Project description:Retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cell integrity is critical to the maintenance of retinal function. Many retinopathies such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD) are caused by the degeneration or malfunction of the RPE cell layer. Replacement of diseased RPE with healthy, stem cell derived RPE is a potential therapeutic strategy for treating AMD. Human embryonic stem cells (hESC) differentiated into RPE progeny have potential to provide an unlimited supply of cells for transplantation but challenges around scalability and efficiency of the differentiation process still remain. Using hESC-derived RPE as a cellular model, we sought to understand mechanisms that could be modulated to increase RPE yield following differentiation. Our data show that activation of the cAMP pathway increases proliferation of dissociated RPE in culture, in part through inhibition of TGFβ signalling. This in turn results in enhanced uptake of epithelial identity. In line with these findings, targeted manipulation of the TGFβ pathway with small molecules produces an increase in efficiency of RPE re-epithelialization. Taken together, these data highlight mechanisms that promote epithelial fate acquisition in stem cell derived RPE. Modulation of these pathways has potential to favorably impact upon scalability and clinical translation of hESC-derived RPE as a cell therapy. A sample of Gene Pool™ cDNA, from human fetal normal brain tissue (Invitrogen D8830-01) is included for reference.

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:We developed a pulse-chase method in where fully SILAC (heavy, medium-heavy and Light) labelled cells were pulsed with Azidohomoalanine (AHA) and then chased for different length of times. In addition, steady state protein levels comparing the RPE- and RPE-1 trisomic cells by standard SILAC labeling was also acquired. These datasets contain data for the human RPE-1 and RPE-1 trisomic cell lines.

Project description:Dysfunction of the retinal pigmented epithelium (RPE) results in degeneration of photoreceptors and vision loss and is correlated with common blinding disorders in humans. Although many protein-coding genes are known to be expressed in RPEs and important for their development and maintenance, virtually nothing is known about the in vivo roles of non-protein coding transcripts in RPEs. The expression patterns of microRNAs (miRNAs) have been analyzed in a variety of ocular tissues, and few were implicated to play role in RPE based on studies in cell lines. Herein, through RPE specific conditional mutagenesis of Dicer1 or DGCR8, the importance of miRNA for RPE differentiation was uncovered. Interestingly, miRNAs were found to be dispensable for maintaining the RPE fate and survival, and yet they are essential for acquisition of important RPE properties such as the expression of genes involved in the visual cycle pathway, pigmentation and cell adhesion. Importantly miRNAs of the RPE were found to be required for maturation of the adjacent photoreceptors, specifically for the morphogenesis of the outer segments. The profiles of miRNA and mRNA altered in the Dicer1 deficient RPE point to a key role of miR-204 in regulation of RPE differentiation program in vivo and uncovers the importance of additional novel RPE miRNAs. The study exposes the combined regulatory activity of miRNAs of the RPE, which is required for RPE differentiation and for the development of the adjacent neuroretina. Effect of Dicer 1 deficiency on RPE miRNA and mRNA.
