The nuclear factor of activated T cells 5 (NFAT5) contributes to the renal corticomedullary differences in gene expression

Abstract: The corticomedullary osmotic gradient between renal cortex and medulla induces a specific spatial gene expression pattern. The factors that controls these differences are not fully addressed. Adaptation to hypertonic environment is mediated by the actions of the nuclear factor of activated T-cells 5 (NFAT5). NFAT5 induces the expression of genes that lead to intracellular accumulation of organic osmolytes. However, a systematical analysis of the NFAT5-dependent gene expression in the kidneys was missing. We us… Show more

“…The factors that control these changes are not fully understood. There is plenty of evidence that the unique hypertonic environment in the renal inner medulla mediates a specific gene expression pattern 12, 29, 52 31 . With this study, we provide evidences that the differences in the chromatin accessibility contribute to the observed changes.…”

“…Surprisingly the analysis of TF motifs did not show a significant enrichment of NFAT5 motifs in the IM for DAR regions. Loss of NFAT5 in the induced a diabetes insipidus like phenotype and this was associated with massive changes in gene expression 29, 32 . The changes in gene expression are also associated with differences in chromatin accessibility.…”
