Inducible Slc4a11 Knockout Triggers Corneal Edema Through Perturbation of Corneal Endothelial Pump

Abstract: The conventional Slc4a11 knockout (KO) shows significant corneal edema at eye opening, a fact that complicates the study of the initial events leading to edema. An inducible KO would provide opportunities to examine early events following loss of Slc4a11 activity. METHODS.Slc4a11 Flox (SF) mice were crossed with mice expressing the estrogen receptor Cre Recombinase fusion protein and fed tamoxifen (Tm) for two weeks. Corneal thickness (CT) was measured by OCT. At eight weeks endpoint, oxidative damage, tight j… Show more

“…Endothelial pump function relies on both lactate transport and an intact osmotic barrier 20,21 . Changes in cell shape in Slc4a11 KO corneal endothelium is previously reported 9 . In Slc4a11 KO corneal endothelial cells, aberrations in actin cytoskeleton assembly, tight junction organization, cell shape changes, and increased paracellular permeability were observed 9 .…”

“…The expression pattern of ZO-1 is incomplete, which accounts for a weak endothelial barrier that allows the passage of nutrients and other molecules into the stroma 2 . Increased cell size is observed in Slc4a11 KO corneal endothelium 5,9 . In order to assess cell size, corneal cups were stained with ZO-1.…”
