Dental Lighting Environment Induces Disruption of the Blood-Retinal Barrier

ABSTRACT: Excessive lighting is integral to dentists' daily routines but can impair their vision, affecting personal and professional performance. Most studies focus on acute photodamage, neglecting chronic photoinjury from dental lighting and its impact on the blood-retinal barrier homeostasis. An epidemiological survey involving 14,523 individuals reveals dentists have a higher prevalence of vision-related issues compared to other occupations. Subsequently, chronic photodamage models in rats were created to accurately simulate dental working conditions. Using systematic imaging and gene analysis, including OCT, tissue clearing technology and RNA-sequencing, dental lighting was found to disrupted both inner and outer blood-retinal barriers, reduced retinal blood vessels, and promoted perivascular macrophage recruitment. Moreover, the activation of inflammatory-related pathways such as NF-κB signalling resulted in the damage of vision-related functional structures in the retina. Notably, among the three commonly used dental lighting sources, low-intensity halogen light possessed a minimal impact on the retina, while blue and white LEDs have remarkable negative effects on blood-retinal barrier homeostasis. This study explored the potential mechanism of dental lighting environment inducing the disruption of blood-retinal barrier homeostasis, and provided essential guidance for dental professionals in selecting light sources, which is conducive to reducing the risk of occupational ocular diseases among dentists.

RNA-Seq data of mouse retina, retinal pigment epithelium and cones

Project description:The differentiation of cone photoreceptors, which mediate daylight vision and color vision, depends critically upon thyroid hormone.However, the route of access of blood-borne thyroid hormone to cones is undefined because cones reside behind the blood-retina barrier. This study uses genetic manipulation of a membrane transporter for thyroid hormone (Mct8) in mouse models to show a role for the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), which forms the outer blood-retina barrier, in the control of cone differentiation.The results suggest a paracrine-like mechanism promotes thyroid hormone-mediated cone differentiation. The findings suggest that in addition to the transport of essential solutes and support of photoreceptor homeostasis, the RPE controls hormonal signaling required for cone differentiation.

Molecular basis of retinal remodeling in a Zebrafish model of Retinitis Pigmentosa

Project description:A hallmark of inherited retinal degenerative diseases such as Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP) is progressive structural and functional remodeling of the remaining retinal cells as photoreceptors degenerate. Extensive remodeling of the retina stands as a barrier for the successful implementation of strategies to restore vision. To understand the molecular basis of remodeling, we performed analyses of single-cell transcriptome data from adult Zebrafish retina of wild-type and a P23H mutant rhodopsin transgenic model of RP with continuous degeneration and regeneration. We provide a benchmark atlas of retinal cell type transcriptomes in Zebrafish and find changes in all retinal cell types in the P23H model. These include widespread oxidative stress, changes in reliance on oxidative metabolism and glycolysis, widespread synaptic remodeling, and changes in circadian rhythm regulation. This comprehensive transcriptomic analysis provides a molecular road map to understand how the retina remodels in the context of chronic retinal degeneration with ongoing regeneration.

The transcriptional response to Norrin/Fz4 signaling

Project description:Using mice with targeted gene mutations, we identify (1) distinct roles for different canonical Wnt signaling components in central nervous system (CNS) vascular development and in the specification of the blood-brain and blood-retina barriers (BBB and BRB) and (2) differential sensitivities of the vasculature in various CNS regions to perturbations in canonical Wnt signaling components. We find nearly equivalent roles for Lrp5 and Lrp6 in brain vascular development and barrier maintenance but a dominant role for Lrp5 in the retinal vasculature, an especially high sensitivity of the BBB in the cerebellum and pons/interpeduncular nuclei to decrements in canonical Wnt signaling, and plasticity in the barrier properties of mature CNS vasculature. Brain and retinal vascular defects caused by loss of Norrin/Frizzled4 signaling can be fully rescued by stabilizing beta-catenin, and loss of beta-catenin’s transcriptional activation domain or expression of a dominant negative Tcf4 recapitulates the vascular development and barrier defects seen with loss of receptor, co-receptor, or ligand, indicating that Norrin/Frizzled4 signaling acts predominantly by beta-catenin-dependent transcriptional regulation. This work strongly supports a model in which identical or nearly identical canonical Wnt signaling mechanisms mediate neural tube and retinal vascularization and maintain the BBB and BRB. Total retina RNA from P10 WT, NdpKO, Ctnnb1flex3/+;Pdgfb-CreER, and NdpKO;Ctnnb1flex3/+;Pdgfb-CreER mice was subjected to RNAseq

