Comparative gene expression in the human limbus, conjunctiva and cornea

Project description:To date, there is no specific marker for limbal epithelial stem cells. The identification of a marker that is expressed in the limbal epithelium but not in the cornea or conjunctiva epithelium has been a growing need. To search for limbal-specific marker(s), we performed preferential gene profiling in the limbus in direct comparison to that in the cornea and conjunctiva using microarray technique. This study consisted of gene expression profiles comparing the limbus to the cornea and conjunctiva.

Single cell transcriptomics reveal the heterogeneity of the human cornea to identify novel markers of the limbus and stroma

Project description:The cornea is the clear window that lets light into the eye. It is composed of five layers: epithelium, Bowman’s layer, stroma, Descemet’s membrane and endothelium. The maintenance of its structure and transparency are determined by the functions of the different cell types populating each layer. Attempts to regenerate corneal tissue and understand disease conditions requires knowledge of how cell profiles vary across this heterogeneous tissue. We performed a single cell transcriptomic profiling of 19,472 cells isolated from eight healthy donor corneas. Our analysis delineates the heterogeneity of the corneal layers by identifying cell populations and revealing cell states that contribute in preserving corneal homeostasis. We identified that the expression of CAV1, CXCL14, HOMER3 and CPVL were exclusive to the corneal epithelial limbal stem cell niche, CKS2, STMN1 and UBE2C were exclusively expressed in highly proliferative transit amplifying cells, and NNMT was exclusively expressed by stromal keratocytes. Overall, this research provides a basis to improve current primary cell expansion protocols, for future profiling of corneal disease states, to help guide pluripotent stem cells into different corneal lineages, and to understand how engineered substrates affect corneal cells to improve regenerative therapies.

Transcription profiling of ververt monkey limbus

Project description:The limbus is a unique anatomic structure that is highly innervated and vascularized yet sets the boundary for the avascularized cornea. The corneal epithelial stem cells are believed to reside at the limbus. The intrinsic and external molecular signals that modulate the differentiation and proliferation of the limbal stems cells are still largely unidentified because of a lack of known specific markers. In this study, we used microarray technology to identify the unique gene expression profile in the limbus by comparing directly to that of its immediate adjacent structures, the cornea and conjunctiva, in the vervet monkey (Chlorocebus aethiops sabaeus). Many new genes were found to be preferentially expressed in the limbus, and two new biological pathways, melanin metabolism and apoptosis, were among other previously known processes identified in the limbus. These findings may shed light on the molecular components of limbal stem cells and their niche. Experiment Overall Design: The study consisted of gene expression profile comparisons across three anatomical structures of the eye. The parts of the eye compared included the cornea, the conjunctiva, and the limbus.

Overall, this research provides a basis to improve current primary cell expansion protocols, for future profiling of corneal disease states, to help guide pluripotent stem cells into different corneal lineages, and to understand how engineered substrates affect corneal cells to improve regenerative therapies.

Response to SARS-CoV-2 infection in cornea, limbus and sclera from human donors

Project description:Here we report the transcriptional response to SARS-CoV-2 in cornea, limbus and sclera from human cadaver donor tissue. All three tissues are characterized by an NFkB-mediated chemokine response to viral infection as well as type-I interferon stimulated genes.

Expression profiling of wildtype mouse cornea in development, adult, and aging

Project description:While the mouse cornea has been well characterized morphologically, the transcriptional changes have not been described in detail. To characterize the genes, pathways, and transcriptional regulators involved in mouse cornea development and aging, we isolated whole cornea from wildtype CB6 mice at several developmental timepoints and every 6 months in the adult. Corneal epithelium and stroma were isolated at one timepoint to provide insights into the genes that are unique to each tissue. Total RNA was purified from whole mouse cornea at 12 time points over the life of the mouse and from corneal epithelium and stroma at a single timepoint.
