Project description:<p>Proper spatial differentiation of retinal cell types is necessary for normal human vision. Many retinal diseases, such as Best disease and male germ cell associated kinase (MAK)-associated retinitis pigmentosa, preferentially affect distinct topographic regions of the retina. While much is known about the distribution of cell types in the retina, the distribution of molecular components across the posterior pole of the eye has not been well-studied. To investigate regional difference in molecular composition of ocular tissues, we assessed differential gene expression across the temporal, macular, and nasal retina and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE)/choroid of human eyes using RNA-Seq. RNA from temporal, macular, and nasal retina and RPE/choroid from four human donor eyes was extracted, poly-A selected, fragmented, and sequenced as 100 bp read pairs. Digital read files were mapped to the human genome and analyzed for differential expression using the Tuxedo software suite. Retina and RPE/choroid samples were clearly distinguishable at the transcriptome level. Numerous transcription factors were differentially expressed between regions of the retina and RPE/choroid. Photoreceptor-specific genes were enriched in the peripheral samples, while ganglion cell and amacrine cell genes were enriched in the macula. Within the RPE/choroid, RPE-specific genes were upregulated at the periphery while endothelium associated genes were upregulated in the macula. Consistent with previous studies, BEST1 expression was lower in macular than extramacular regions. The MAK gene was expressed at lower levels in macula than in extramacular regions, but did not exhibit a significant difference between nasal and temporal retina. The regional molecular distinction is greatest between macula and periphery and decreases between different peripheral regions within a tissue. Datasets such as these can be used to prioritize candidate genes for possible involvement in retinal diseases with regional phenotypes. </p> <p>Reprinted from <a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=25446321">Whitmore, S.S., Wagner, A.H., DeLuca, A.P., Drack, A.V., Stone, E.M., Tucker, B.A., Zeng, S., Braun, T.A., Mullins, R.F., Scheetz, T.E., 2014.

Project description:The principal aim of this work was to investigate the methylation profiles of specific ocular tissues, and compare this profile to matched peripheral blood. Matched human blood and eye tissue were obtained post-mortem (n=8) and DNA methylation profiling performed on blood, neurosensory retina, retinal pigment epithelium (RPE)/choroid and optic nerve tissue using the Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation450 platform.

Project description:PURPOSE To identify retinal pigment epithelial (RPE)/choroid genes and their relevant expression pathways affected by intravitreal injections of dexamethasone and triamcinolone acetonide in mice at clinically relevant time points for patient care. METHODS Differential gene expression of over 34,000 well-characterized mouse genes, in the RPE/choroid of 6 week old C57BL/6J mice were analyzed after intravitreal steroid injections at 1 week and 1 month post injection, using Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 microarrays. The data were analyzed using GeneSpringGX12.5 and Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) microarray analysis software for biologically relevant changes. RESULTS Both triamcinolone and dexamethasone caused differential activation of genes involved in âCircadian Rhythm Signalingâ pathway at both time points tested. Triamcinolone (TAA) uniquely induced significant changes in gene expression in âCalcium Signalingâ (1 week) and âGlutamate Signalingâ pathways (1month). In contrast, Dexamethasone (Dex) affected the âGABA Receptor Signalingâ (1 week) and âSerotonin Receptor Signalingâ (1month) pathways. CONCLUSIONS Understanding how intraocular steroids affect the gene expression of RPE/choroid is clinically relevant. This in vivo study has elucidated several genes and pathways that are potentially altering the circadian rhythms and several other neurotransmitter pathways in RPE/choroid cells during intravitreal steroid injections, which likely has consequences in the dysregulation of RPE function and neurodegeneration of the retina. Total of 18 RPE/choroid samples were analysed. There were two time points, day7 and day30. Each time point had three groups: BSS control, DEX treatment and TAA treatment. Each group had three biological replicas.

Project description:The iris is a fine structure that controls the amount of light that enters the eye. The ciliary body controls the shape of the lens and produces aqueous humor. The retinal pigment epithelium and choroid (RPE/choroid) are essential in supporting the retina and absorbing light energy that enters the eye. Proteins were extracted from iris, ciliary body, and RPE/choroid tissues of eyes from five individuals and fractionated using SDS-PAGE. After in-gel digestion, peptides were analyzed using LC-MS/MS on an Orbitrap Elite mass spectrometer. In iris, ciliary body, and RPE/choroid, we identified 2,959, 2,867, and 2,755 non-redundant proteins with protein false positive rate <1%. There were 43 unambiguous protein isoforms identified in iris, ciliary body, and RPE/choroid. Four “missing proteins” were found in ciliary body. The MS proteome database of the human iris, ciliary body, and RPE/choroid may serve as a valuable resource for future investigations of the eye in health and disease. The mass spectrometry proteomics data have been deposited to the ProteomeXchange Consortium via the PRIDE partner repository with the dataset identifier PXD001424.

Project description:This experiment analyzes the mirnome of 16 retina samples and 2 Retinal Pigment Epithelium (RPE)/choroid from non-visually impaired post-mortem donors, by using smallRNAseq on a Illumina platform. The aim was to establish the catalogue of normal retina-expressed miRNAs, determine their relative abundance, and identify miRNA variants (isomiRs).

Project description:Histones are pivotal carriers of epigenetic information through post-translational modifications (PTMs), crucial for regulating gene expression, proper cellular function and maintaining cell identity. Perturbations in histone levels within the aging genome can profoundly impact chromatin structure and gene expression profiles. In this study, we examined the effects of age-related changes on histone levels and histone acetylation in the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and retina of mice. Our findings revealed a global reduction in histones H1, H2A, H2B, H3, and H4 within the aged RPE/choroid, while the neural retina remained unaffected. Transcriptome analysis unveiled a significant downregulation of histone genes in the aged RPE/choroid, including key components of the histone locus body (HLB) complex involved in histone pre-mRNA processing. Knockdown of HINFP, a critical HLB component, in human RPE cells resulted in histone loss, induction of senescence, and upregulation of senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) markers. Replicative aging of human RPE cells exhibited progressive histone loss and acquisition of the SASP phenotype. Immunostaining of human retina sections demonstrated a gradual decline in histones within the aging RPE. Additionally, aging in mice RPE/choroid led to diminished global histone acetylation levels, particularly H3K14ac, H3K56ac, and H4K16ac marks. These alterations in histone acetylation were metabolically driven and correlated with changes in acetyl-CoA abundance. Collectively, our findings highlight the characteristic loss of histones as a hallmark of aging in the RPE/choroid, shedding light on potential mechanisms linking histone dynamics, cellular senescence, and age-related functional changes in RPE cells.
