to nonselective proteinuria, including both glomerular and tubular proteinuria. Finally, there was no association between proteinuria and systemic disease activity, suggesting that proteinuria reflected specific renal involvement in AAV rather that systemic disease activity. Conclusions: In conclusion, proteinuria correlated with distinct clinicopathological characteristics in ANCA GN, mostly attributed to a reduced fraction of normal glomeruli. Furthermore, proteinuria in ANCA GN reflected specific renal involvement in AAV rather than systemic disease activity. Therefore, urinary findings could further improve our understanding of mechanisms promoting kidney injury and progression of ANCA GN."],["dc.description.sponsorship","Research program, University Medical Center, University of Göttingen"],["dc.identifier.doi","10.3390/jcm10071538"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/85303"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","DOI-Import GROB-425"],["dc.publisher","MDPI"],["dc.relation.eissn","2077-0383"],["dc.rights","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/"],["dc.title","Proteinuria Indicates Decreased Normal Glomeruli in ANCA-Associated Glomerulonephritis Independent of Systemic Disease Activity"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

SSc-associated fibrosis potentially results from mesenchymal transdifferentiation of endothelial cells. Early Endothelial Progenitor Cells (eEPCs) act proangiogenic under diverse conditions. Aim of the study was to analyze eEPC regeneration and mesenchymal transdifferentiation in patients with limited and diffuse SSs (lSSc and dSSc). Methods: Patients with both, lSSc and dSSc were included into the study. The following parameters were evaluated: eEPC numbers and regeneration, concentrations of vasomodulatory mediators, mesenchymal properties of blood-derived eEPC. Serum samples of healthy subjects and SS patients were used for stimulation of cultured human eEPC, subsequently followed by analysis of mesenchymal cell characteristics and mobility. Results: Twenty-nine patients were included into the study. Regenerative activity of blood-derived eEPCs did not differ between Controls and patients. Circulating eEPC were significantly lower in all patients with SSc, and in limited and diffuse SSc (lSSc/dSSc). Serum concentrations of promesenchymal TGF-b was elevated in all patients with SSc. Cultured mononuclear cells from SS patients displayed higher abundances of CD31 and of CD31 and aSMA combined. Finally, serum from SSc patients inhibited migration of cultured eEPCs and the cells showed lower sensitivity towards the endothelin antagonist Bosentan. Conclusions: The eEPC system, which represents an essential element of the endogenous vascular repair machinery is affected in SSc. The increased appearance of mesenchymal properties in eEPC may indicate that alterations of the cells potentially contribute to the accumulation of connective tissue and to vascular malfunction."],["dc.description.sponsorship","Heidenreich von-Siebold Programm"],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1186/s12891-016-1197-2"],["dc.identifier.isi","000395017600003"],["dc.identifier.pmid","27519706"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/13866"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/39808"],["dc.notes.intern","Merged from goescholar"],["dc.notes.status","zu prüfen"],["dc.notes.submitter","Najko"],["dc.publisher","Biomed Central Ltd"],["dc.relation.issn","1471-2474"],["dc.rights","CC BY 4.0"],["dc.rights.uri","https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0"],["dc.title","Early Endothelial Progenitor Cells (eEPCs) in systemic sclerosis (SSc) - dynamics of cellular regeneration and mesenchymal transdifferentiation"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","yes"],["dc.type.status","published"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]
