TitleRNA-seq analysis of dickkopf-3 knockout and C57Bl/6 mice kidneys 7 days after unilateral ureteral obstruction
DescriptionRenal tubular atrophy and interstitial fibrosis are common hallmarks of etiologically different progressive chronic kidney diseases (CKD) that eventually result in organ failure. We identify Dickkopf-3 (Dkk3) as a stress-induced, tubular epithelia-derived mediator of kidney fibrosis. Genetic as well as antibody-mediated abrogation of Dkk3 led to reduced tubular atrophy and decreased interstitial matrix accumulation in two mouse models of renal fibrosis. This was accompanied by an amplified, anti-fibrogenic, inflammatory response within the injured kidney. Mechanistically, Dkk3 deficiency led to diminished canonical Wnt/-catenin signaling in stressed tubular epithelial cells. To identify global changes in gene expression due to the lack of Dkk3, whole-transcriptome sequencing (mRNA-seq) was performed on RNA isolated from kidneys of Wt and Dkk3-/- mice 7 days after UUO.
