Effects of dexamethasone stimulation on gene expression in human trabecular meshwork cells

ABSTRACT: The changes in the trabecular meshwork in steroid-induced glaucoma are similar to those in human primary open-angle glaucoma. To explore the changes in the trabecular meshwork in POAG, we extracted RNA from human trabecular meshwork cells with or without dexamethasone, followed by next-generation transcriptome sequencing to observe changes in gene expression in trabecular meshwork cells, thereby better understanding the mechanism of increased IOP.

Genome-wide Expression of Trabecular Meshwork in POAG

Project description:This study compared genome-wide expression profiles of individuals with and without Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma (POAG). One POAG case (case #6 with two replicates #10 and #11) carried a Q368X myocilin mutation. This study compared the genome-wide expression in human trabecular meshwork tissue between 13 controls and 15 POAG cases. Six controls and one POAG cases had the expression performed from both left and right eyes. One technical replicate was done between two cases. The average from the biological replicates for each inidividual was used for analysis.

RNA-Seq Transcriptomic Analysis of Human Trabecular Meshwork Explants Exposed to TGF-β2: A Novel Approach Beyond Traditional Cell Culture Models

Project description:Glaucoma is a progressive optic neuropathy that can lead to irreversible blindness. Its main risk factor is elevated intraocular pressure (IOP). The trabecular meshwork (TM) acts as a filter between the anterior chamber of the eye and the aqueous humor collecting ducts, and dysfunction of this meshwork is responsible for the increased IOP in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). Considering that the culture conditions of human TM cells (HTMC) influence gene expression, we used human TM explants (HTMEx), which most closely mimic physiological conditions, to study the transcriptome of HTMC. The transforming growth factor-beta 2 (TGF-β2) signaling pathway has been implicated in the pathophysiology of POAG. To better characterize the role of TGF-β2 in this pathophysiology, we used bulk RNA sequencing and immunohistological analyses to establish gene signatures of TGF-β2-exposed HTMEx and correlate them with morphological alterations. We identified differentially upregulated genes primarily involved in ECM regulation, as well as profibrotic TGF-β signaling pathways, confirmed using confocal microscopy to highlight changes in trabecular architecture, TGFβ2-induced F-actin rearrangements, and extracellular matrix (ECM) deposition. Enrichment analysis also revealed modulations of gene expression related to cytoskeletal organization, as well as activation of the bone morphogenic protein (BMP) and Wnt signaling pathways in response to TGF-β2.

Transcription profiling of human trabecular meshwork cells after TGF-beta1 and 2 treatment

Project description:TGF-beta levels are known to increase in the aqueous humor of eye cells in patients with glaucoma. Increase TGF-beta is assumed to have a biochemical impact on the trabecular meshwork, and an increase in extracellular matrix formation, which may be responsible for decrease outflow facility of the eye. This may increase extracellular pressure, causing glaucoma. TGF-beta 1 may be the cause of abnormal accumulation of extracellular matrices in trabecular meshwork of eyes with primary open angle glaucoma. Transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta2 regulates the expression of proteoglycans in aqueous humor from human glaucomatous eyes. To identify gene expression changes as a result of TGF-beta1 and 2 treatment of human trabecular meshwork cells. We expect to see a change in expression of the proteoglycans in HTM cells as a response to TGF-beta treatment. Human Trabecular Meswork cells in the eye were bathed by aqueous humor. TM cells were removed from individuals with the following ages: 16,66,67,73, and 76. Each individual was treated with EtOH (control), TGF-beta1, or TGF-beta2. Total RNA from each individual was pooled for each chip. Technical replicates were created for each treatment type, for a total of 6 chips.

Effects of dexamethasone for primary trabecular meshwork cell gene expression

Project description:To clarify the effects of dexamethasone treatment for primary trabecular meshwork cell gene expression, which may relates to the pathophysiology of glucocorticoid-induced glaucoma Three lots (lot #2584, 3423 and 4973) of primary culture human trabecular meshwork (TM) cells were purchased from ScienCell Research Laboratories (Carlsbad, CA). The TM cells were treated with and without 100nM dexamethasone (DEX) for 14 days. Genomewide gene expression analysis was carried out using Agilent 8X60K array.

Dexamethasone induced gene expression changes in the human trabecular meshwork

Project description:One of the undesirable side effects of glucocorticoid use is the potential development of elevated intraocular pressure and glaucoma. The precise mechanisms through which steroid use induces ocular hypertension are unclear. The purpose of this study was to identify gene expression changes induced by steroids in the human trabecular meshwork and the underlying sclerocorneal tissue.
