Project description:Retinal ganglion cell (RGC) death is the final consequence of many blinding diseases, where there is considerable variation in the time course and severity of RGC loss. Indeed, this process appears to be influenced by a wide variety of genetic and environmental factors. In this study we explored the genetic basis for differences in ganglion cell death in two inbred strains of mice. We found that RGCs are more susceptible to death following optic nerve crush in C57BL/6J mice (54% survival) than in DBA2/J mice (62% survival). Using the Illumina Mouse-6 microarray, we identified 1,580 genes with significant change in expression following optic nerve crush in these two strains of mice. Our analysis of the changes occurring after optic nerve crush demonstrated that the greatest amount of change (44% of the variance) was due to the injury itself. This included changes associated with ganglion cell death, reactive gliosis, and abortive regeneration. The second pattern of gene changes (23% of the variance) was primarily related to differences in gene expressions observed between the C57BL/6J and DBA/2J mouse strains. The remaining changes in gene expression represent interactions between the effects of optic nerve crush and the genetic background of the mouse. We extracted one genetic network from this dataset that appears to be related to tissue remodeling. One of the most intriguing sets of changes included members of the crystallin family of genes, which may represent a signature of pathways modulating the susceptibility of cells to death. Differential responses to optic nerve crush between two widely used strains of mice were used to define molecular networks associated with ganglion cell death and reactive gliosis. These results form the basis for our continuing interest in the modifiers of retinal injury. 18 Samples: 9 per strain (C57BL/6J & DBA/2J); 3 conditions per strain

Project description:Reactive gliosis is a complex process that involves profound changes in gene expression. We used microarray to indentify differentially expressed genes and to investigate the molecular mechanisms of reactive gliosis in optic nerve head in response to optic nerve crush injury. C57Bl/6 female mice were 6-8 weeks old at the time of optic nerve crush surgery. The optic nerve in the left eye was crush 1 mm behind the globe for 10 seconds and the right eye served as contralateral control. The animals were allowed to recover for 1 day, 3 day, 1 week, 3 weeks and 3 months before the optic nerve heads were collected. The naive control mice did not receive any surgery in either eye. Due to the small tissue size of the mouse optic nerve head, two optic nerve heads were pooled together for each microarray chip. The left eyes and the right eyes of two mice were combined respectively to form one pair of experiment and control samples. There were five biological replicates (10 mice) for each condition.

Project description:The optic nerve is a white matter tract that conveys visual information to the brain. A detailed investigation of the proteome of the normal human retrobulbar optic nerve may help facilitate studies of the biology and pathophysiology of the optic nerve. We conducted an in-depth proteomic analysis of optic nerve from five adults. Proteins were fractionated using SDS-PAGE. After in-gel digestion, peptides were analyzed using LC-MS/MS on an Orbitrap Elite mass spectrometer. We identified 2,711 non-redundant proteins in the human retrobulbar optic nerve, including the astrocytic marker glial fibrillary acidic protein, several proteins expressed by oligodendrocytes (laminin, proteolipid protein, and fibronectin), myelin proteins (myelin basic protein, myelin-associated glycoprotein), paranodal structural proteins (neurofascin, contactin, α, β, and γ adducins, septin 2, endophilin, ankyrin β, spectrin), proteins involved in neuronal protection and regeneration (α crytallins A and B, dedicator of cytokinesis proteins, ciliary neurotrophic factor), proteins associated with open-angle glaucoma (thioredoxin, heat shock protein-70), and proteins associated with optic neuritis (aquaporin-4). Twenty-one unambiguous protein isoforms were identified in the optic nerve.

Project description:The optic nerve is a white matter tract that conveys visual information to the brain. The sclera comprises the white, protective outer layer of the eye. A characterization of the proteome of normal human retrobulbar optic nerve and sclera may facilitate studies of the eye. We conducted a proteomic analysis of optic nerve and sclera from five adults. Proteins were fractionated using SDS-PAGE. After in-gel digestion, peptides were analyzed using LC-MS/MS on an Orbitrap Elite mass spectrometer. We identified 2,711 non-redundant proteins in retrobulbar optic nerve and 1945 non-redundant proteins in sclera. Optic nerve proteins included proteins expressed by oligodendrocytes (laminin, proteolipid protein, fibronectin), myelin proteins (myelin basic protein, myelin-associated glycoprotein), and paranodal structural proteins (ankyrin β, spectrin). Sclera included 18 collagen protein chains, small leucine-rich proteoglycans (decorin, biglycan, lumican, keratocan, prolargin, fibromodulin, mimecan), non-collagenous glycoproteins (fibronectin, vitronectin, laminin), extracellular matrix proteins (thrombospondins 1-4, dystroglycan, transgelins 1-3), and integrins alpha-V, alpha-1 and 2, beta-1, -2, and -5. Twenty-one unambiguous protein isoforms were identified in optic nerve and ten unambiguous protein isoforms were identified in sclera. The mass spectrometry proteomics data have been deposited to the ProteomeXchange Consortium via the PRIDE partner repository with the optic nerve dataset identifier PXD001581.

