Wildtype (wt) mouse cone transcriptome change with Txnip treatment
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Purpose: To identifiy mRNA changes in wt cone photoreceptors with Txnip overexpression treatment, which improved retinitis pigmentosa (RP) cone survival and visual acuity. Methods: two wt mouse strains, BALB/c and C57BL/6J were injected with AAV-Txnip or AAV-H2BGFP control subretinally at P0. Retinas were dissected out at P21 for BALB/c and P35 for C57BL/6J. 1,000 H2BGFP labeled cones per retina sample were FACS sorted out, and subject for RNA-sequencing. Results: only ~70 genes in P21 BALB/c and 1 genes in C57BL/6J were found differentially expressed with Txnip treatment. Only 1 genes (i.e. Txnip) were in commonly upregulated between the two lists. Conclusions: Txnip seems to be not changing RNA expression much in wt cones. Instead, its major function to rescue RP cones may lay in protein-protein interactions.
