The aim of the present study was to characterize ET system by combining single cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data with immunolocalization in human and rodent kidneys of both sexes. Using publicly available scRNA-seq data, we assessed sex and kidney disease status (human), age and sex (rats), and diurnal expression (mice) on the kidney ET system expression. In normal human biopsies of both sexes and in rodent kidney samples, the endothelin-converting enzyme-1 (ECE1) and ET-1 were prominent in the glomeruli and endothelium. These data agreed with the scRNA-seq data from these three species, with ECE1/Ece1 mRNA enriched in the endothelium. However, the EDN1/Edn1 gene (encodes ET-1) was rarely detected, even though it was immunolocalized within the kidneys, and plasma and urinary ET-1 excretion are easily measured. Within each species, there were some sex-specific differences. For example, in kidney biopsies from living donors, men had a greater glomerular endothelial cell endothelin receptor B (Ednrb) compared with women. In mice, females had greater kidney endothelial cell Ednrb than male mice.

In non-diabetic mice, which show full neurological recovery after stroke, we observed a reduction of isovalerate, and an increase of kynurenate, uridine monophosphate, gluconate and N6-acetyllysine in tMCAO relative to sham mice. In contrast, in mice with T2D, which show impaired stroke recovery, there was a reduction of N,N-dimethylglycine, succinate and proline, and an increase of 2-oxocaproate in serum of tMCAO versus sham mice.
