<p>The eye is our window to the world. The process of vision begins in the retina, and in humans, the retina supplies almost 30% of the sensory input received by the brain. Any damage to retinal neurons can have devastating consequences, including loss of vision. Retinal and macular diseases are a major cause of visual impairment and affect the quality of life of millions worldwide.</p><p>Our research seeks to answer both basic and translational questions related to the retina and especially focuses on photoreceptors which initiate the visual process. Dysfunction or loss of photoreceptors is the primary cause of vision impairment in almost all cases of retinal and macular degeneration. The primary goals of our research are to:</p><ol><li>Elucidate genetic and epigenetic control mechanisms that guide retinal development, aging and evolution</li><li>Design novel therapies for retinal and macular degeneration by identifying genetic defects and cellular pathways that contribute to disease pathology</li></ol><p>We are using state-of-the-art next generation sequencing combined with bioinformatic strategies, and developing stem cell-based approaches for gene therapy and drug discovery.</p>

<p>This project seeks to elucidate transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulatory networks that determine cell fate and guide the development of photoreceptors from retinal progenitor cells. We also wish to elucidate how photoreceptor function is maintained throughout life. Some of the key questions we are pursuing are:</p><ul><li>What are intrinsic control mechanisms that lead to photoreceptor cell fate from retinal progenitors?</li><li>How are specific cell numbers and their organization with the retina determined?</li><li>How did nocturnality evolve?</li><li>Are all rods created equal?</li><li>Why do we have so many rod photoreceptors since cones are more useful for humans?</li><li>How did the fovea develop?</li><li>How is photoreceptor homeostasis maintained?</li><li>How do distinct transcriptional regulatory proteins coordinate their job with extrinsic factors and the microenvironment?</li><li>How does aging and environment affect gene function?</li><li>What is the role of the epigenome in maintaining healthy photoreceptors?</li><li>How do post-transcriptional events modulate the expression of functional macromolecules, including proteins and non-coding RNAs?</li><li>Why is splicing so prevalent in the retina?</li></ul><p>The answers to these questions will be valuable for delineating pathogenic mechanisms that contribute to photoreceptor cell death. We previously discovered that that Maf-family bZIP transcription factor NRL is critical for rod photoreceptor fate and functional differentiation, and that loss of NRL leads to S-cones instead of rods. NRL interacts with homeodomain protein CRX and numerous other regulatory factors to control expression of most rod-expressed genes. We are now focused on delineating the transcription factors and signaling pathways that are responsible for generating photoreceptors from retinal progenitor cells. We are also interested in understanding photoreceptor morphogenesis and synapse formation. This research has been extended to include how aging affects retinal and photoreceptor function. Our investigations utilize <em>in vivo </em>mouse retina and human retinal organoids derived from pluripotent stem cells as study systems. We use cutting-edge genomic technologies, and focus on RNA biology and proteomics.</p><p>Evolution can provide answers to fundamental questions relating to development and function. Using a diverse sampling of species that span the full breadth of vertebrates and display all major visual ecologies, we are embarking on studies of independent evolutionary origins of traits of interest to uncover their (potentially) common molecular underpinnings. This research holds great potential for elucidating how genetic variation and regulatory elements lead to diverse visual phenotypes.</p>

<p>The key translational issues that we focus on are:</p><ul><li>How do inherited mutations affect photoreceptor homeostasis and cause cell death?</li><li>Why do some mutations manifest later in life even though the genetic change was present at birth?</li><li>Can we find common cellular pathways associated with photoreceptor cell death caused by distinct genetic mutations?</li><li>How do numerous non-coding variations in the human genome affect gene expression in the retina?</li><li>Do disease-associated non-coding variants primarily reside in transcriptional control elements?</li><li>Can we integrate aging and environmental factors through epigenomic analysis into retinal gene/protein expression?</li><li>What are causal genes and genetic variants associated with age-related macular degeneration?</li><li>How does mitochondrial function affect progression of retinal and macular disease?</li><li>Are mitochondrial defects an early marker of photoreceptor disease?</li><li>Can we target mitochondria for designing treatments?</li><li>Can we target multiple retinal diseases by targeting specific pathways?</li><li>Can we use patient-derived cells for personalized medicine?</li><li>Are human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived retinal organoids a good model for elucidating disease mechanisms and developing therapies?</li><li>How can we utilize basic science knowledge to design novel gene- or cell-based therapies of retinal and macular diseases?</li></ul><p>Our laboratory is dedicated to identifying genetic defects that are responsible for inherited retinal degenerative diseases. Mutations in over 200 genes can result in photoreceptor degeneration. We therefore wish to elucidate disease gene networks and common cellular pathways that can be targeted for drug discovery. We collaborate with clinicians and scientists worldwide for disease gene discovery and use mouse models and/or human patient stem cell-derived retinal organoids for modeling Retinitis Pigmentosa and/or Leber's congenital amaurosis. Our current focus is on developing treatments for retinal diseases caused by mutations in CEP290, CRX, NPHP5, RPGR and RP2.</p><p>Our lab is identifying susceptibility variants associated with age-related macular degeneration (AMD), a multifactorial blinding disease affecting the elderly. Our current focus is on delineating causal genes and genetic variants that contribute to AMD pathology. We are defining regulatory elements/factors that control gene expression in the human retina, and integrating these with epigenetic and post-transcriptional regulation.</p>
