Vet Ophthalmol 2024; 27:40-52. [PMID: 37144658 DOI: 10.1111/vop.13107] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2022] [Revised: 04/24/2023] [Accepted: 04/24/2023] [Indexed: 05/06/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to use shotgun label-free tandem mass spectrometry (LF-MS/MS) to evaluate aqueous humor (AH) from horses with uveitis (UH) compared to ophthalmologically healthy horses (HH). ANIMALS STUDIED Twelve horses diagnosed with uveitis based on ophthalmic examination and six ophthalmologically healthy horses (postmortem) purchased for teaching purposes. PROCEDURES All horses received a complete ophthalmic examination and physical exam. Aqueous paracentesis was performed on all horses and AH total protein concentrations were measured with nanodrop (TPn) and refractometry (TPr). AH samples were analyzed with shotgun LF-MS/MS and proteomic data were compared between groups using Wilcoxon rank-sum test. RESULTS A total of 147 proteins were detected, 11 proteins had higher abundance in UH, and 38 proteins had lower abundance in UH. Proteins with higher abundance included apolipoprotein E, alpha-2-macroglobulin (A2M), alpha-2-HS-glycoprotein, prothrombin, fibrinogen, complement component 4 (C4), joining chain for IgA and IgM, afamin, and amine oxidase. There were positive correlations between TPn (p = .003) and TPr (p = .0001) compared to flare scores. CONCLUSION Differential abundance of A2M, prothrombin, fibrinogen, and C4 indicate upregulation of the complement and coagulation cascade in equine uveitis. Proinflammatory cytokines and the complement cascade have potential as therapeutic targets for equine uveitis.

Abstract
Uveitis, a group of intraocular inflammatory diseases, is one of the major causes of severe visual impairment among the working-age population. This study aimed to screen potential urinary biomarkers for uveitis based on proteome analysis. An experimental autoimmune uveitis (EAU) rat model induced by bovine interphotoreceptor retinoid-binding protein (IRBP) was used to mimic uveitis. In discovery phase, a total of 704 urinary proteins were identified via data-independent acquisition (DIA) proteomic technique, of which 76 were significantly changed (34, 36, and 37 on days 5, 8, and 12, respectively, after bovine IRBP immunization). Gene Ontology annotation of the differential proteins indicates that acute-phase response, innate immune response, neutrophil aggregation, and chronic inflammatory response were significantly enriched. Protein-protein interaction network indicates that these differential urinary proteins were biologically connected in EAU, as a group. In validation phase, 17 proteins having human orthologs were verified as the potential markers associated with uveitis by parallel reaction monitoring (PRM) targeted quantitative analysis. Twelve differential proteins changed even when there were no clinical manifestations or histopathological ocular damage. These 12 proteins are potential biomarkers for early diagnosis of uveitis to prevent the development of visual impairment. Five differential proteins changed at three time-points and showed progressive changes as the uveitis progressed, and another five differential proteins changed only on day 12 when EAU severity peaked. These 10 proteins may serve as potential biomarkers for prognostic evaluation of uveitis. Our findings revealed that the urinary proteome could sensitively reflect dynamic pathophysiological changes in EAU, and represent the first step towards the application of urinary protein biomarkers for uveitis.

Abstract
Uveitis is a recurrent, inflammatory eye disease that occurs in the retina, iris, ciliary body and choroid. Currently, the detailed mechanism is still unclear. Proteomics can offer a powerful set of tools for the direct high-throughput study and a key contribution to the understanding of protein functions. This approach can also allow us to compare the protein profiling of the cells in healthy and diseased states that can be used to identify proteins associated with disease development and progression. In the present study, we first established an autoimmune uveitis (EAU) rat model. On day 12 after immunization, we isolated the rat retinas from both normal and EAU animals to collect total proteins. Using tandem mass tag (TMT) peptide labeling coupled with LC-MS/MS quantitative proteomics technique, we identified the differentially expressed proteins in EAU rat retinas, performed bioinformatics analyses, validated the expression of the COX1, NADH1, C3, and C9 proteins, and determined the adenosine triphosphate (ATP) levels. The results indicated that there were 190 upregulated and 103 downregulated proteins in EAU rat retinas. Bioinformatics analysis revealed the differentially expressed proteins were mainly involved in acute inflammatory response, visual perception and eye photoreceptor cell differentiation that were mainly related to complement and coagulation cascades, phagosome, PI3K-Akt signaling, and metabolic pathways. In conclusion, based on the TMT-based quantitative proteomics technique, the differentially expressed proteins in EAU rat retinas were mainly associated with complement and coagulation cascades and metabolic pathways. Our findings will facilitate the understanding of the pathogenesis of uveitis and will be useful for subsequent studies.

