Description
The glomerular filtration barrier prevents large serum proteins from being lost into the urine. It is not known, however, why the filter does not routinely clog with large proteins that enter the glomerular basement membrane (GBM). Here we provide evidence that an active transport mechanism exists to remove immunoglobulins that accumulate at the filtration barrier. We found that FcRn, an IgG and albumin transport receptor, is expressed in podocytes and functions to internalize IgG from the GBM. Mice lacking FcRn accumulated IgG in the GBM as they aged and tracer studies showed delayed clearance of IgG from the kidneys of FcRn deficient mice. Supporting a role for this pathway in disease, saturating the clearance mechanism potentiated the pathogenicity of nephrotoxic sera. These studies support the idea that podocytes play an active role in removing proteins from the GBM and suggest that genetic or acquired impairment of the clearance machinery is likely to be a common mechanism promoting glomerular diseases.

Description
A comparative analysis of gene expression of CD4+ EGFP+ Nrp1+ (tTreg, thymus-derived Treg), CD4+ EGFP+ Nrp1- (pTreg, peripherally-derived Treg) and CD4+ EGFP- (Tconv, conventional T cell) in CD28-/- Foxp3EGFP and Foxp3EGFP mice. Overall design: Nrp1+ Treg (tTreg), Nrp1- Treg (pTreg) and Tconv were sorted from Foxp3EGFP and CD28-/-Foxp3EGFP mice. Total RNAs were extracted from whole samples and analyzed by RNA-seq.

Description
We generated primary cultures from renal cell carcinoma and matched normal primary kidney cortex tubule cell cultures from 3 patients. Early passage cultures of these two cell types were subjected to chromatin accessibility profiling (DNase-seq) and gene expression profiling (RNA-seq). Studying these paired and patient-matched controlled data sets will shed light on the epigenomic changes that underlie transformation of kidney tubules into malignant cancers. Overall design: Paired DNase-seq and RNA-seq data sets from 2 different primary human kidney cell types (normal and cancer) Note from submitter: The HIM23 samples have a more narrow consent and their raw data will be submitted to dbGaP.

- Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0 ST Array (mogene10st)
Description
The oviducts play a critical role in gamete and embryo transport, as well as supporting fertilization and early embryo development. Progesterone receptor (PGR) is a transcription factor highly expressed in oviductal cells, while its activating ligand, progesterone (P4), surges to peak levels as ovulation approaches. P4 is known to regulate oviduct cilia beating and muscular contractions in vitro, but how PGR may mediate this in vivo is poorly understood. We used PGR-knockout (PRKO) mice to determine how PGR regulates oviductal function during the periovulatory period, in particular oviductal transport and embryo support.

Description
Ovulation requires sequential molecular events and structural remodeling in the ovarian follicle for the successful release of a mature oocyte capable of being fertilised. Critical to this process is progesterone receptor (PGR), a transcription factor highly yet transiently expressed in granulosa cells of preovulatory follicles. Progesterone receptor knockout (PRKO) mice are anovulatory, with a specific and complete defect in follicle rupture. Therefore, this model was used to examine the critical molecular and biochemical mechanisms necessary for successful ovulation.

Description
About 10% of Down syndrome (DS) infants are born with a myeloproliferative disorder (DS-TMD) that spontaneously resolves within the first few months of life. About 20-30% of these infants subsequently develop acute megakaryoblastic leukemia (DS-AMKL). In order to understand differences that may exist between fetal and bone marrow megakaryocyte progenitor cell populations we flow sorted megakaryocyte progenitor cells and performed microarray expression analysis.
