Molecular profiling of the developing lacrimal gland

ABSTRACT: Although normal function of the lacrimal gland (LG) is essential for vision (and thus, for human well-being), the LG remains rather poorly understood at molecular level. The purpose of this study was to identify new genes and signaling cascades involved in LG development.

Transcription profiling of rat lacrimal gland samples from normal, sham and operated animals

Project description:Previous studies showed that loss of muscarinic parasympathetic input to the lacrimal gland (LG) leads to a dramatic reduction in tear secretion and profound changes to LG structure. In this study, we used DNA microarrays to examine the regulation of the gene expression of the genes for secretory function and organization of the LG. Long-Evans rats anesthetized with a mixture of ketamine/xylazine (80:10 mg/kg) underwent unilateral sectioning of the greater superficial petrosal nerve, the input to the pterygopalatine ganglion. After 7 days, tear secretion was measured, the animals were killed, and structural changes in the LG were examined by light microscopy. Total RNA from control and experimental LGs (n = 5) was used for DNA microarray analysis employing the U34A GeneChip. Control rat lacrimal gland samples representing a normal unoperated, a sham, and paired contralateral controls. Experimental LG samples representing paired and unpaired contralateral controls. Paired contralateral control LGs represent LG from the same animal, one side was operated and the other side unoperated.

Human Lacrimal Gland Gene Expression

Project description:Background: The study of human lacrimal gland biology and development is limited. Lacrimal gland tissue is damaged or poorly functional in a number of disease states including dry eye disease. Development of cell based therapies for lacrimal gland diseases requires a better understanding of the gene expression and signaling pathways in lacrimal gland. Differential gene expression analysis between lacrimal gland and other embryologically similar tissues may be helpful in furthering our understanding of lacrimal gland development. Methods: We performed global gene expression analysis of human lacrimal gland tissue using Affymetrix ® gene expression arrays. Primary data from our laboratory was compared with datasets available in the NLM GEO database for other surface ectodermal tissues including salivary gland, skin, conjunctiva and corneal epithelium. Results: The analysis revealed statistically significant difference in the gene expression of lacrimal gland tissue compared to other ectodermal tissues. The lacrimal gland specific, cell surface secretory protein encoding genes and critical signaling pathways which distinguish lacrimal gland from other ectodermal tissues are described. Conclusions: Differential gene expression in human lacrimal gland compared with other ectodermal tissue types revealed interesting patterns which may serve as the basis for future studies in directed differentiation among other areas.

The first transcriptomic atlas of the adult lacrimal gland reveals epithelial complexity and identifies novel progenitor cells in mice

Project description:The lacrimal gland (LG) secretes aqueous tears. Previous studies have provided insights into the cell lineage relationships during tissue morphogenesis. However, little is known about the cell types composing the adult LG and their progenitors. Using scRNA-seq, we established the first comprehensive cell atlas of the adult mouse LG to investigate cell hierarchy, their secretory repertoire and sex differences.

Comparison of embryonic samples (E18) vs. adult (34 weeks old) lacrimal gland transcriptome

Project description:As an element of the lacrimal apparatus, the lacrimal gland (LG) produces the aqueous part of the tear film, which protects the eye surface. Therefore, a defective LG can lead to serious eyesight impairment. Up to now, little is known about LG morphogenesis and subsequent maturation. In this study, we delineated elements of the cellular and molecular events involved in LG formation by using three epithelial markers, namely aSMA, Krt14 andKrt19. While aSMA marked a restricted epithelial population of the terminal end buds (TEBs) in the forming LG, Krt14 was found in the whole embryonic LG epithelial basal cell layer. Interestingly, Krt19 specifically labelled the presumptive ductal domain and subsequently, the luminal cell layer. By combining these markers, the Fucci reporter mouse strain and genetic fate mapping of the Krt14+ population, we demonstrated that LG epithelium expansion is fueled by a patterned cell proliferation, and to a lesser extent by epithelial reorganization and possible mesenchymal-to-epithelial transition. We pointed out that this epithelial reorganization, which is associated with apoptosis, regulated the lumen formation. Finally, we showed that the Notch signalling inhibition prevented the ductal identity from setting, and leads to a LG covered by ectopic TEBs. Taken together our results bring a deeper understanding on LG morphogenesis, epithelial domain identity, and organ expansion.

miR-205 is a critical regulator of lacrimal gland development

Project description:Tears are essential for the maintenance of the terrestrial animal ocular surface and the lacrimal gland is the source of the aqueous layer of the tear film. Despite the importance of the lacrimal gland in ocular health, molecular aspects of its development remain poorly understood. We have identified a noncoding RNA (miR-205) as an essential gene for lacrimal gland development. Knockout mice lacking miR-205 fail to develop lacrimal glands, establishing this noncoding RNA as a key regulator of lacrimal bud initiation. RNA-seq analysis uncovered several up-regulated miR-205 targets, including Inppl1, a negative regulator of Akt signaling. Data indicate that Akt signaling is required within lacrimal gland epithelia and is activated by Fgf10. Furthermore, combinatorial epistatic deletion of Fgf10 and miR-205 in mice exacerbates the lacrimal gland phenotype. We develop a molecular rheostat model where miR-205 modulates signaling pathways downstream of Fgf10 to regulate glandular development. These data show that a single microRNA is a key regulator for lacrimal gland initiation in mice and highlights the important role of microRNAs during organogenesis.
