Transcriptome (RNA-seq) analysis of the retina of crumbs 2a (crb2a m289/m289) zebrafish model of Leber congenital amaurosis and retinitis pigmentosa.


ABSTRACT: The crumbs cell polarity complex plays a crucial role in apical-basal epithelial polarity. When human CRB1 is mutated, it results in autosomal recessive Leber congenital amaurosis and retinitis pigmentosa, with no established genotype-phenotype correlation. Using the oko meduzym289/m289 (crb2a-/-) zebrafish model, we performed integrative transcriptomic and methylomic analysis to identify dysregulated genes and pathways. We reveal delayed retinal cell type specification confirmed in patient-derived retinal organoids, with disruption to cell cycle modulation and epigenetic transcriptional control. Hence, using reduced representation bisulphite sequencing (RRBS) we explored differential DNA methylation, identifying hypermethylated pathways involving biological adhesion, Hippo and transforming growth factor beta (TGFbeta) signalling. Functional epigenetic modules (FEM) were highlighted through the integration of RNA-seq and RRBS, confirming cell cycle involvement and disturbance of TGFbeta, BMP, Hippo and SMAD protein signal transduction. Taken together our work provides insights for epigenetic regulation in early retinal development and considerations for future therapeutic development.
