Ultraviolet Irradiation-Induced Volume Alteration of Corneal Epithelial Cells
Purpose The purpose of the study is to understand how extracellular stresses, such as ultraviolet (UV) irradiation, affect corneal epithelial cells. Cell volume changes, damage to corneal epithelial integrity, and cellular responses were assessed after exposure to UVC stresses. Methods Primary human and rabbit corneal epithelial cells were exposed to UVC light in culture conditions. Ultraviol...
متن کاملProtective effect of histatin 1 against ultraviolet-induced damage to human corneal epithelial cells
The aim of the present study was to investigate the role of histatin 1 (Hst1) in human corneal epithelial cells (HCECs) exposed to ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Prior to UV irradiation for various durations, HCECs were pre-treated with different concentrations of Hst1 and the effect on cell apoptosis and cell viability were examined by flow cytometry, alamarBlue® and MTT assays to determine the o...
متن کاملAnalysis of Gene Regulation in Rabbit Corneal Epithelial Cells Induced by Ultraviolet Radiation
Ultraviolet (UV)-induced cataracts are becoming a major environmental health concern because of the possible decrease in the stratospheric ozone layer. Experiments were designed to isolate gene(s) affected by UV irradiation in rabbit cornea tissues using fluorescent differential display-reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (FDDRT-PCR). The epithelial cells were grown in standard medi...
متن کاملBrm Inhibits the Proliferative Response of Keratinocytes and Corneal Epithelial Cells to Ultraviolet Radiation-Induced Damage
Ultraviolet radiation (UV) from sunlight is the primary cause of skin and ocular neoplasia. Brahma (BRM) is part of the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex. It provides energy for rearrangement of chromatin structure. Previously we have found that human skin tumours have a hotspot mutation in BRM and that protein levels are substantially reduced. Brm-/- mice have enhanced susceptibility to pho...
متن کاملPathway-specific effect of caffeine on protection against UV irradiation-induced apoptosis in corneal epithelial cells.
PURPOSE To define the role of molecular interaction between the UV-induced JNK (c-Jun N-terminal kinase) cascade and corneal epithelial cell apoptosis and protection against apoptosis by caffeine. METHODS Rabbit and human corneal epithelial cells were cultured in DMEM/F12 medium containing 10% FBS and 5 microg/mL insulin at 37 degrees C in 5% CO(2). DNA fragmentation and ethidium bromide/acri...
