Photoreceptor mitochondrial oxidative stress is the initial pathologic event in experimental autoimmune uveitis. In this study, the authors determined alterations in retinal mitochondrial protein levels in response to oxidative stress during the early phase of experimental autoimmune uveitis (EAU). Retinal mitochondrial fractions during early EAU were prepared and subjected to two-dimensional difference in gel electrophoresis (2D-DIGE). Protein spots showing differential expression were excised and subjected to matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) for peptide identification. Levels of these proteins were also confirmed by Western blot analysis. mRNA expression of these proteins was confirmed by real-time PCR. TUNEL staining was performed to detect apoptosis. 2D-DIGE analysis revealed differential expression of 13 proteins. Ten proteins were overexpressed, including manganese-SOD, αA crystallin, β crystallin, and four proteins were downregulated, including adenosine triphosphate (ATP) synthase, malate dehydrogenase, and calretinin. Increased levels of αA crystallin, βB2 crystallin, MnSOD, and aconitase and decreased levels of ATP synthase were confirmed by Western blot analysis. qPCR also confirmed the increased expression of αA crystallin, βB2 crystallin, MnSOD, and Hsp70. Apoptosis was absent during this phase. The presence of mitochondrial-specific oxidative stress-related proteins in the early EAU retina along with the downregulation of ATP synthase provides early evidence of stress-related retinal damage. The presence of high levels of αA and βB2 crystallin in the mitochondria may prevent cell death during early EAU.
