Project description:Differential expression of HSF4 in null newborn mouse and wildtype lenses was examined to identify putative downstream targets of HSF4. To examine roles of Brg1 in mouse lens development, a dnBrg1 transgenic construct was expressed using the lens-specific aA-crystallin promoter in postmitotic lens fiber cells. Morphological studies revealed abnormal lens fiber cell differentiation in transgenic lenses resulting in cataract. Electron microscopic studies showed abnormal lens suture formation and incomplete karyolysis (denucleation) of lens fiber cells. To identify genes regulated by Brg1, RNA expression profiling was performed in E15.5 embryonic wild type and dnBrg1 transgenic lenses. In addition, comparisons between differentially expressed genes in dnBrg1 transgenic, Pax6 heterozygous, and Hsf4 homozygous lenses identified multiple genes co-regulated by Brg1, Hsf4 and Pax6. Among them DNase IIb, a key enzyme required for lens fiber cell denucleation, was found downregulated in each of the Pax6, Brg1 and Hsf4 model systems. Lens-specific deletion of Brg1 using conditional gene targeting demonstrated that Brg1 was required for lens fiber cell differentiation and indirectly for retinal development but was not essential for lens lineage formation. Keywords: Differential mRNA Expression Three biological replicate experiments were performed with HSF null and wildtype lenses.

Project description:Gata3 is a DNA-binding transcription factor involved in cellular differentiation in a variety of tissues. To investigate the role of Gata3 in lens development we conducted lens-specific conditional loss-of-function model of Gata3 and confirmed abnormal regulation of cell cycle exit-coupled lens differentiation and retention of nuclei in the mutated lens fibers. We analyzed transcriptomes between control and mutated lenses by RNA-seq and revealed dysregulation of genes encoding critical components of the lens differentiation cascade, including a subset of crystallin genes, down-regulation of Dnase2b and reduced expression of Cdkn1b/p27 and Cdkn1c/p57.

Project description:Age-related breakdown of lenticular crystallins is associated with lenticular disorders such as cataract. Despite playing a critical role in maintaining lens homeostasis, the mechanism(s) and consequences of this phenomenon are not well understood. Utilising a proteomic-based approach, this study characterised 238 endogenous peptides derived from age-related crystallin breakdowns present in the cortical tissues of young, middle-age and old human lenses. Quantitative mass spectrometry analysis showed that the concentration of a prominent crystallin breakdown product in the lens increased significantly with age, which, coupled with the age-related increase in variety of the LMW crystallin peptide in the lens cortex, suggests that a major crystallin breakdown event taking place in the human lens cortex shortly after middle-age. In-depth analysis on the crystallin peptide terminal amino acids indicate the presence of trypsin-like proteolysis in the lens cortical cells, providing useful information on the mechanism(s) that contribute to crystallin breakdown in the aging human lens. Taken together, this work enhances our understanding on the age-related crystallin breakdown process in the cortical tissues of the human lens.

Project description:The lens of the eye is consisted of lens fiber cells that undergo large-scale organelle degradation during terminal differentiation. To understand the molecular mechanism of large-scale organelle degradation, we compared the gene expression profiles between the lens and body without eyes of larval zebrafish using a microarray analysis.

Project description:The mature eye lens contains a surface layer of epithelial cells called the lens epithelium that require a functional mitochondrial population to maintain the homeostasis and transparency of the entire lens. The lens epithelium overlies a core of terminally differentiated fiber cells that must degrade their mitochondria to achieve lens transparency. These distinct mitochondrial populations make the lens a useful model system to identify those genes that regulate the balance between mitochondrial homeostasis and elimination. Here we used an RNA sequencing and bioinformatics approach to identify the transcript levels of all genes expressed by distinct regions of the lens epithelium and maturing fiber cells of the embryonic Gallus gallus (chicken) lens. Our analysis detected over 15,000 unique transcripts expressed by the embryonic chicken lens. Of these, over 3000 transcripts exhibited significant differences in expression between lens epithelial cells and fiber cells. Multiple transcripts coding for separate mitochondrial homeostatic and degradation mechanisms were identified to exhibit preferred patterns of expression in lens epithelial cells that require mitochondria relative to lens fiber cells that require mitochondrial elimination. These included differences in the expression levels of metabolic, autophagy, and mitophagy transcripts between lens epithelial cells and lens fiber cells. These data provide a comprehensive window into all genes transcribed by the lens and those mitochondrial regulatory and degradation pathways that function to maintain mitochondrial populations in the lens epithelium and to eliminate mitochondria in maturing lens fiber cells. Differentiation-state transcriptional analysis of embryonic chicken lenses was performed following microdissection of 100 embryonic day 13 (E13) chicken lenses into four distinct regions that represent a continuum of lens cell differentiation states: lens central epithelium (EC), equatorial epithelium (EQ), cortical fibers (FP), and central fibers (FC). Further analysis of the transcriptional content of biologically replicate samples was performed by Illumina directional mRNA sequencing and resulting reads mapped by TopHat and assembled with Cufflinks.

Project description:A large variety of low molecular weight (LMW) peptides, derived from the breakdown of crystallins, have been reported in middle to old age human lenses. The proliferation of these LMW peptides coincides with the earliest stages of cataract formation, suggesting that the protein cleavages involved may contribute to the aggregation and insolubilisation of crystallins – these being hall marks of cataractogenesis. This study reports the identification of 238 endogenous LMW crystallin peptides from the cortical extracts of human lenses aged 16, 44, 75 and 83 years. Analysis of the peptide terminal amino acids showed that Lys and Arg were situated at the C-terminus with significantly higher frequency compared to other residues, suggesting that trypsin-like proteolysis may be active in the lens cortical fibre cells. Selected reaction monitoring (SRM) analysis of a prominent αA-crystallin peptide (αA57-65) showed that the concentration of this peptide in the human lens increased gradually to middle age, after which the rate of αA57-65 formation escalated significantly. Using 2-D gel electrophoresis and nanoLC-ESI-MS/MS, 13 protein complexes of 40-150 kDa consisting of multiple crystallin components were characterised from the water soluble cortical extracts of an adult human lens. The detection of these protein complexes suggested the possibility of crystallin cross-linking, with these complexes potentially acting to stabilise degraded crystallins by sequestration into water soluble complexes.
