Project description:To characterize gene response in RPE65-/- mouse model of Leber's congenital amaurosis during progression of the disease, we analyzed differential gene expression in retinae early in the development of the disease, namely before and at the onset of photoreceptor cell death in knock-out mice of 2, 4 and 6 months of age. Experiment Overall Design: We compared gene expression in wild type and RPE65-/- retinae at 2, 4 and 6 months of age. Three biological replicates were performed for each of the six conditions analyzed; this series hence contains 18 samples.

Project description:To investigate the role of the circadian clock of the photoreceptor cells in regulation of retinal protein rhythms, we have analyzed diurnal protein expression in the photoreceptor-deficient cone-rod homeobox knock out mouse (Crx-/-). Retinal homogenates of 129/sv and Crx-/- mice were analysed by 2D-PAGE. Differentially expressed spots were in-gel digested with trypsin and identified by LC-MS/MS. Data were used to search the Swiss-Prot protein database.

Project description:Conditional knockout of the transcription factor Ronin (Thap11) in retinal progenitor cells (RPCs) results in a profound failure cell proliferation resulting in a hypoplastic adult retina that also suffers from photoreceptor degeneration. The goal of this study was to determine which genes are deregulated in response to loss of Ronin transcription factor activity in the developing retina. We generated Ronin flox/flox (Control) and Chx10-Cre::GFP+/tg; Ronin flox/flox (CKO) mice, in which Ronin loss occurs specifically within RPCs, and performed RNA-Seq analysis of embryonic day E14.5 (E14.5) retinae. Three independent pools of control and Ronin CKO retinae were collected consisting of a minimum of 10 retinae per pool and total RNA was extracted followed by polyA selection, fractionation (200-500 nucleotide range) and generation of cDNA. The resulting DNA was then used for standard Illumina adaptor ligation and sequencing. This experiment revealed decreased expression of a large group of mitochondrial genes including components of the electron transport chain (ETC), which have been recently implicated as direct regulators of the cell cycle.

Project description:Photoreceptor cell death is a major cause of incurable vision loss in retinal degeneration, with little to no treatment options available. To identify drug candidates to maintain photoreceptor survival, we performed an unbiased high-throughput screening of over 6,000 bioactive small molecules using retinal organoids differentiated from induced pluripotent stem cells of rd16 mice, which phenocopy Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA) 10 caused by CEP290 mutations. Five positive hits including the lead compound Reserpine were further validated by the improvement of photoreceptor maintenance and survival in organoid cultures and in vivo retina. Subsequent investigation revealed misregulation of autophagy in degenerative retina, which is associated with compromised primary cilium biogenesis. Reserpine largely restored the balance between autophagy and the ubiquitin-proteasome system, and improved primary cilium assembly in vitro and in vivo. This study identified effective drug candidates for treatment of retinal degeneration and highlights the impact of proteostasis in photoreceptor cell death.

Project description:In order to find out the vital genes during retinal neovascularization (RNV), we set up OIR (oxygen-induced retinopathy; induced with 75%±2% oxygen) and wild-type C57BL/6J murine models. We observed the retinal vascular growth process daily both in OIR and wild-type mice through retinal flat-mount, and isolated total retinal RNA at different time points (P8, P9, P12, P13, P30) both in OIR and wild-type mice for gene expression analysis. At least three different retinae were accessed at each time point for observing the retinal vascular growth process. Ten neural retinae from five mice were harvested and pooled into one sample for gene expression analysis. Three biological replicates were used for each time point. Dye-swaps were performed.

Project description:During vertebrate retinogenesis, the precise balance between retinoblast proliferation and differentiation is spatially and temporally regulated through a number of intrinsic factors and extrinsic signaling pathways. Moreover, there are complex gene regulatory network interactions between these intrinsic factors and extrinsic pathways, which ultimately function to determine when retinoblasts exit the cell cycle and terminally differentiate. We recently uncovered a cell non-autonomous role for the intrinsic HLH factor, Id2a, in regulating retinoblast proliferation and differentiation, with Id2a-deficient retinae containing an abundance of proliferative retinoblasts and an absence of terminally differentiated retinal neurons and glia. Here, we report that Id2a function is necessary and sufficient to limit Notch pathway activity during retinogenesis. Id2a-deficient retinae possess elevated levels of Notch pathway component gene expression, while retinae overexpressing id2a possess reduced expression of Notch pathway component genes. Attenuation of Notch signaling activity by DAPT or by morpholino knockdown of Notch1a is sufficient to rescue both the proliferative and differentiation defects in Id2a-deficient retinae. In addition to regulating Notch pathway activity, through an RNA-Seq and differential gene expression analysis of Id2a-deficient retinae, we identify a number of additional intrinsic and extrinsic regulatory pathway components whose expression is regulated by Id2a. These data highlight the integral role played by Id2a in the gene regulatory network governing the transition from retinoblast proliferation to terminal differentiation during vertebrate retinogenesis. Two biological replicates for both Id2aMM and Id2aMO samples

Project description:Mutations in IQCB1/NPHP5 gene encoding the ciliary protein Nephrocystin 5 cause early-onset blinding disease Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA), together with kidney dysfunction in Senior-Løken Syndrome. For in vitro disease modeling, we obtained dermal fibroblasts from NPHP5-LCA patients, which were reprogrammed into induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and differentiated into retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and retinal organoids. Patient fibroblasts and RPE demonstrated aberrantly elongated ciliary axonemes. Organoids revealed impaired development of outer segment structures, which are modified primary cilia, and mislocalization of visual pigments to photoreceptor cell soma. All patient-derived cells showed reduced levels of CEP290 protein, a critical cilia transition zone component interacting with NPHP5, providing a plausible mechanism for aberrant ciliary gating and cargo transport. Disease phenotype in NPHP5-LCA retinal organoids could be rescued by AAV-mediated NPHP5 gene augmentation therapy. Our studies thus establish a human disease model and a path for treatment of NPHP5-LCA.
