    Abstract The establishment of the left-right asymmetry in vertebrate animals is orchestrated by a series of tightly regulated events. In this issue of Developmental Cell, Tanaka et al. provide a tantalizing model to show how fluid flow in the mouse ventral node becomes integrated in a molecular cellular signature of asymmetry.

    Abstract Podocytes undergo defined morphologic changes during development, homeostasis, and aging, and on injury. Quantitative podometric assessments of podocyte endowment provide a powerful tool to interrogate glomerular health. Expanding this approach to a regional assessment demonstrates that the podocytes from cortical, subcortical, and juxtamedullary glomeruli are not only morphologically heterogeneous per se, but respond differently to stressors, such as age and hypertension. This suggests that zonal glomerular changes harbor critical information to understand glomerulopathies.

    Abstract Regenerative repair following injury to proximal tubular epithelial cells (PTECs) is essential to restore the kidney to normal function in acute kidney injury. Failure to accomplish this leads to chronic kidney disease. Expression of the paired-box transcription factor Pax2 in PTECs is required for their regenerative proliferation and repair. However, a loss-of-function study now shows that the absence of Pax2 not only impacts PTEC proliferation but also causes myofibroblast recruitment leading to excessive tubulointerstitial fibrosis.

    Abstract The majority of podocyte disorders are progressive in nature leading to chronic kidney disease and often kidney failure. The scope of current therapies is typically nonspecific immunosuppressant medications, which are accompanied by unwanted and serious side effects. However, many exciting clinical trials are underway to reduce the burden of podocyte diseases in our patients. Major advances and discoveries have recently been made experimentally in our understanding of the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying podocyte injury in disease. This begs the question of how best to take advantage of these impressive strides. One approach to consider is the repurposing of therapeutics that have already been approved by the Food and Drug Administration, European Medicines Agency, and other regulatory agencies for indications beyond the kidney. The advantages of therapy repurposing include known safety profiles, drug development that has already been completed, and overall reduced costs for studying alternative indications for selected therapies. The purpose of this mini review is to examine the experimental literature of podocyte damage and determine if there are mechanistic targets in which prior approved therapies can be considered for repurposing to podocyte disorders.

    Abstract As the population in many industrial countries is aging, the risk, incidence, and prevalence of CKD increases. In the kidney, advancing age results in a progressive decrease in nephron number and an increase in glomerulosclerosis. In this review, we focus on the effect of aging on glomerular podocytes, the post-mitotic epithelial cells critical for the normal integrity and function of the glomerular filtration barrier. The podocytes undergo senescence and transition to a senescence-associated secretory phenotype typified by the production and secretion of inflammatory cytokines that can influence neighboring glomerular cells by paracrine signaling. In addition to senescence, the aging podocyte phenotype is characterized by ultrastructural and functional changes; hypertrophy; cellular, oxidative, and endoplasmic reticulum stress; reduced autophagy; and increased expression of aging genes. This results in a reduced podocyte health span and a shortened life span. Importantly, these changes in the pathways/processes characteristic of healthy podocyte aging are also often similar to pathways in the disease-induced injured podocyte. Finally, the better understanding of podocyte aging and senescence opens therapeutic options to slow the rate of podocyte aging and promote kidney health.

    Abstract Patients with hypertension or obesity can develop glomerular dysfunction characterized by injury and depletion of podocytes. To better understand the molecular processes involved, young mice were treated with either deoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA) or fed a high-fat diet (HFD) to induce hypertension or obesity, respectively. The transcriptional changes associated with these phenotypes were measured by unbiased bulk mRNA sequencing of isolated podocytes from experimental models and their respective controls. Key findings were validated by immunostaining. In addition to a decrease in canonical proteins and reduced podocyte number, podocytes from both hypertensive and obese mice exhibited a sterile inflammatory phenotype characterized by increases in NLR family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome, protein cell death-1, and Toll-like receptor pathways. Finally, although the mice were young, podocytes in both models exhibited increased expression of senescence and aging genes, including genes consistent with a senescence-associated secretory phenotype. However, there were differences between the hypertension- and obesity-associated senescence phenotypes. Both show stress-induced podocyte senescence characterized by increased

    Abstract The effects of healthy aging on the kidney, and how these effects intersect with superimposed diseases, are highly relevant in the context of the population's increasing longevity. Age-associated changes to podocytes, which are terminally differentiated glomerular epithelial cells, adversely affect kidney health. This review discusses the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying podocyte aging, how these mechanisms might be augmented by disease in the aged kidney, and approaches to mitigate progressive damage to podocytes. Furthermore, we address how biologic pathways such as those associated with cellular growth confound aging in humans and rodents.
