Kidney Organoids treated with TNFa at 5 ng/mL and 50ng/mL for 24h and 48h

This dataset serves as comparison for PXD029718 using a different organoid differentiation protocol – as requested by reviewers. Kidney organoids are a promising model to study kidney disease, but use is constrained by limited knowledge of their functional protein expression profile. We aimed to define the organoid proteome and transcriptome trajectories over culture duration and upon exposure to TNFα, a cytokine stressor. Older organoids increased deposition of extracellular matrix but decreased expression of glomerular proteins. Single cell transcriptome integration revealed that most proteome changes localized to podocytes, tubular and stromal cells. TNFα-treatment of organoids effected 320 differentially expressed proteins, including cytokines and complement components. Transcript expression of these 320 proteins was significantly higher in individuals with poorer clinical outcomes in proteinuric kidney disease. Key TNFα-associated protein (C3 and VCAM1) expression was increased in both human tubular and organoid kidney cell populations, highlighting the potential for organoids to advance biomarker development. By integrating kidney organoid omic layers, incorporating a disease-relevant cytokine stressor and comparing to human data, we provide crucial evidence of functional relevance of the kidney organoid model to human kidney disease.
