<a>Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSC) facilitate repair in experimental diabetic kidney disease (DKD). However, the hyperglycemic and uremic milieu may diminish regenerative capacity of patient-derived therapy. We hypothesized that DKD reduces human MSC paracrine function. Adipose-derived MSC from 38 DKD participants and 16 controls were assessed for cell surface markers, tri-lineage differentiation, RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq), <i>in vitro</i> function (co-culture or conditioned medium experiments with T cells and human kidney cells [HK-2]), secretome profile, and cellular senescence abundance. The direction of association between MSC function and patient characteristics were also tested. RNA-seq analysis identified 353 differentially expressed genes and downregulation of several immunomodulatory genes/pathways in DKD- <i>vs</i>. Control-MSC. DKD-MSC phenotype, differentiation, and tube formation capacity were preserved but migration was reduced. DKD-MSC with and without interferon-γ priming inhibited T-cell proliferation greater than Control-MSC. DKD-MSC-medium contained higher levels of anti-inflammatory cytokines (indoleamine 2,3-deoxygenase-1 and prostaglandin-E2) and pro-repair factors (hepatocyte growth factor and stromal cell-derived factor-1) but lower Interleukin-6 vs. Control-MSC-medium. DKD-MSC-medium protected high glucose plus transforming growth factor-β-exposed HK-2 cells by reducing apoptotic, fibrotic and inflammatory marker expression. Few DKD-MSC functions were affected by patient characteristics including age, gender, body mass index, hemoglobin A1c, kidney function or urine albumin excretion. However, senescence-associated-β-galactosidase activity was lower in DKD-MSC from participants on metformin therapy. Therefore, while </a><a>DKD altered the transcriptome and migratory function of culture-expanded MSC, DKD-MSC functionality, trophic factor secretion and immunomodulatory activities contributing to repair remained intact. </a>These observations support testing patient-derived MSC therapy and may inform preconditioning regimens in DKD clinical trials.

AbstractLysosomes are organelles involved in cell metabolism, waste degradation, and cellular material circulation. They play a key role in the maintenance of cellular physiological homeostasis. Compared with the lysosomal content of other organs, that of the kidney is abundant, and lysosomal abnormalities are associated with the occurrence and development of certain renal diseases. Lysosomal structure and function in intrinsic renal cells are impaired in diabetic kidney disease (DKD). Promoting lysosomal biosynthesis and/or restoring lysosomal function can repair damaged podocytes and proximal tubular epithelial cells, and delay the progression of DKD. Lysosomal homeostasis maintenance may be advantageous in alleviating DKD. Here, we systematically reviewed the latest advances in the relationship between lysosomal dyshomeostasis and progression of DKD based on recent literature to further elucidate the mechanism of renal injury in diabetes mellitus and to highlight the application potential of lysosomal homeostasis maintenance as a new prevention and treatment strategy for DKD. However, research on screening effective interventions for lysosomal dyshomeostasis is still in its infancy, and thus should be the focus of future research studies. The screening out of cell-specific lysosomal function regulation targets according to the different stages of DKD, so as to realize the controllable targeted regulation of cell lysosomal function during DKD, is the key to the successful clinical development of this therapeutic strategy.