RNA analysis of the circadian rhythm of choroidal neovascularization

Project description:Many diseases that affect the heart, brain, and even the eyes originate from vascular pathology, emphasizing the role of vascular regulation. In age-related macular degeneration (AMD), excessive growth of abnormal blood vessels in the eye (choroidal neovascularization) ultimately leads to detachment of retinal pigment epithelium and decreased vision, indicating the importance of choroidal neovascularization in the treatment of age-related diseases. The circadian clock in the mammalian retina regulates various retinal functions, enabling the retina to adapt to the light dark cycle. Emerging evidence suggests a link between circadian clock and retinopathy, but the causal relationship has not yet been determined.

Analysis of the retinal gene expression after hypoxic preconditioning identifies candidate genes for neuroprotection

Project description:Neuroprotective therapies for retinal degeneration may be used to rescue retinal cells and preserve vision. Hypoxic preconditioning stabilizes the transcription factor HIF-1α in the retina and strongly protects photoreceptors in an animal model of light-induced retinal degeneration. Our data suggest that neuroprotection after hypoxic preconditioning of the retina is the result of the differential expression of a multitude of genes which may act in concert to protect visual cells against a toxic insult. Keywords: hypoxic preconditioning, neuroprotection, transcription-profile, retina

Diurnal gene expression in the retina of a mouse model of diabetic retinopathy

Project description:The mammalian retina contains an endogenous circadian clock system, located in various cell types. This system enables timing of a broad range of essential retinal functions to anticipate daily changes in environmental lighting conditions. Furthermore, the circadian clocks appear to promote retinal health. A leading cause of blindness in developed countries is diabetic retinopathy. While it is clear that diabetes affects the master clock and its circadian output in the SCN, the effect of diabetic retinopathy on the retinal clock system is unknown. To investigate the influence of diabetic retinopathy on circadian regulation of the retina at a genome-wide level, microarray analysis was used to compare retinal transcriptomes between light- and dark-adapted non-diabetic and diabetic mice.

Transcription profiling of mouse retinal gene expression after hypoxic preconditioning identifies candidate genes for neuroprotection

Project description:Neuroprotective therapies for retinal degeneration may be used to rescue retinal cells and preserve vision. Hypoxic preconditioning stabilizes the transcription factor HIF-1Î± in the retina and strongly protects photoreceptors in an animal model of light-induced retinal degeneration. Our data suggest that neuroprotection after hypoxic preconditioning of the retina is the result of the differential expression of a multitude of genes which may act in concert to protect visual cells against a toxic insult. Experiment Overall Design: In total 24 samples were analyzed on Affymetrix mouse 430.2 arrays, the samples represent different durations of regeneration (none = 0 h, 2 h, 4 h and 16 h) from hypoxic or normoxic treatments, that were tested in triplicates.

FACS-array profiling in retinal endothelial cells from living mouse retinas without pericyte coverage

Project description:Pericytes confer vascular stability in the retina, and the loss of pericytes can cause the blood-retina barrier breakdown seen in diabetic retinopathy. To identify endothelial-specific genes expressed in pericyte-deprived retinal vessels, we purified genetically labeled endothelial cells from Tie2-GFP transgenic mice treated with neutralizing antibody against PDGFRb (APB5) and performed gene expression profiling using DNA microarray. To find out endothelial-specific genes associated with the loss of pericyte coverage, the comparison of microarray data was carried out between retinal endothelial cells (data from GSE27238) and APB5-treated retinal endothelial cells.

FACS-array profiling in retinal endothelial cells from living mouse retinas

Project description:Deregulated retinal angiogenesis directly cause vision loss in many ocular diseases, such as diabetic retinopathy and retinopathy of prematurity. To identify endothelial-specific genes expressed in angiogenic retinal vessels, we purified genetically labeled endothelial cells from Tie2-GFP transgenic mice and performed gene expression profiling using DNA microarray. To find out genes associated with angiogenesis, comparisons of microarray data were carried out between GFP-negative non-endothelial retinal cells and GFP-positive retinal endothelial cells in angiogenic P8 retina. Eighteen arrays are included. Utilizing fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS), we isolated endothelial cells as GFP-positive cells from P8 retina in homozygous Tie2-GFP transgenic mice. GFP-negative cells were served as non-endothelial control. RNA extracts from sorted cells were amplified and then hybridized to Affymetrix MGU74v2 series arrays in triplicate.
