Project description:Retinal degeneration is the leading cause of irreversible blindness. Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is a genetically heterogenous group of diseases. In the United States, approximately one in 4000 individuals is affected. RP begins with the loss of night vision due to the loss of rod photoreceptor cells. The disease progresses slowly with the loss of peripheral vision, and eventually leads to complete debilitating and irreversible blindness. The first mutation associated with human RP was identified in the gene encoding rhodopsin, the G-protein coupled receptor of rod photoreceptor cells. Mutations within the rhodopsin gene account for significant portion of RP cases. Specifically, mutations of the proline at residue 347 in rhodopsin have been linked to human RP.

Project description:Mammalian cells are commonly employed to identify active compounds that could affect progression of many human diseases including retinitis pigmentosa. Here, using transcriptome analysis to compare NIH3T3 cells expressing rod opsin with the disease-causing a single point P23H mutation, we differentiated between genes affected by heterologous opsin expression and those influenced by the P23H opsin mutant gain- or loss-of-function. Surprisingly, heterologous expression of normal opsin causes changes in 783 out of 16888 protein coding transcripts more than 1 fragments per kilobase of transcript per million mapped reads (FPKM) in NIH3T3 cells despite that opsin is exogenous to this cell. The perturbed genes are involved in cell adhesion, morphology and migration and encode extracellular matrix proteins, growth factors, cytoskeleton proteins, glycoproteins or metalloproteases. Not fully overlapping 347 differentially expressed genes were affected when the P23H mutant opsin was expressed. Transcriptome perturbation by individual drug candidates also revealed that different active compounds can target distinct molecular pathways that result in a similar phenotype selected by a cell-based high throughput screen. This transcriptome approach is capable of detecting minute changes in the transcriptome and can be a key to therapeutic success of a candidate drug to restore the normal gene expression landscape in affected tissue.

Project description:Rhodopsin (RHO) mutations such as Pro23His, are the leading cause of dominantly inherited retinitis pigmentosa in North America. As with other dominant retinal dystrophies, these mutations lead to production of a toxic protein product, and treatment will require knockdown of the mutant allele. The purpose of this study was to develop a CRISPR-Cas9-mediated transcriptional repression strategy using catalytically inactive S. aureus Cas9 (dCas9) fused to the Krüppel-associated box (KRAB) transcriptional repressor domain. Using a reporter construct carrying GFP cloned downstream of the RHO promoter fragment (nucleotides -1403 to +73), we demonstrate a ~74%-84% reduction in RHO promoter activity in RHOpCRISPRi treated vs plasmid only controls. Following subretinal transduction of human retinal explants and transgenic Pro23His mutant pigs, significant knockdown of rhodopsin protein was achieved. Suppression of mutant transgene in vivo was associated with a reduction in ER-stress and apoptosis markers and preservation of photoreceptor cell layer thickness.

Project description:The goal of the study was to identify transcriptional modifications in retinal tissues from mouse model of rhodopsin mutation-associated retinitis pigmentosa (RP), Q344X compared to wild-type (WT). We implemented RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) at poly(A) selected RNA for transcriptomic profiling. Differentially expressed genes were determined by DESeq2 using the Benjamini & Hochberg p-value adjustment and an absolute log2 fold change cutoff. The results indicate that there is specificity in transcriptional patterns in the retina from Q344x mice relative to WT, including differential expression in the potassium channel gene, Kcnv2, and differential expression in histone genes including the H1 family histone member, H1foo, the H3 histone family 3B, H3f3b, and the histone deacetylase 9, Hdac9.

In the United States, approximately one in 4000 individuals is affected. RP begins with the loss of night vision due to the loss of rod photoreceptor cells. The disease progresses slowly with the loss of peripheral vision, and eventually leads to complete debilitating and irreversible blindness. The first mutation associated with human RP was identified in the gene encoding rhodopsin, the G-protein coupled receptor of rod photoreceptor cells. Mutations within the rhodopsin gene account for significant portion of RP cases. Specifically, mutations of the proline at residue 347 in rhodopsin have been linked to human RP. We are fortunate to have access to the P347S rhodopsin mutant mice. These mice represent an excellent transgenic mouse model of retinal degeneration. The P347S rhodopsin mutation is one of the best studied mutations, yet the mechanism by which the mutation causes degeneration is still unknown. One study has demonstrated that galectin-1 plays a role in degeneration of neuronal processes (1) and another study has shown that expression level of galectin-3 is elevated in retinas of patients with age-related macular degeneration. These studies in conjunction with the availibility of the P347S mutant mice have provided impetus to examine the pathogenesis of retinal degeneration in the context of the possible role of glycans and glycan-binding proteins. The time course of photoreceptor degeneration in the P347S mouse model has been carefully studied. In these mice, degeneration is barely detectable at 1 month of age, yet biochemical evidence suggests that the rod photoreceptor cells have already begun to die. At 4 months of age, approximately half of the rod photoreceptor cells have degenerated. To distinguish involvement of glycogens at the various stages of retinal degeneration, we have collected retinas of wild type and the mutant mice at four time points (1, 2, 3, and 4 months of age). This will allow us to identify the genes that target early, mid- and late stages of the retinal degeneration process. Thus we request the analysis of total 24 samples as specified below: Age Group (months) Mice No of samples at each time point 1 Wild type 3 2 Wild type 3 3 Wild type 3 4 Wild type 3 1 P347S 3 2 P347S 3 3 P347S 3 4 P347S 3 Total 24.

Project description:Recessive retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is often caused by nonsense mutations that lead to low mRNA levels as a result of nonsense-mediated decay. Some RP genes are expressed at detectable levels in leukocytes as well as in the retina. We designed a microarray-based method to find recessive RP genes based on low lymphoblast mRNA expression levels Keywords: Recessive mutations; mRNA expression; nonsense mediated-decay; retinitis pigmentosa; lymphocyte; Affymetrix genechip Human Genome U133Plus2.0.
