- W2010278811 abstract "Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) is characterized by a progressive loss of corneal endothelial cells (CECs) and an abnormal accumulation of extracellular matrix in Descemet's membrane leading to increased thickness and formation of excrescences called guttae. Extracellular matrix homeostasis is modulated by an equilibrium between matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and their endogenous tissue inhibitors (TIMPs). This study aimed to investigate MMPs and TIMPs profile in FECD, taking into account cell morphology. Populations of FECD and healthy CECs were cultured and their conditioned media collected for analysis. The presence of proteases in the conditioned media was studied using a semi-quantitative proteome profiler array, and MMPs levels were assessed using quantitative assays (ELISA and quantitative antibody array). MMP activity was determined by zymography and fluorometry. The expression pattern of the membrane type 1-MMP (MT1-MMP, also known as MMP-14) was examined by immunofluorescence on ex vivo FECD and healthy explants of CECs attached to Descemet's membrane. Finally, MMPs and TIMPs protein expression was compared to gene expression obtained from previously collected data. FECD and healthy CEC populations generated cultures of endothelial, intermediate, and fibroblastic-like morphology. Various MMPs (MMP-1, -2, -3, -7, -8, -9, -10, and -12) and TIMPs (TIMP-1 to -4) were detected in both FECD and healthy CECs culture supernatants. Quantitative assays revealed a decrease in MMP-2 and MMP-10 among FECD samples. Both these MMPs can degrade the main extracellular matrix components forming guttae (fibronectin, laminin, collagen IV). Moreover, MMPs/TIMPs ratio was also decreased among FECD cell populations. Activity assays showed greater MMPs/Pro-MMPs proportions for MMP-2 and MMP-10 in FECD cell populations, although overall activities were similar. Moreover, the analysis according to cell morphology revealed among healthy CECs, both increased (MMP-3 and -13) and decreased (MMP-1, -9, -10, and -12) MMPs proteins along with increased MMPs activity (MMP-2, -3, -9, and -10) in the fibroblastic-like subgroup when compared to the endothelial subgroup. However, FECD CECs did not show similar behaviors between the different morphology subgroups. Immunostaining of MT1-MMP on ex vivo FECD and healthy explants revealed a redistribution of MT1-MMP around guttae in FECD explants. At the transcriptional level, no statistically significant differences were detected, but cultured FECD cells had a 12.2-fold increase in MMP1 and a 4.7-fold increase in TIMP3. These results collectively indicate different, and perhaps pathological, MMPs and TIMPs profile in FECD CECs compared to healthy CECs. This is an important finding suggesting the implication of MMPs and TIMPs in FECD pathophysiology." @default.