Part A; proteomic responses in the irradiated fish and in non-irradiated bystander fish. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2018; 163:297-306. [PMID: 29463416 DOI: 10.1016/j.envres.2017.12.023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/31/2017] [Revised: 12/19/2017] [Accepted: 12/24/2017] [Indexed: 06/08/2023]
Abstract
Exposure to a single 0.5 Gy X-ray dose of eggs at 48 h after fertilisation (48 h egg), eyed eggs, yolk sac larvae (YSL) and first feeders induces a legacy effect in adult rainbow trout. This includes the transmission of a bystander effect to non-irradiated adult trout which had swam with the irradiated fish. The aim of this study was to investigate this legacy by analysing the gill proteome of these irradiated and bystander fish. Irradiation at all of the early life stages resulted in changes to proteins which play a key role in development but are also known to be anti-tumorigenic and anti-oxidant: upregulation of haemoglobin subunit beta (48 h egg), haemoglobin, serum albumin 1 precursor (eyed eggs), clathrin heavy chain 1 isoform X10 (eyed eggs and first feeders), and actin-related protein 2/3 complex subunit 4 (first feeders), downregulation of pyruvate dehydrogenase, histone 1 (48 h egg), triosephosphate isomerase (TPI), collagen alpha-1(1) chain like proteins (YSL), pyruvate kinase PKM-like protein (YSL and first feeders), ubiquitin-40S ribosomal proteins S27 and eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4 A isoform 1B (first feeders). However irradiation of YSL and first feeders (post hatching early life stages) also induced proteomic changes which have a complex relationship with tumorigenesis or cancer progression; downregulation of alpha-1-antiprotease-like protein precursor, vigilin isoform X2 and nucleoside diphosphate kinase (YSL) and upregulation of hyperosmotic glycine rich protein (first feeders). In bystander fish some proteomic changes were similar to those induced by irradiation: upregulation of haemoglobin subunit beta (48 h egg), haemoglobin (eyed eggs), actin-related protein 2/3 complex subunit 4, hyperosmotic glycine rich protein (first feeders), and downregulation of alpha-1-antiprotease-like protein, vigilin isoform X2, nucleoside diphosphate kinase (YSL), pyruvate kinase PKM-like protein and ubiquitin-40S ribosomal protein S27a-like (first feeders). Other proteomic changes were unique to bystander fish; downregulation of TPI, ubiquitin-40S ribosomal protein S2 (eyed egg), cofilin-2, cold-inducible RNA-binding protein B-like isoform X3 (YSL) and superoxide dismutase (first feeder), and upregulation of haemoglobin subunit alpha, collagen 1a1 precursor, apolipoprotein A-1-1 and A-1-2 precursor (first feeders). These bystander effect proteomic changes have been shown to be overwhelmingly anti-tumorigenic or protective of the fish gill.

Abstract
Zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles can exhibit toxic effect on cells and tissues, which may be involved in the excessive generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the consequent mitochondria-mediated apoptotic pathway. Nevertheless, the detailed mechanism remains unclear. In this study, we explored the effects of ZnO nanoparticles on the expressions of cytochrome c, ATP level, mitochondrial membrane potential, ROS, apoptosis, total antioxidant enzyme activities and apoptotic-related protein levels in murine photoreceptor cells as well as the changes of proteomic profiling. Moreover, we also performed the bioinformatics analysis for the differentially expressed proteins. Our results show that ZnO nanoparticles induce the release of cytochorme c, decrease the intracellular ATP level, collapse the mitochondrial membrane potential, elevate the ROS level, inhibit total antioxidant enzyme activities and increase the Bax and Caspase 3 levels whereas it decrease the Bcl-2 expression, leading to cell death. Proteomic analysis reveals the differentially expressed proteins are involved in cytochrome c oxidase activity and oxidative phosphorylation. Protein-protein interaction analysis confirms the differentially expressed proteins are closely associated with the clusters related to apoptotic signaling pathway and oxidative phosphorylation-associated proteins. Our results indicate that mitochondria play a central role in ZnO nanoparticle-induced murine photoreceptor cell death.

Abstract
The phenomenon by which irradiated organisms including cells in vitro communicate with unirradiated neighbors is well established in biology as the radiation-induced bystander effect (RIBE). Generally, the purpose of this communication is thought to be protective and adaptive, reflecting a highly conserved evolutionary mechanism enabling rapid adjustment to stressors in the environment. Stressors known to induce the effect were recently shown to include chemicals and even pathological agents. The mechanism is unknown but our group has evidence that physical signals such as biophotons acting on cellular photoreceptors may be implicated. This raises the question of whether quantum biological processes may occur as have been demonstrated in plant photosynthesis. To test this hypothesis, we decided to see whether any form of entanglement was operational in the system. Fish from 2 completely separate locations were allowed to meet for 2 hours either before or after which fish from 1 location only (group A fish) were irradiated. The results confirm RIBE signal production in both skin and gill of fish, meeting both before and after irradiation of group A fish. The proteomic analysis revealed that direct irradiation resulted in pro-tumorigenic proteomic responses in rainbow trout. However, communication from these irradiated fish, both before and after they had been exposed to a 0.5 Gy X-ray dose, resulted in largely beneficial proteomic responses in completely nonirradiated trout. The results suggest that some form of anticipation of a stressor may occur leading to a preconditioning effect or temporally displaced awareness after the fish become entangled.

Abstract
Longdan Xiegan Tang (LXT) is a mixture of herbal extracts commonly used in traditional Chinese medicine that may exert immunomodulatory effects for the treatment of autoimmune diseases. However, the detailed mechanisms that mediate the actions of LXT are unclear. The present study induced an experimental autoimmune uveitis (EAU) model in Lewis rats via injection of IRBP1177‑1191 emulsion. The model was used to investigate the effects of LXT on EAU rats and assess the efficacy of LXT by measuring clinical manifestations and histopathological changes caused by EAU. Additionally, alterations in the ratio of CD4+/CD8+‑T cells were determined by flow cytometry, and the expression of interferon (IFN)‑γ, interleukin (IL)‑17, IL‑10 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)‑α were measured using reverse transcription‑quantitative polymerase chain reaction and enzyme‑linked immunosorbent assay analysis. The results of the present study demonstrate that LXT can efficiently alleviate the symptoms of EAU, inhibit the differentiation of uveitogenic CD4+ T cells and reduce the expression of proinflammatory cytokines, including IFN‑γ, IL‑17 and TNF‑α. Furthermore, LXT promotes the production of IL‑10 and accelerates the recovery of EAU, indicating that the immunomodulatory effects of LXT may potentially be used for the treatment of uveitis.
