Oxidative stress and TGFβ-induced disturbance of cells and tissues are implicated in initiation and progression of pathophysiology of cells/tissues. Using primary human Trabecular Meshwork (TM) cells from normal and glaucomatous subjects, we demonstrated that peroxiredoxin (PRDX) 6, an antioxidant, offsets the deleterious effects of oxidative stress on TM cells by optimizing ROS and TGFβ levels. An analysis of glaucomatous TM cells revealed a reduced expression of PRDX6 mRNA and protein. Biochemical assays disclosed enhanced levels of ROS, as well as high levels of TGFβs, and these cells expressed elevated extracellular matrix (ECM) andTsp1 proteins with reduced MMP2; conditions implicated in the pathophysiology of glaucoma. Nonglaucomatous TM cells exposed to TGFβs/ROS showed similar features as in glaucomatous cells. The abnormalities induced were reversed by delivery of PRDX6. The data provide evidence that oxidative stress-induced abnormality in TM may be related to reduced PRDX6 expression, and provide a foundation for antioxidant-based therapeutics for treating glaucoma.
