Podocyte injury is important in development of diabetic nephropathy (DN). Although several studies have reported single cell-based RNA-seq of podocytes in type 1 DN (T1DN), the podocyte translating mRNA profile in type 2 DN (T2DN) <u>has not been previously compared</u> to that of T1DN. <u>We</u> analyzed the podocyte translatome in T2DN in podocin-Cre; Rosa26<sup>fsTRAP</sup>; eNOS-/-; <i>db/db </i>mice and compared it to streptozotocin-induced T1DN in podocin-Cre; Rosa26<sup>fsTRAP</sup>; eNOS-/- mice utilizing Translating Ribosome Affinity Purification (TRAP) and RNA-seq. Over 125 genes were highly enriched in the podocyte ribosome. More podocyte TRAP genes were differentially expressed in T2DN compared to T1DN. TGF-β signaling pathway genes were upregulated while MAPK pathway genes were downregulated only in T2DN while ATP binding and cAMP-mediated signaling genes were downregulated only in T1DN. Genes regulating actin filament organization and apoptosis increased while genes regulating VEGFR signaling and glomerular basement membrane components decreased in both type 1 and type 2 diabetic podocytes. A number diabetes-induced genes not previously been linked to podocyte injury <u>were confirmed in both</u> <u>mouse and human DN</u>. Differences and similarities in the podocyte translatome in T2DN and T1DN can identify factors underlying the pathophysiology of DN and novel therapeutic targets to treat diabetes-induced podocyte injury.

Hyperglycemia promotes oxidative stress and hence generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which is known to play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy. Metformin, an oral hypoglycemic drug, possesses antioxidant effects. The aim of this paper is to investigate the protective effects of metformin on the injury of renal podocytes in spontaneously diabetic Torii (SDT) rats, a new model for nonobese type 2 diabetes. Metformin (350 mg/kg/day) was given to SDT rats for 17 weeks. Blood glucose, glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c), and albuminuria were examined. Kidney histopathology, renal 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) levels and apoptosis were examined. In 43-week-old SDT rats, severe hyperglycemia was developed, and albuminuria was markedly increased. Diabetes induced significant alterations in renal glomerular structure. In addition, urinary and renal 8-OHdG levels were highly increased, and podocyte loss was shown through application of the TUNEL and synaptopodin staining. However, treatment of SDT rats with metformin restored all these renal changes. Our data suggested that diabetes-induced podocyte loss in diabetic nephropathy could be suppressed by the antidiabetes drug, metformin, through the repression of oxidative injury.

Hypertension is now recognized as a key contributory factor to the development and progression of kidney disease in both type 1 and type 2 diabetes. The renin angiotensin system (RAS) and its effector molecule angiotensin II, in particular, have a range of hemodynamic and nonhemodynamic effects that contribute not only to the development of hypertension, but also to renal disease. As a result, therapeutic inhibition of the RAS with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and/or selective angiotensin II type 1 receptor blockers has been proposed as a key strategy for reducing kidney damage beyond the expected effects one would observe with blood pressure reduction per se. Although the relationship between the RAS and the progression of diabetic renal disease has been known for many decades, recent advances have revealed a more complex paradigm with the discovery of a number of new components. Thus, further understanding of these new components of the renin angiotensin aldosterone system (RAAS), such as the angiotensin type 2 receptor subtype, angiotensin converting enzyme 2, and the recently cloned renin receptor, is likely to have therapeutic implications for disorders such as diabetic nephropathy, where interruption of the RAAS is widely used.

Diabetic nephropathy is a major complication in diabetes and a leading cause of end-stage renal failure. Glomerular podocytes are functionally and structurally injured early in diabetic nephropathy. A non-obese type 2 diabetes model, the spontaneously diabetic Torii (SDT) rat, is of increasing preclinical interest because of its pathophysiological similarities to human type 2 diabetic complications including diabetic nephropathy. However, podocyte injury in SDT rat glomeruli and the effect of angiotensin II receptor blocker treatment in the early stage have not been reported in detail. Therefore, we have evaluated early stages of glomerular podocyte damage and the beneficial effect of early treatment with losartan in SDT rats using desmin as a sensitive podocyte injury marker. Moreover, we have developed an automated, computational glomerulus recognition method and illustrated its specific application for quantitatively studying glomerular desmin immunoreactivity. This state-of-the-art method enabled automatic recognition and quantification of glomerular desmin-positive areas, eliminating the need to laboriously trace glomerulus borders by hand. The image analysis method not only enabled assessment of a large number of glomeruli, but also clearly demonstrated that glomerular injury was more severe in the juxtamedullary region than in the superficial cortex region. This applied not only in SDT rat diabetic nephropathy but also in puromycin aminonucleoside-induced nephropathy, which was also studied. The proposed glomerulus image analysis method combined with desmin immunohistochemistry should facilitate evaluations in preclinical drug efficacy studies as well as elucidation of the pathophysiology of diabetic nephropathy.

In podocytes, PA rapidly induced immunoproteasome expression but ultimately decreased it, while OA and EPA restored the decreased immunoproteasome levels. In the renal cortex of type 2 diabetic mice, immunoproteasome expression was significantly decreased, whereas feeding of OA-rich olive oil or EPA-rich fish oil diets protected them against the reduced immunoproteasome expression and progression of diabetic nephropathy. Thus, lipotoxicity-induced podocyte injury with impaired immunoproteasome expression may be related to the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy.
