Lipid-Associated Macrophage Polarization Drives Chronic Xenograft Fibrosis via APOE-SDC2 Signaling

Listed in NCBI GEO

Chronic injury of xenografted kidneys, characterized by interstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy, remains a critical barrier to clinical translation.

Description

We employed integrated single-nucleus RNA sequencing, spatial transcriptomics, and plasma proteomics on pig-to-cynomolgus monkey kidney xenografts. We identified lipid-associated macrophage polarization and macrophage-fibroblast crosstalk via APOE-SDC2 signaling as central mechanisms driving fibrosis.

Combined immunosuppression suppressed this pathway and prevented injury progression.
