Project description:While dysfunction and/or death of light-detecting photoreceptor cells underlies most inherited retinal dystrophies, knowledge of the species-specific details of human rod and cone photoreceptor cell development remains limited. Here, we generate retinal organoids using induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) derived from a patient with genetic photoreceptor disease, an isogenic control, and an unrelated control. Organoids were sampled using single-cell RNA sequencing across the developmental window encompassing photoreceptor specification, emergence, and maturation; up to 260 days of in vitro differentiation. Using single-cell transcriptomics data, we reconstruct the rod photoreceptor developmental lineage and identify a branchpoint in development unique to the disease state that gives rise to a divergent rod photoreceptor cell population. We show that the rod-specific transcription factor NR2E3 is required for the proper expression of genes involved in phototransduction, including expression of the light-sensitive protein rhodopsin, which is absent in divergent rods. NR2E3-null rods additionally misexpress several cone-specific phototransduction genes at both the transcript and protein level. Using joint multimodal single-cell sequencing on late-stage retinal organoids, we further identify the specific putative regulatory sites where rod-specific factors act to steer rod and cone photoreceptor cell development. Importantly, these findings are strikingly different than that observed in rodent models of disease. Together, these data provide a roadmap of human photoreceptor development and leverage patient iPSCs to define the specific roles of rod transcription factors in photoreceptor cell emergence and maturation.

Project description:The sensation of light is initiated in photoreceptor cells by the photoisomerization of a chromophore molecule from 11-cis to all-trans retinal. Continuous visual perception requires recycling of the spent chromophore back to the 11-cis form through the visual cycle, a series of reactions in the retinal pigmented epithelium (RPE). Light-driven chromophore consumption by photoreceptors is greater in daytime compared to night time, suggesting that correspondingly higher activity of the visual cycle may be required. On the other hand, as rod photoreceptors are saturated in bright light, the continuous turnover of their chromophore through the visual cycle during daytime would unnecessarily utilize precious energy and produce toxic byproducts. Here, we sought to determine whether the recycling of chromophore and the dark adaptation of rods is regulated by the circadian clock and light exposure. We demonstrate that in melatonin-proficient C3H/f+/+ mice, rod dark adaptation is slower during the day or after light exposure. This surprising daytime downregulation of the RPE visual cycle was further demonstrated by gene analysis, which revealed light-driven reduction in the expression of Rpe65, which encodes a key enzyme of the RPE visual cycle. In contrast, rods in melatonin-deficient strains (C57BL6/J and 129/Sv) were not affected by this daily visual cycle modulation. Our results demonstrate that the circadian clock and light exposure regulate the recycling of chromophore in the RPE visual cycle. This daily modulation of rod dark adaptation is mediated by melatonin and could potentially protect the retina from light-induced damage during the day. mRNA-seq of murine eyes (lens removed) in objective day (OD) vs. subjective day (SD) conditions (2 biological replicates per condition).

Project description:Neuronal plasticity of the inner retina has been observed in response to photoreceptor degeneration. Typically, this phenomenon has been considered maladaptive and may preclude vision restoration in the blind. However, several recent studies utilizing triggered photoreceptor ablation have shown adaptive responses in bipolar cell dendrites expected to support normal vision. Whether such homeostatic plasticity occurs during progressive photoreceptor degenerative disease to help maintain normal visual behavior is unknown. We addressed these issues in an established mouse model of Retinitis Pigmentosa caused by the P23H mutation in rhodopsin. We show robust modulation of the retinal transcriptomic network reminiscent of the neurodevelopmental state as well as potentiation of rod – rod bipolar cell signaling following rod photoreceptor degeneration. Additionally, we found highly sensitive night vision in P23H mice even when more than half of the rod photoreceptors were lost. The results implicate retinal adaptation leading to persistent visual function during photoreceptor degenerative disease.

