Impacts of ciliary neurotrophic factor on the retinal transcriptome in a mouse model of photoreceptor degeneration

ABSTRACT: Ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) has been tested in clinical trials for human retinal degeneration due to its potent neuroprotective effects in various animal models. To decipher CNTF-triggered molecular events in the degenerating retina, high-throughput RNA sequencing analyses were performed using the Rds/Prph2 (P216L) transgenic mouse as a preclinical model for retinitis pigmentosa. Retinal transcriptome data was obtained for untreated wild type retinas, Rds retinas treated with a lentivirus expressing CNTF from postnatal day 25 to 35, and Rds retinas similarly treated with a control lentivirus expressing GFP. Comparisons of transcriptome data detect significant changes between wild type and Rds retinas. In addition, RNA-seq data reveal elevation of transcripts in the innate immune system and growth factor signaling, as well as altered neuronal transmission and metabolism in CNTF-treated Rds retinas. These results demonstrate the influence of exogenous CNTF on the retinal transcriptome landscape and illuminate likely CNTF impacts in degenerating human retinas.

Transcription profiling of mouse rds mutant eye infected with CNTF/rAAV vs. control untreated eye

Project description:The retinal degeneration slow gene (rds/peripherin), is essential for normal photoreceptor (rods and cones) outer segment structure in the neurosensory retina. Our rds animal model, are stable transgenic mice that carry a null mutation (complete lost of function) in the rds gene. Those animals become blind, mimicking a human form of retinitis pigmentosa. In our experience we have observed dramatic levels of photoreceptor rescue after subretinal injection of those animals with a ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF) inserted into a recombinant Adeno-associate virus (rAAV) vector. However, this cell rescue is accompanied by changes in photoreceptor nuclear morphology, attenaution of the electroretinogram and evetually Apoptosis. By using Microarray analysis we hope to identify genes whose expression or lack thereof brings the cell to the brink of suicide. Identification of these genes will suggest therapeutic targets for the future. We will determine gene expression patterns in the retina of rds mice non-injected and injected with CNTF/rAAV virus after 60 days of injection. Our working hypothesis is that the injected CNTF/rAAV vector induces the expression of genes that somehow partially restores the photoreceptor morphology of rds mice. Paradoxically, it also has a negative effect on the phisiology of these cells (ERG). The up or down regulation of genes in different areas of the neurosensory retina collected by Laser Capture Microdissection will give us an insight on the relevance of candidate genes responsible for this phenomenon. We will use rds mice at age P25 and inject their rigth eye with CNTF/AVV virus (2.68x e13 particles/ml) and use the left eye as a control. Injection is performed via subretinal. Retinas will be collected at age P90 post injection. RNA will be extracted and processed accordingly for MIcroarray analysis.

Ciliary neurotrophic factor induces genes associated with inflammatory response and gliosis in the retina: A gene profiling study of flow-sorted, Muller (glial) cells

Project description:Our data suggest that CNTF remodels the transcription profile of Muller (glial) cells leading to induction of networks associated with transcription, cell cycle regulation and inflammatory response. CNTF also appears to function as an inducer of gliosis in the retina. These studies provide new insights into the biological functions of cytokines in the retina. Muller glial cells treated with CNTF for 1 and 3 days

Small RNA sequencing of LA-N-2 and LAN-5 cells exposed to ciliary neurotrophic factor for 30/60 min and 2/4 days

Project description:To examine the impact of gp130-mediated, pro-cholinergic neurokine intervention on the small RNA systems in female and male human neuronal cells, we exposed cultured LA-N-2 cells (female) to 100 ng/ml ciliary neurotrophic factor (CNTF), and LAN-5 cells (male) to 10 ng/ml CNTF. RNA sequencing of time points at 30/60 minutes and 2/4 days of CNTF exposure shows a significant response and an “immediate early”/”long term” dichotomy in differentially expressed miRNAs.

Project description:This dataset includes the proteome of ciliary ectosomes purified from the subretinal space of rds mice. The membrane purification procedure used to purify the ectosomes was also repeated in WT mice to identify contaminating material generated upon detaching retinas from eyecups.

Control vs CRB2 cKO retinas at early postnatal time points

Project description:We used microarray gene profiling to study the transcriptome of retinas lacking CRB2 during late retinal development. Unexpectedly, the retinas of newborn mice lacking CRB2 showed no changes in the transcriptome during retinal development. Comparison between Control and CRB2 null retinas at different time points (P0, P3, P6 and P10)

Protective gene expression changes elicited by an inherited defect in photoreceptor structure.

Project description:To investigate pathogenic mechanisms in such instances, we have characterized rod photoreceptor and retinal gene expression changes in response to a defined insult to photoreceptor structure, using the retinal degeneration slow (rds) mouse model. Global gene expression profiling was performed on flow-sorted rds and wild-type rod photoreceptors immediately prior and subsequent to times at which OSs are normally elaborated. Dysregulated genes were identified via microarray hybridization, and selected candidates were validated using quantitative PCR analyses. We identified a single key gene, Egr1, that was dysregulated in a sustained fashion in rds rod photoreceptors and in the retina. Egr1 upregulation was associated with microglial activation and migration, into the outer retina at times subsequent to the major peak of photoreceptor cell death. Interestingly, this response was accompanied by neurotrophic factor upregulation. We hypothesize that activation of Egr1 and neurotrophic factors represents a protective immune mechanism, contributing to the characteristically slow retinal degeneration of the rds mouse model. We had two conditions WT and Rds-KO at 4 different time points: postnatal (P) 6, P9, P14 and P21.
