Histopathological analysis of renal cystic epithelia in thePkd2WS25/-mouse model of ADPKD

Abstract: It has been proposed that autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD)affected renal epithelial cells undergo a phenotypic transition from a highly differentiated absorptive state to a much less differentiated secretory state during cystogenesis and that this transition is accompanied by loss of epithelial cell polarity and mistargeting of specific membrane proteins. We conducted a detailed evaluation of this hypothesis in the Pkd2WS25/- mouse model of ADPKD. Ultrastructural analysis of Pkd2WS25/- cyst… Show more

“…It follows that polycystic kidney disease can result from defective ciliogenesis or from loss of discrete cilial proteins in otherwise apparently structurally normal cilia. Human ADPKD falls into the latter category (Thomson et al, 2003).…”

“…Most flat cyst epithelial cells are negative for nephron segment markers and Na-K ATPase (45), suggesting that the morphological transition of Pkd1 -/-cyst epithelial cells is accompanied by loss of functional phenotype. However, expression of renal tubular markers within single cysts in Pkd1 -/-/LZ + kidneys was discontinuous.…”

“…Oocytes were fixed for 1 h in a solution containing 1% paraformaldehyde in 100 mM sodium phosphate, pH 7.4, and subsequently placed in holding buffer (100 mM phosphate with azide, 0.5% paraformaldehyde). Immunocytochemistry was then performed after tissue embedding and antigen retrieval as described previously (32). In brief, oocytes were embedded in Embed 812, cut into 1-m sections, etched for 5 min in a solution containing KOH (2 g), methanol (10 ml), and propylene oxide (5 ml), washed in methanol, and subjected to microwave antigen retrieval in citrate buffer (10 mM, pH 6.0).…”