Project description:Array experiment: Animals were divided into a control group (naive), which did not undergo any experimental manipulation (n=20) and two experimental groups, one receiving an intra-orbital nerve transection (IONT, n=60) and the other an intra-orbital nerve crush (IONC, n=60) Sterile precautions were maintained for all surgical procedures. The left ON was intraorbitally axotomized according to procedures that are standard in our laboratory. (REF) Briefly, an incision was made in the superior orbital rim, the superoexternal orbital contents were dissected, and the superior and external rectus muscles were removed. When performing IONT, the dura mater was opened longitudinally to spare the blood supply, and the optic nerve was transected 0.5 mm from the optic disc. To perform IONC the optic nerve was crushed 3 mm from the optic disc during 10 seconds using a pair of watchmakers forceps (Vidal-Sanz et al., 1988, 1991; Villegas-Perez et al., 1993). Before and after the procedure, the eye fundus was observed through the operating microscope to assess the integrity of the retinal blood flow. Tissue processing and RNA extraction: Animals were kept the appropriate time post injury (12h, 24h, 48h, 3d 7d and 15d, n=8-12 per time point) and then sacrificed by an intraperitoneal overdose of sodium pentobarbital. Left retinas were fresh dissected and immediately frozen in liquid nitrogen. Four retinas from each time point, animal group and biological replica were pooled and RNA was extracted using Trizol (Invitrogen). RNA was further cleaned through RNAeasy mini kit columns (Quiagen). The RNA integrity was checked using a Bioanalyzer (Agilent Technologies, USA) and concentrations were determined using a NanoDrop (NanoDrop Technologies, Wilmington, DE, USA).

Project description:The normal gene expression profiles of the tissues in the eye are a valuable resource for considering genes likely to be involved with disease processes. This is based on the assumption that transcript abundances in healthy tissue are correlated to the continued health of that tissue. Expression values were compared with publically available EST and RNA-sequencing resources. The estimated gene and exon level abundances are available online on the Ocular Tissue Database. Ten different tissues were obtained from 6 different individuals and RNA was pooled. The tissues included: retina, optic nerve head (ONH), optic nerve (ON), ciliary body (CB), trabecular meshwork (TM), sclera, lens, cornea, choroid/RPE and iris.

Project description:retinal ganglion cells die after optic nerve injury, either crush or transection. The molecular causesunderlying this degeneration are largely unkwon; the purpose of this job is to find which (if any) gene regulation triggers RGC death with the final goal of design neuroprotective protocols Experiment Overall Design: 3 groups: naive, IONT (intraorbital nerve transection) IONC (intraorbital nerve crush). IONT and IONC lesioned animals were kept the appropriate times postlesion (12h,. 24h, 48h, 3d, 7d, and 15d). For each time point 8-12 animals were used. RNA from 4 animals was pooled and extracted to hybridaze 1 array replica. All replicas were pooled biological replicas: 5 for naive RNA (each replica 4 retinas, therefore 5 independent RNA extractions were done with a total of 20 retinas), IONT: 12h 3 replicas, 24h 2 replicas, 48h 3replicas, 3d 2 replicas, 7d 3 replicas, 15d 2 replicas. IONC: 3 replicas per time point: 12h, 24h, 48h, 3d and 7d)

Project description:Various retinal disorder such as glaucomatous, retinal ischemia reperfusion, and traumatic optic neuropathy, are involved in the pathogenesis of neurodegeneration via glutamate exicitotoxicity. However, the proteomic characteristics and modulation of the neural-microenvironment with NMDA-induced neurodegeneration in retina and optic nerve remain partly understood. We established a protein sketch of NMDA-induced injury by comparing the proteomes of the PBS-operated, NMDA-operated and control groups. We carried out mass spectrometry-based label-free quantitative proteomics to investigate the exicitotoxic neurodegeneration mechanisms and identify key proteins that regulated neural cell death related signaling pathway in retina and optic nerve spatially. Using LC-MS/MS proteomics analysis, in total, we identified 3532 proteins in retina, 2593 proteins in optic nerve. According to Gene Ontology (GO), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG), the protein changes and energy metabolism in retina and optic nerve tissue were comprehensively evaluated.

Project description:Axon regeneration in the central nervous system (CNS) requires reactivating injured neurons’ intrinsic growth state and enabling growth in an inhibitory environment. Using an inbred mouse neuronal phenotypic screen, we find that CAST/Ei mouse adult dorsal root ganglion neurons extend axons more on CNS myelin than the other eight strains tested, especially when pre-injured. Injury-primed CAST/Ei neurons also regenerate markedly in the spinal cord and optic nerve more than those from C57BL/6 mice and show greater spouting following ischemic stroke. Heritability estimates indicate that extended growth in CAST/Ei neurons on myelin is genetically determined, and two whole-genome expression screens yield the Activin transcript Inhba as most correlated with this ability. These screens are presented here. Biological quadruplicate - Mouse tissue - Naïve Dorsal Root Ganglia (DRG) and 5 day post sciatic nerve crush DRG - x9 strains.
