To Be or Not to Be - Decoding the Trabecular Meshwork Cell Identity

ABSTRACT: The trabecular meshwork within the conventional outflow apparatus is critical in maintaining intraocular pressure homeostasis. In vitro studies employing primary cell cultures of the human trabecular meshwork (hTM) have conventionally served as surrogates for investigating the pathobiology of TM dysfunction. Despite its abundant use, translation of outcomes from in vitro studies to ex vivo and/or in vivo studies remains a challenge. Given the cell heterogeneity, performing single-cell RNA sequencing comparing primary hTM cell cultures to hTM tissue may provide important insights on cellular identity and translatability, as such an approach has not been reported before. In this study, we assembled a total of 14 primary hTM in vitro samples across passages 1-4, including 4 samples from individuals diagnosed with glaucoma. This dataset offers a comprehensive transcriptomic resource of primary hTM in vitro scRNA-seq data to study global changes in gene expression in comparison to cells in tissue in situ. We have performed extensive preprocessing and quality control, allowing the research community to access and utilize this public resource.

Transcriptome-wide study of the response of human trabecular meshwork cells to the substrate stiffness increase

Project description:Elevated intraocular pressure, a major risk factor of glaucoma, is caused by the abnormal function of trabecular outflow pathways. Human trabecular meshwork (HTM) tissue plays an important role in the outflow pathways. However, the molecular mechanisms that how TM cells respond to the elevated IOP are largely unknown. We cultured primary HTM cells on polyacrylamide gels with tunable stiffness corresponding to Young's moduli ranging from 1.1 to 50 kPa. Then next‐generation RNA sequencing (RNA‐seq) was performed to obtain the transcriptomic profiles of HTM cells. Bioinformatics analysis revealed that genes related to glaucoma including DCN, SPARC, and CTGF, were significantly increased with elevated substrate stiffness, as well as the global alteration of HTM transcriptome. Extracellular matrix (ECM)‐related genes were selectively activated in response to the elevated substrate stiffness, consistent with the known molecular alteration in glaucoma. Human normal and glaucomatous TM tissues were also obtained to perform RNA‐seq experiments and supported the substrate stiffness‐altered transcriptome profiles from the in vitro cell model. The current study profiled the transcriptomic changes in human TM cells upon increasing substrate stiffness. Global change of ECM‐related genes indicates that the in vitro substrate stiffness could greatly affect the biological processes of HTM cells. The in vitro HTM cell model could efficiently capture the main pathogenetic process in glaucoma patients, and provide a powerful method to investigate the underlying molecular mechanisms.

Transcription profiling of human trabecular meshwork cells after TGF-beta1 and 2 treatment

Project description:TGF-beta levels are known to increase in the aqueous humor of eye cells in patients with glaucoma. Increase TGF-beta is assumed to have a biochemical impact on the trabecular meshwork, and an increase in extracellular matrix formation, which may be responsible for decrease outflow facility of the eye. This may increase extracellular pressure, causing glaucoma. TGF-beta 1 may be the cause of abnormal accumulation of extracellular matrices in trabecular meshwork of eyes with primary open angle glaucoma. Transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta2 regulates the expression of proteoglycans in aqueous humor from human glaucomatous eyes. To identify gene expression changes as a result of TGF-beta1 and 2 treatment of human trabecular meshwork cells. We expect to see a change in expression of the proteoglycans in HTM cells as a response to TGF-beta treatment. Human Trabecular Meswork cells in the eye were bathed by aqueous humor. TM cells were removed from individuals with the following ages: 16,66,67,73, and 76. Each individual was treated with EtOH (control), TGF-beta1, or TGF-beta2. Total RNA from each individual was pooled for each chip. Technical replicates were created for each treatment type, for a total of 6 chips.

Changes in Gene expression mediated by Cyclic Mechanical Stress in Trabecular Meshwork Cells

Project description:Purpose: To investigate the changes in gene expression induced by cyclic mechanical stress (CMS) in trabecular meshwork (TM) cells. Methods: HTM cultures from three donors were plated on type I collagen-coated flexible silicone bottom plates and subjected to 15% stretching, 1 cycle per second for 6 hours. Non-stressed parallel control cultures were incubated under the same conditions in the absence of CMS. Total RNA from each culture was amplified (1 round amplification) and hybridized to Operon Human Oligo Arrays version 3.0 (35K). Control used was Universal Reference Human RNA from Stratagene. Differences in gene expression induced by CMS were analyzed using Genespring 7.2.

Genome-wide expression profile of human trabecular meshwork cultured cells, non-glaucomatous and POAG tissue

Project description:The goal of this study was to contrast genome-wide gene expression profiles of cultured human trabecular meshwork (HTM) cells, to that of control and primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) HTM tissues. Total RNA from cultured HTM cells and HTM tissue dissected from control and POAG anterior segments fixed in RNA later™ was linearly amplified with the OvationTM Biotin RNA Amplification and Labeling System and individually hybridized to Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 high density microarrays. Data analysis was performed using the GeneSpring Software 7.0. Selected genes showing significant differential expression were validated by Quantitative real-time PCR in nonamplified RNA. Cultured HTM cells retained the expression of some genes characteristic of the HTM tissue, including chitinase 3-like 1 and matrix Gla protein, but demonstrated downregulation of physiologically important genes such as myocilin. POAG HTM tissue showed relatively small changes compared to that of control donors. These changes included the statistically significant upregulation of several genes associated with inflammation and acute-phase response, including selectin-E (ELAM-I), as well as the downregulation of the antioxidants, paraoxonase 3 and ceruloplasmin. Downregulation in cultured HTM cells of genes potentially relevant for outflow pathway function highlights the importance of developing new conditions for the culture of TM cells capable of preserving the characteristics of TM cells in vivo. Comparative analysis between control and POAG tissues suggests that the upregulation of inflammation-associated genes might be involved in the progression of glaucoma. Keywords: Cell type comparison
