To determine whether the elevated level of interleukin (IL)-1β in aqueous humor after transcorneal freezing upregulates FGF-2 synthesis in rabbit corneal endothelium through PI 3-kinase and p38 pathways. Transcorneal freezing was performed in New Zealand white rabbits to induce an injury-mediated inflammation. The concentration of IL-1β was measured with a Bio-Plex Protein Array System, while expression of FGF-2, p38, and Akt were analyzed by Western blotting. Intracellular location of FGF-2 and actin cytoskeleton was determined by immunofluorescent staining. Massive infiltration of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) to the corneal endothelium was observed after freezing, and IL-1β concentration in the aqueous humor was elevated in a time-dependent manner after freezing. Similarly, FGF-2 expression was increased in a time-dependent manner. When corneal endothelium was stained with anti-FGF-2 antibody, nuclear location of FGF-2 was mostly observed in the cornea after cryo-treatment, while FGF-2 in normal corneal endothelium was localized at plasma membrane. Treatment of the ex-vivo corneal tissue with IL-1β upregulated FGF-2 and facilitated its nuclear location in corneal endothelium. Transcorneal freezing disrupted the actin cytoskeleton at the cortex, and cell shapes were altered from cobblestone morphology to irregular shape. Topical treatment with LY294002 and SB203580 on the cornea after cryo-treatment blocked phosphorylation of Akt and p38 in corneal endothelium, respectively. These inhibitors also reduced FGF-2 level and partially blocked the morphologic changes after freezing. These data suggest that after transcorneal freezing, IL-1β released by PMNs into aqueous humor stimulates FGF-2 synthesis in corneal endothelium via PI 3-kinase and p38.
