Glucocorticoid Induced Changes in Gene Expression in Human Lens Epithelial Cells

ABSTRACT: Prolonged use of glucocorticoids can lead to the formation of a cataract, however the mechanism is not known. We recently reported the presence of the functional glucocorticoid receptor in immortalized cultured mammalian lens epithelial cells (Gupta & Wagner, Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci 2003), but the short term biological effect of glucocorticoid action in lens epithelial cells is not known. This study seeks to examine glucocorticoid induced changes in global gene expression in LECs. RNA isolated from HLE B-3 cells, treated with Dex or Veh for 4 or 16 hours, was used to analyze global changes in gene expression by microarray hybridization. Microarray studies at 2 time periods demonstrate that glucocorticoids modulate gene expression in immortalized human LECs, reveal novel changes in gene expression, and confirms an endogenous genomic lens glucocorticoid response. Keywords: treatment response

Transcription profiling of human lens epithelial cells to examine glucocorticoid induced changes

Project description:Prolonged use of glucocorticoids can lead to the formation of a cataract, however the mechanism is not known. We recently reported the presence of the functional glucocorticoid receptor in immortalized cultured mammalian lens epithelial cells (Gupta & Wagner, Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci 2003), but the short term biological effect of glucocorticoid action in lens epithelial cells is not known.

Microarray studies at 2 time periods demonstrate that glucocorticoids modulate gene expression in immortalized human LECs, reveal novel changes in gene expression, and confirms an endogenous genomic lens glucocorticoid response. Experiment Overall Design: HLE B-3 cells were treated with 1uM dexamethasone or vehicle for 4 or 16 hours in triplicate. Total RNA was converted to cRNA and hybridized to Affymetrix HUM_133A genechips. Images were acquired using the Affymetrix GeneArray scanner. Data was extracted using Affymetrix Microarray Suite 5.0.

Autophagy facilitates age-related cell apoptosis - a new insight from senile cataract

Project description:Age-related cell loss underpins many senescence-associated diseases. Senile cataract is a primary blindness-causing age-related ocular disease. Apoptosis of lens epithelial cells (LECs) is the common cellular basis of senile cataract resulted from prolonged exposure to oxidative stress, the mechanism of which remains elusive. Here we reported the concomitance of increased autophagy and apoptosis in the same LEC from senile cataract patients. Oxidative stress triggered autophagy preceded apoptosis, while blocking autophagy by ablation of Atg7 or Atg3 gene remarkably suppressed apoptosis in HLE-B3 cell line. We identified autophagy adaptor SQSTM1/p62 as the critical scaffold protein to sustain a pro-survival signaling PKCι-NF-κB cascades, which antagonized the pro-apoptotic signaling in LECs. Importantly, prolonged autophagy in human senescent LECs responding to oxidative stress induced extensive degradation of p62 protein and therefore facilitated apoptosis. Moreover, pharmacological inhibitor of autophagy, 3-MA, significantly rescued apoptosis of human senescent LECs challenged by oxidative stress. Collectively, our data demonstrated that hyperactivation of autophagy aggravates age-related apoptotic cell death via inhibiting the p62-PKCι-NF-κB pro-survival axis in human senescent LECs. This work expands the understanding of the etiology of senile cataract and provides insight for mechanisms of age-related cell death in senescence-associated diseases.

Human pluripotent stem cell-derived ROR1e lens epithelial cell single cell RNA-sequencing

Project description:Detailed transcriptomic analyses of differentiated cell populations derived from human pluripotent stem cells is routinely used to assess the identity and utility of the differentiated cells. In particular, single cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) can provide insights into both the cellular and transcriptional heterogeneity of differentiated cell populations. Here we provide scRNA-seq data obtained from ROR1-expressing lens epithelial cells (ROR1e LECs) obtained via directed differentiation of CA1 human embryonic stem cells. Through the use of principal component analysis, heat maps and gene ontology assessments, we demonstrate that ROR1e LECs represent a highly purified and large-scale population of lens cells. These data provide a resource for future characterisation of both normal and cataractous human lens biology.

RNA-seq of nine primary human cell types exposed in vitro to methylprednisolone

Project description:Glucocorticoids remain the most widely used class of anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive agents. They act primarily by binding to the glucocorticoid receptor, resulting in direct and indirect effects on gene expression. The current understanding of glucocorticoid effects on transcription in human cells is based mostly on studies of cancer cell lines, immortalized cell lines, or highly mixed populations of primary cells (such as peripheral blood mononuclear cells). To advance the understanding of the transcriptome-wide effects of glucocorticoids on highly pure populations of primary human cells, we performed RNA-seq on nine such cell populations at two time points after in vitro exposure to methylprednisolone or vehicle.

Long noncoding RNA expression profile in HLE B-3 cells during TGF-β2-induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition

Project description:Recent evidences have showed that long noncoding RNA (lncRNAs) are involved in the process of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). To understand lncRNAs expression profile and potential functions in EMT of lens epithelial cells (HLE B-3), we investigated the lncRNA and mRNA expression in normal cells and TGF-β2 induced cells using microarray analysis.
