Project description:FYVE and coiled-coil domain containing 1 (FYCO1) is expressed ubiquitously and is required for microtubule-dependent, plus-end-directed transport of autophagic vesicles. We previously reported loss of function mutations in FYCO1 responsible for cataractogenesis with no other ocular and/or extra-ocular phenotype. Here, we show that Fyco1-/- lenses recapitulated the cataract phenotype and exhibited diminished autophagy, consistent with a critical role of Fyco1 and autophagy in lens morphogenesis. Transcriptome coupled with proteome and metabolome profiling identified many differentially expressed, autophagy-related, genes, proteins, and lipids, respectively in Fyco1-/- lenses. Flow cytometry of FYCO1 (c.2206C>T) knock-in (KI) human lens epithelial (HLE) cell line confirmed reduced amounts of membrane-bound LC3B-II and autophagic vesicles resulting from the loss of FYCO1. Transmission electron microscopy showed persistent organelle mass in Fyco1-/-lenses and FYCO1 KI lens-like organoid structures, which were further confirmed through western blot analysis. In summary, our data show that the absence of FYCO1 causes diminished autophagy, delayed organelle degradation, and cataractogenesis. These data support the model of FYCO1 supplementing basal autophagy in the lens to meet the physiological necessity of high autophagy levels required during lens fiber cell differentiation and lack thereof results in delayed organelle removal.

Project description:Genome-wide approach to identify the cell-autonomous role of Brg1 in lens fiber cell terminal differentiation. To examine roles of Brg1 in mouse lens development, a dnBrg1 transgenic construct was expressed using the lens-specific alphaA-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 IIbeta, 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.

Project description:SPARC is a matricellular glycoprotein involved in regulation of the extracellular matrix, growth factors, adhesion, and migration. SPARC-null mice have altered basement membranes and develop posterior sub-capsular cataracts with cell swelling and equatorial vacuoles. Exchange of fluid, nutrients, and waste products in the avascular lens is driven by a unique circulating ion current. Here we demonstrate that SPARC-null mouse lenses exhibit abnormal circulation of fluid, ion, and small molecules which leads to altered fluorescein distribution in vivo, loss of resting membrane polarization, and altered distribution of small molecules. Microarray analysis of SPARC-null lenses showed changes in gene expression of ion channels and receptors, matrix and adhesion genes, cytoskeleton, immune response genes, and cell signaling molecules. Our results demonstrate that the regulation of SPARC on cell-capsular matrix interactions can influence the circulation of fluid and ions in the lens, and the phenotype in the SPARC-null mouse lens is the result of multiple intersecting pathways. Experiment Overall Design: Lens epithelial cells from 7 lenses of littermate mice were isolated by laser capture microdissection. 3 wild-type lenses from 3 different mice and 4 knock-out lenses from 3 different mice were used as biological replicates.
