Cellular crosstalk regulates the aqueous humor outflow pathway and provides new targets for glaucoma therapies

ABSTRACT: Angiopoietin-1 signaling is essential for development of Schlemm's canal, a large lymphatic-like endothelial vessel in the iridocorneal angle. Single cell RNA sequencing is a powerful tool allowing for examination of the specific transcriptome of each cell type within a tissue. Here, we used single cell RNA sequencing to examin the structures of the mouse iridocorneal angle, using loss of Schlemm's canal in neural-crest specific Angpt1 knockout mice to aid in identification of Schlemm's canal endothelial cells. This dataset provides a resource for analysis of trabecular meshwork / Schlemm's canal crosstalk and the role(s) of Angpt1 in formation of the iridocorneal angle.

Differentially expressed microRNAs in the aqueous humor of patients with exfoliation glaucoma or primary open-angle glaucoma

Project description:To better understand the molecular changes in the aqueous humor (AH) content with glaucoma, we analyzed the microRNA (miRNA) profiles of AH samples from patients with Primary Open Angle Glaucoma (POAG) and Exfoliation Glaucoma (XFG) compared to non-glaucoma controls.

Reduced Aqueous Humor Outflow Pathway Arborization in Childhood Glaucoma Eyes.

Project description:PurposeTo compare aqueous humor outflow (AHO) pathway patterns between eyes of childhood glaucoma patients and non-glaucomatous patients receiving cataract surgery.MethodsAqueous angiography was performed in childhood glaucoma eyes (n = 5) receiving glaucoma surgery and in pediatric (n = 1) and healthy adult (n = 5) eyes receiving cataract surgery. Indocyanine green (0.4%) was introduced into the anterior chamber, and AHO was imaged using an angiographic camera (SPECTRALIS HRA+OCT with Flex Module). Images were acquired and analyzed (ImageJ with Analyze Skeleton 2D/3D plugin) from the nasal sides of the eyes, the usual site of glaucoma angle procedures. Image analysis endpoints included AHO vessel length, maximum vessel length, number of branches, number of branch junctions, and vessel density.ResultsQualitatively, childhood glaucoma eyes demonstrated lesser AHO pathway arborization compared to pediatric and adult eyes without glaucoma. Quantitatively, childhood glaucoma and healthy adult cataract eyes showed similar AHO pathway average branch lengths and maximum branch lengths (P = 0.49-0.99). However, childhood glaucoma eyes demonstrated fewer branches (childhood glaucoma, 198.2 ± 35.3; adult cataract, 506 ± 59.5; P = 0.002), fewer branch junctions (childhood glaucoma, 74.6 ± 13.9; adult cataract, 202 ± 41.2; P = 0.019), and lower vessel densities (childhood glaucoma, 8% ± 1.4%; adult cataract, 17% ± 2.5%; P = 0.01).ConclusionsChildhood glaucoma patients demonstrated fewer distal AHO pathways and lesser AHO pathway arborization. These anatomical alternations may result in a new source of trabecular meshwork-independent AHO resistance in this disease cohort.Translational relevanceElevated distal outflow pathway resistance due to decreased AHO pathway arborization may explain some cases of failed trabecular bypass surgery in childhood glaucoma.

Expression profiling of extracellular long noncoding RNAs in aqueous humor of primary open-angle glaucoma patients

Project description:Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are emerging as important regulators in cellular processes and have been showed to be involved in the occurrence and development of various neurodegenerative diseases including glaucoma. The aim of this study is to reveal disease-related extracellular lncRNAs and message RNAs (mRNAs) in aqueous humor (AH) of individual primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) patients, to determine the potential biomarkers for POAG diagnosis

Visual Assessment of Aqueous Humor Outflow.

Project description:In the past decade, many new pharmacological and surgical treatments have become available to lower intraocular pressure (IOP) for glaucoma. The majority of these options have targeted improving aqueous humor outflow (AHO). At the same time, in addition to new treatments, research advances in AHO assessment have led to the development of new tools to structurally assess AHO pathways and to visualize where aqueous is flowing in the eye. These new imaging modalities have uncovered novel AHO observations that challenge traditional AHO concepts. New behaviors including segmental, pulsatile, and dynamic AHO may have relevance to the disease and the level of therapeutic response for IOP-lowering treatments. By better understanding the regulation of segmental, pulsatile, and dynamic AHO, it may be possible to find new and innovative treatments for glaucoma aiming at these new AHO behaviors.

Cellular crosstalk regulates the aqueous humor outflow pathway and provides new targets for glaucoma therapies.

Project description:Primary congenital glaucoma (PCG) is a severe disease characterized by developmental defects in the trabecular meshwork (TM) and Schlemm's canal (SC), comprising the conventional aqueous humor outflow pathway of the eye. Recently, heterozygous loss of function variants in TEK and ANGPT1 or compound variants in TEK/SVEP1 were identified in children with PCG. Moreover, common variants in ANGPT1and SVEP1 have been identified as risk alleles for primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) in GWAS studies. Here, we show tissue-specific deletion of Angpt1 or Svep1 from the TM causes PCG in mice with severe defects in the adjacent SC. Single-cell transcriptomic analysis of normal and glaucomatous Angpt1 deficient eyes allowed us to identify distinct TM and SC cell populations and discover additional TM-SC signaling pathways. Furthermore, confirming the importance of angiopoietin signaling in SC, delivery of a recombinant ANGPT1-mimetic promotes developmental SC expansion in healthy and Angpt1 deficient eyes, blunts intraocular pressure (IOP) elevation and RGC loss in a mouse model of PCG and lowers IOP in healthy adult mice. Our data highlight the central role of ANGPT1-TEK signaling and TM-SC crosstalk in IOP homeostasis and provide new candidates for SC-targeted glaucoma therapy.

Aqueous Angiography: Real-Time and Physiologic Aqueous Humor Outflow Imaging.

Project description:PurposeTrabecular meshwork (TM) bypass surgeries attempt to enhance aqueous humor outflow (AHO) to lower intraocular pressure (IOP). While TM bypass results are promising, inconsistent success is seen. One hypothesis for this variability rests upon segmental (non-360 degrees uniform) AHO. We describe aqueous angiography as a real-time and physiologic AHO imaging technique in model eyes as a way to simulate live AHO imaging.MethodsPig (n = 46) and human (n = 6) enucleated eyes were obtained, orientated based upon inferior oblique insertion, and pre-perfused with balanced salt solution via a Lewicky AC maintainer through a 1mm side-port. Fluorescein (2.5%) was introduced intracamerally at 10 or 30 mm Hg. With an angiographer, infrared and fluorescent (486 nm) images were acquired. Image processing allowed for collection of pixel information based on intensity or location for statistical analyses. Concurrent OCT was performed, and fixable fluorescent dextrans were introduced into the eye for histological analysis of angiographically active areas.ResultsAqueous angiography yielded high quality images with segmental patterns (p<0.0001; Kruskal-Wallis test). No single quadrant was consistently identified as the primary quadrant of angiographic signal (p = 0.06-0.86; Kruskal-Wallis test). Regions of high proximal signal did not necessarily correlate with regions of high distal signal. Angiographically positive but not negative areas demonstrated intrascleral lumens on OCT images. Aqueous angiography with fluorescent dextrans led to their trapping in AHO pathways.ConclusionsAqueous angiography is a real-time and physiologic AHO imaging technique in model eyes.
