Project description:<p>Proper spatial differentiation of retinal cell types is necessary for normal human vision. Many retinal diseases, such as Best disease and male germ cell associated kinase (MAK)-associated retinitis pigmentosa, preferentially affect distinct topographic regions of the retina. While much is known about the distribution of cell types in the retina, the distribution of molecular components across the posterior pole of the eye has not been well-studied. To investigate regional difference in molecular composition of ocular tissues, we assessed differential gene expression across the temporal, macular, and nasal retina and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE)/choroid of human eyes using RNA-Seq. RNA from temporal, macular, and nasal retina and RPE/choroid from four human donor eyes was extracted, poly-A selected, fragmented, and sequenced as 100 bp read pairs. Digital read files were mapped to the human genome and analyzed for differential expression using the Tuxedo software suite. Retina and RPE/choroid samples were clearly distinguishable at the transcriptome level. Numerous transcription factors were differentially expressed between regions of the retina and RPE/choroid. Photoreceptor-specific genes were enriched in the peripheral samples, while ganglion cell and amacrine cell genes were enriched in the macula. Within the RPE/choroid, RPE-specific genes were upregulated at the periphery while endothelium associated genes were upregulated in the macula. Consistent with previous studies, BEST1 expression was lower in macular than extramacular regions. The MAK gene was expressed at lower levels in macula than in extramacular regions, but did not exhibit a significant difference between nasal and temporal retina. The regional molecular distinction is greatest between macula and periphery and decreases between different peripheral regions within a tissue. Datasets such as these can be used to prioritize candidate genes for possible involvement in retinal diseases with regional phenotypes. </p> <p>Reprinted from <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=25446321">Whitmore, S.S., Wagner, A.H., DeLuca, A.P., Drack, A.V., Stone, E.M., Tucker, B.A., Zeng, S., Braun, T.A., Mullins, R.F., Scheetz, T.E., 2014.

Project description:The retina could convert light into neurochemical information that is ultimately transmitted to the brain. The macula is a special structure at the back of the retina in humans and primates. The retinal pigment epithelium is a monolayer tissue layer that is fundamentally important for retinal development and function, and RPE dysfunction can lead to a variety of retinal degenerative diseases. Therefore, it is particularly important to study the differences between macular RPE region and peripheral RPE region. Single-cell sequencing technology enables us to analyze the heterogeneity of RPE, and found different molecular functions.So, we constructed a single-cell transcriptome atlas of macular and peripheral cells. The differences of TF, receptor ligand and function between macular RPE and peripheral RPE were analyzed. Finally, some clusters associated with retinal disease was identified. Our results provide data support for exploring the pathogenesis of RPE and retinal diseases, contributing to a deeper understanding of the physiological mechanism of retina and providing new ideas for the treatment of diseases.

Project description:The macula and fovea comprise a highly sensitive visual detection tissue that is susceptible to common disease processes such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Unfortunately our understanding of the molecular determinants of high acuity vision remains unclear, as few model organisms possess a human-like fovea. We explore transcription factor networks and receptor-ligand interactions to elucidate tissue interactions in the macula and peripheral retina and concomitant changes in the underlying retinal pigment epithelium (RPE)/choroid.

Project description:Microarray analysis of murine retinal light damage reveals changes in iron regulatory, complement, and antioxidant genes in the neurosensory retina and isolated retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). With the advent of microarrays representing most of the transcriptome and techniques to obtain RNA from the isolated RPE monolayer, we have probed the response of the RPE and neurosensory retina (NSR) to light damage.

PEDF was detected abundantly in culture supernatant media of primary and iPSC-derived RPE. We examined the gene expression in primary RPE and iPS-derived RPE. Two samples: RPE derived from 253G1 iPSC, Primary RPE.

Project description:This experiment analyzes the mirnome of 16 retina samples and 2 Retinal Pigment Epithelium (RPE)/choroid from non-visually impaired post-mortem donors, by using smallRNAseq on a Illumina platform. The aim was to establish the catalogue of normal retina-expressed miRNAs, determine their relative abundance, and identify miRNA variants (isomiRs).

Project description:Eye development and photoreceptor maintenance requires the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), a thin layer of cells that underlies the neural retina. Despite its importance, RPE development has not been studied by a genomic approach. A microarray expression profiling methodology was established in this study for studying RPE development. The intact retina with RPE attached was dissected from developing embryos, and differentially expressed genes in RPE were inferred by comparing the dissected tissues with retinas without RPE using microarray and statistical analyses. We found 8810 probesets to be significantly expressed in RPE at 52 hours post-fertilization (hpf), of which 1443 might have biologically meaningful expression levels. Further, 78 and 988 probesets were found to be significantly over- or under-expressed in RPE respectively compared to retina. Also, 79.2% (38/48) of the known over-expressed probesets have been independently validated as RPE-related transcripts. The results strongly suggest that this methodology can obtain in vivo RPE specific gene expression from the zebrafish embryos and identify novel RPE markers.
