(Submitter supplied) Purpose: Marked extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling occurs in the human optic nerve head in primary open angle glaucoma (POAG). The glial fibrillary acid protein (GFAP) negative lamina cribrosa cell may play an important role in this remodeling process. The authors report the first study of global and ECM-focused gene transcription differentials between GFAP-negative negative lamina cribrosa (LC) cells from normal and POAG human donors. more...

(Submitter supplied) The mechanical effect of raised intraocular pressure is a recognised stimulus for optic neuropathy in primary open angle glaucoma (POAG). Characteristic extra-cellular matrix (ECM) remodelling accompanies axonal damage in the lamina cribrosa (LC) of the optic nerve head in POAG. Glial cells in the lamina cribrosa may play a role in this process but the precise cellular responses to mechanical forces in this region are unknown. more...

(Submitter supplied) Primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) is a progressive optic neuropathy, which is a major cause of worldwide visual impairment and blindness. Pathological hallmarks of the glaucomatous optic nerve head include retinal ganglion cell axon loss and extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling of the lamina cribrosa layer. TGF-beta is an important pro-fibrotic modulator of ECM metabolism, whose levels are elevated in human POAG lamina cribrosa tissue compared with non-glaucomatous controls. more...

(Submitter supplied) Gene expression in human optic nerve head (ONH) astrocytes exposed to either 60 mm Hg hydrostatic pressure (HP) or control ambient pressure (CP) was compared using Affymetrix GeneChip microarrays to identify HP-responsive genes. Primary ONH astrocytes from two male Caucasian donors (passage 4) were grown to 75% confluence and were exposed for 6, 24 or 48 h to control ambient pressure (CP6, CP24, CP48) or hydrostatic pressure (HP6, HP24, HP48), or harvested at the beginning of the pressure experiment (CP0). more...

Expression profiling of astrocytes taken from the optic nerve head (ONH) of patients with glaucoma. The ONH is the site of damage in glaucomatous optic neuropathy. Studies suggest that damage in glaucoma is mediated by reactive astrocytes.

(Submitter supplied) The goal of this study was to contrast genome-wide gene expression profiles of cultured human trabecular meshwork (HTM) cells, to that of control and primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) HTM tissues. Total RNA from cultured HTM cells and HTM tissue dissected from control and POAG anterior segments fixed in RNA later™ was linearly amplified with the OvationTM Biotin RNA Amplification and Labeling System and individually hybridized to Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 high density microarrays. more...

(Submitter supplied) It is widely accepted that a woman’s lifetime risk of developing breast cancer at menopause is reduced by early full term pregnancy and multiparity. This phenomenon is associated with the development and differentiation of the breast, which ultimately imprints a specific genomic profile in the mammary epithelium. In the present work we demonstrate that this profile represents a permanent signature that could be associated with the breast cancer risk reduction conferred by pregnancy. more...

(Submitter supplied) The small molecule Halofuginone (HF) is a potent regulator of extracellular matrix (ECM ) gene expression and is unique in its therapeutic potential. While the basis for HF effects is unknown, inhibition of TGFb signaling and activation of the AAR have been linked to HF transcriptional control of a number of ECM components and amelioration of fibrosis and alleviation of autoimmune disease by regulation of Th17 cell differentiation, respectively. more...
