Project description:We show that Retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) secreted-factor, pigment epithelium derived factor (PEDF) secreted/derived from primary or iPSC-derived retinal pigment epithelium (RPE)RPE, dramatically inhibitsed the cell growth of iPSCs. PEDF was detected abundantly in culture supernatant media of primary and iPSC-derived RPE. We examined the gene expression in primary RPE and iPS-derived RPE. Two samples: RPE derived from 253G1 iPSC, Primary RPE.

Project description:Retinal Pigment Epithelial (RPE) cells are located behind the retina and are critical for photoreceptor survival. Loss of RPE is associated with several pathogenic conditions such as Age Related Macular Degeneration and Retinitis Pigmentosa. RPE derived from human embryonic stem cells (hESC) offer a potential source for producing these cells for therapy. Here we report the molecular and cellular characterization of RPE differentiated from hESC. hESC derived RPE are capable of proliferation and lose their epithelial characteristics before becoming confluent and re-differentiating back into their typical pigmented, cobblestoned appearance. During the proliferative phase, they adopt a mesenchymal morphology and express mesenchymal markers. Our results demonstrate that this apparent Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition is not regulated by the classical EMT transcription factors SNAIL and SLUG. Furthermore, it is possible to regulate RPE de-differentiation and re-differentiation by modulating the Wnt and BMP pathway respectively. These findings further our understanding of the genesis and expansion of RPE which is essential for their therapeutic use.

Project description:Purpose: The retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) forms the outer blood-retinal barrier. Primary cultures of RPE can model the barrier, but are very sensitive to culture conditions. We examined how the neural retina regulates the RPE transcriptome in a culture model of embryonic development. Attention focused on the tight junctional genes essential for barrier function. Methods: Chick RPE from embryonic day 7 (E7) or embryonic day 14 (E14) was cultured on filters in a serum free medium. Media conditioned by organ culture of neural retinas was applied to the apical surface of the cultured RPE. Fetal bovine serum (2%) was included in some experiments. When the transepithelial electrical resistance (TER) reached a plateau, total RNA was isolated to probe the chick genome on Affymetrix microarrays. The expression tight junctional mRNAs was confirmed by real-time PCR and immunoblotting the protein. Results: The TER was slightly increased by serum, but increased 2-3X by retinal conditioned medium. Serum diminished the effect of retinal conditioned medium. In basal conditions, 86% of the transcriptome expressed during development in vivo was also expressed in culture. Approximately 5% of the transcriptome expressed in culture was absent in vivo. E14 retinal conditioned medium affected 15% of the transcriptome in E7 cultures (24% if serum was included), but only 1.9% in E14 cultures (12% with serum). Examination of 610 genes important for RPE function revealed that mRNAs for 17% were regulated by retinal conditioned medium alone in E7 cultures, compared to 6.2% for E14. For tight junctions, retinal conditioned medium had the most affect on members of the claudin family. These results were confirmed by quantitative real-time PCR. Besides regulating mRNA levels, immunoblotting and immunocytochemistry suggested additional mechanisms whereby retinal secretions regulated protein expression and localization. Conclusions: Gene expression in primary cultures of embryonic RPE resembled the native tissue, but expression, and differentiation, is improved when elements of the normal extracellular environment are replicated in culture. For a small group of proteins, retinal secretions were required to maintain in vivo-like expression in culture. Albeit insufficient, retinal secretions promoted differentiation of immature RPE and helped maintain the properties of more mature RPE. Experiment Overall Design: RPE were isolated from chicken embryos on embryonic day 7 or 14 and cultured, as described <Rahner C, Fukuhara M, Peng S, Kojima S, Rizzolo LJ. The apical and basal environments of the retinal pigment epithelium regulate the maturation of tight junctions during development. J Cell Sci. 2004;117:3307-18>. E7 is when tight junctions of the RPE begin to form; E14 is when tight junctions achieve their mature morphological appearance in vivo. The cells were cultured in medium that contains or lacks E14 retinal conditioned medium. Because serum inhibits the effect of retinal conditioned medium, serum was added to some cultures, resulting in 4 culture conditions for each age. To isolate total RNA, the RNeasy Protect kit (Qiagen) was used according to the manufacturer's protocols. For each culture, 3 independent preparations were used for analysis on Affymetrix microarrays of the chicken genome (Santa Clara, CA). The quality of the total RNA was assessed by the Keck Center, Yale University using formamide gels and a 2100 Bioanalyzer (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, CA)

Project description:Compare transcriptomes of control and USH1B patient iPSC-derived retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) to elucidate disease mechanisms of Usher syndrome type IB (USH1B). USH1B patient fibroblasts were collected at Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH) and reprogrammed to iPSCs. Control and patient iPSCs differentiated in vitro to generate retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and collected for RNA-seq at 24 week. Sequencing was performed at University College London (UCL) Genomics on a NovaSeq 6000 system. Data aligned to the human genome UCSC hg38 using RNA-STAR 2.5.2b.

Project description:The plasticity of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) has been observed during proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR), a defective repair process in humans. In contrast, in the embryonic chick, the RPE can be efficiently reprogrammed to regenerate a complete neural retina after surgical removal and when supplied an exogenous source of FGF2. Here, we analyzed discrete RPE cell populations during early times of transiently reprogrammed (RPE 6 hours post-retinectomy) and reprogrammed (RPE 6 hours post-retinectomy and FGF2 treatment) cells, using laser capture microdissection followed by RNA sequencing (LCM-seq) and computational analysis.

Project description:To investigate transcriptomic changes that facilitate the reprogramming of retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells to neural retina, chicken RPE explants were cultured for 24 or 48 hours in the presence or absence of the reprogramming factor FGF2. To further interrogate the metabolic requirements of reprogramming, RPE explants were additionally cultured in the presence of the pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase inhibitor dichloroacetate in the presence or absence of FGF2.

Project description:We generated hiPSCs from patients fibloblast with retinitis pigmentosa (RP) using retrovirus and Sendai virus vectors, which we differentiated into hiPSC derived retinal pigment epithelium using two different methods (SDIA and SFEB methods). We investigated whether these hiPSC-RPE colonies, which were differentiated from various cell lines and methods, showed similar gene expression patterns to those of native RPE. We classified hiPSC-RPE, hiPSCs, and fibroblasts from RP patients, hRPE (commercially available human fetal RPE, Lonza) , ARPE19 (a human RPE cell line), and other human tissues from 54,675 probe sets using microarray data.
