Gene expression in human corneal epithelial cells without or with Wnk inhibitor

ABSTRACT: In the present study, we investigated the molecular mechanisms by which Wnk contributes to human corneal epithelial wound healing. To better understand the process, we cultivated human corneal epithelial cells without or with Wnk inhibitor. Using gene profiling, we compared the mRNA profiles of passage 3 human corneal epithelial cells cultivated without Wnk inhibitor with passage 3 human corneal epithelial cells cultivated with Wnk inhibitor. Human corneal epithelial cells are isolated from eye bank donor corneas.

Gene expression in Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy and healthy cultured cells

Project description:Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) is a vision impairing pathology affecting the endothelial cells of the cornea. To better understand the disease, we developed a method to cultivate FECD cells isolated from surgical specimens. Using gene profiling, we compared the mRNA profiles of passage 2 FECD cells with passage 2 non-pathological corneal endothelial cells isolated from eye bank donor corneas.

The tissue-engineered human cornea as a model to study expression of matrix metalloproteinases during corneal wound healing

Project description:Corneal injuries remain a major cause of consultation in the ophthalmology clinics worldwide. Repair of corneal wounds is a complex mechanism that involves cell death, migration, proliferation, differentiation, and extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling. In the present study, we used a tissue-engineered, two-layers (epithelium and stroma) human cornea as a biomaterial to study both the cellular and molecular mechanisms of wound healing. Gene profiling on microarrays revealed important alterations in the pattern of genes expressed by tissue-engineered corneas in response to wound healing. Expression of many MMPs-encoding genes was shown by microarray and qPCR analyses to increase in the migrating epithelium of wounded corneas. Many of these enzymes were converted into their enzymatically active form as wound closure proceeded. In addition, expression of MMPs by human corneal epithelial cells (HCECs) was affected both by the stromal fibroblasts and the collagen-enriched ECM they produce. Most of all, results from mass spectrometry analyses provided evidence that a fully stratified epithelium is required for proper synthesis and organization of the ECM on which the epithelial cells adhere. In conclusion, and because of the many characteristics it shares with the native cornea, this human two layers corneal substitute may prove particularly useful to decipher the mechanistic details of corneal wound healing. Primary cultures of human corneal epithelial cells cultivated on BSA (number of replicates: 7), Collagen type I (number of replicates: 2), Collagen type IV (number of replicates: 2), Fibronectin (number of replicates: 2), Tenascin C (number of replicates: 2) and Laminin (number of replicates: 2) matrix.

Gene Expression Profiling in Spontaneous Corneal Degeneration in Mice

Project description:When recruiting Balb/c mice for projects concerning corneas, we found that some mice presented corneal abnormality mimicking human corneal degenerations. The mice were unilaterally or bilaterally affected. The corneas of unilaterally affected mice were collected and pooled respectively into Normal and Degenerative samples. RNA was prepared and subjected to dual-labeling microarray analysis using the Capital Bio work station. Spontaneously degenerative corneas vs nomal corneas from same unilaterally affected mice. Dye swap was applied to reduce systemic error.

Genome-wide transcriptional analysis of flagellin induced reprogramming in mouse corneal epithelial cells in response to Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Project description:We previously showed that pre-exposure of the cornea to TLR5 ligand flagellin induces profound mucosal innate protection against pathogenic microbes by reprogramming gene expression. To date, there was no genome-wide cDNA array to detect full scale of flagellin mediated reprogramming of gene expression in mucosal surface epithelial cells. Taking advantage of readily accessible, easily procurable epithelial cell population, this study is the first report to use genome-wide cDNA microarray approach to document genes associated with flagellin-induced protection against Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection in corneal epithelial cells (CECs). Total RNA obtained from isolated mouse corneal epithelial cells of the control (cells scrapped off from the corneas without infection), Pseudomonas aeruginosa infected (6 h post infection) and flagellin pretreated (24 h), followed by Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection (6 h).

High throughput gene expression analysis identifies reliable expression markers of human corneal endothelial cells.

Project description:Considerable interest has been generated for the development through cell-tissue engineering of suitable corneal endothelial graft alternatives, which can potentially alleviate the shortage of corneal transplant material. The advent of less invasive suture-less key-hole surgery options such as DescemetM-bM-^@M-^Ys Stripping Endothelial Keratoplasty (DSEK) and DescemetM-bM-^@M-^Ys Membrane Endothelial Keratoplasty (DMEK), which involve transplantation of solely the endothelial layer instead of full thickness cornea, provide further impetus for the development of alternative endothelial grafts for clinical applications. A major challenge for this endeavor is the lack of specific markers for this cell type. To identify genes that reliably mark corneal endothelial cells (CECs) in vivo and in vitro, we performed RNA-sequencing on freshly isolated human CECs (from both young and old donors), CEC cultures, and corneal stroma. Gene expression of these corneal cell types were also compared to that of other human tissue types. Based on high throughput comparative gene expression analysis, we identified a panel of markers that are: i) highly expressed in CECs from both young donors and old donors; ii) expressed in CECs in vivo and in vitro; and iii) not expressed in corneal stroma keratocytes and the activated corneal stroma fibroblasts. These were SLC4A11, COL8A2 and CYYR1. The use of this panel of genes in combination reliably ascertains the identity of the CEC cell type. A total of 20 donor corneas consisting of 10 single donor corneas and 5 paired donor corneas were used in this study. Donor age ranged from 19 - 76. This RNA-seq study included 15 pooled corneas (5 each) used form CEC old, CEC young and stroma samples.

Corneal protome of trangenic TGFBI R124H mouse model

Project description:In this study we analysed the proteome of transforming growth factor β-induced protein (TGFBIp) R124H transgenic mouse corneas in an attempt to understand the disease mechanisms leading to the granular corneal dystrophy type 2. The transgenic mouse model was generated by insertion of human TGFBI cDNA with the R124H mutation into the first exon of the mouse TGFBI DNA generating the transgenic TGFBIR124H mouse model We compared the corneal proteome of three wild-type, heterozygous, and homozygous mice of different genders, which were age-matched and analysed the proteolytic processing and relative amount of TGFBIp. No protein deposits were observed in the investigated corneas.

Human corneal epithelial cells internalize Aspergillus flavus spores by actin mediated endocytosis

Project description:Mycotic leratitis is the corneal inflammation predominantly caused by Fusarium and Aspergillus species. Corneal epithelium is the earliest cell type encounter the invading pathogen. The innate immune responses of human corneal epithelial cells against Aspergillus flavus is not known. Here we studied the role of human corneal epithelial cells against Aspergillus flavus infection. The results showed that corneal epithelial cells internalized Aspergillus flavus conidia through actin mediated polymerization surrounding the conidia. Further the actin inhibitor cytochalasin D treatment reduced the formation actin ring around the conidia. The engulfed conidia acquired endosomal proteins as revealed by immunofluorescence analsyisis. Mass spectromtery of phagosomal proteins confirmed the recruitment of endosomal proteins and other proteins involved in phagocytosis. These results show the involvement of corneal epithelial cells in anti fungal defense.