Abstract:
Photoreceptor cells finely adjust their sensitivity and electrical response according to changes in light stimuli as a direct consequence of the feedback and regulation mechanisms in the phototransduction cascade. In this study, we employed a systems biology approach to develop a dynamic model of vertebrate rod phototransduction that accounts for the details of the underlying biochemistry. Following a bottom-up strategy, we first reproduced the results of a robust model developed by Hamer et al. (Vis. Neurosci., 2005, 22(4), 417), and then added a number of additional cascade reactions including: (a) explicit reactions to simulate the interaction between the activated effector and the regulator of G-protein signalling (RGS); (b) a reaction for the reformation of the G-protein from separate subunits; (c) a reaction for rhodopsin (R) reconstitution from the association of the opsin apoprotein with the 11-cis-retinal chromophore; (d) reactions for the slow activation of the cascade by opsin. The extended network structure successfully reproduced a number of experimental conditions that were inaccessible to prior models. With a single set of parameters the model was able to predict qualitative and quantitative features of rod photoresponses to light stimuli ranging over five orders of magnitude, in normal and altered conditions, including genetic manipulations of the cascade components. In particular, the model reproduced the salient dynamic features of the rod from Rpe65(-/-) animals, a well established model for Leber congenital amaurosis and vitamin A deficiency. The results of this study suggest that a systems-level approach can help to unravel the adaptation mechanisms in normal and in disease-associated conditions on a molecular basis.

Project description:Mutation of rod photoreceptor-enriched transcription factors is a major cause of inherited blindness. We identified the orphan nuclear hormone receptor ERRβ as selectively expressed in rod photoreceptors. Overexpression of ERRβ induces expression of rod-specific genes in retinas of both wildtype and in Nrl-/- mice, which lack rod photoreceptors. Mutation of ERRβ results in dysfunction and degeneration of rods, while inverse agonists of ERRβ trigger rapid rod degeneration, which is rescued by constitutively active mutants of ERRβ. ERRβ coordinates expression of multiple genes that are rate-limiting regulators of ATP generation and consumption in photoreceptors. Furthermore, enhancing ERRβ activity rescues photoreceptor defects that result from loss of the photoreceptor-specific transcription factor Crx. Our findings demonstrate that ERRβ is a critical regulator of rod photoreceptor function and survival, and suggest that ERRβ agonists may be useful in the treatment of certain retinal dystrophies. Affymetrix MOE430 microarrays were used to analyze the expression patterns of P21 mouse retinal tissues. The results were compared across the variable of Genotype, specifically ERRβ knockout versus wildtype.

Project description:To investigate the role of the circadian clock of the photoreceptor cells in regulation of retinal protein rhythms, we have analyzed diurnal protein expression in the photoreceptor-deficient cone-rod homeobox knock out mouse (Crx-/-). Retinal homogenates of 129/sv and Crx-/- mice were analysed by 2D-PAGE. Differentially expressed spots were in-gel digested with trypsin and identified by LC-MS/MS. Data were used to search the Swiss-Prot protein database.

Abstract:
Rod and cone photoreceptors support vision across large
light intensity ranges. Rods, active under dim illumination,
are thought to saturate at higher (photopic) irradiances. The
extent of rod saturation is not well defined; some studies
report rod activity well into the photopic range. Using
electrophysiological recordings from retina and dorsal lateral
geniculate nucleus of cone-deficient and visually intact mice,
we describe stimulus and physiological factors that influence
photopic rod-driven responses. We find that rod contrast
sensitivity is initially strongly reduced at high irradiances,
but progressively recovers to allow responses to moderate
contrast stimuli. Surprisingly, rods recover faster at higher
light levels. A model of rod phototransduction suggests that
phototransduction gain adjustments and bleaching adaptation
underlie rod recovery. Consistently, exogenous chromophore
reduces rod responses at bright background. Thus, bleaching
adaptation renders mouse rods responsive to modest contrast at
any irradiance. Paradoxically, raising irradiance across the
photopic range increases the robustness of rod responses.
