Keratoconus is a thinning corneal dystrophy that begins in the early teenage years and ultimately requires cornea transplantation to restore vision. Here we conducted a highly sensitive mass spectrometric analysis of the epithelium and the stroma from keratoconus and normal donor corneas. We identified a total of 932 and 1,157 proteins in the consolidated data of the epithelium and stroma, respectively. Technical replicates showed strong correlations (≥ 0.88) in levels of all common proteins, indicating very low technical variations in the data. Analysis of the most increased (≥ 1.5 fold) and decreased (≤ 0.8 fold) proteins in the keratoconus corneal epithelial protein extracts identified proteins related to dermal diseases, inflammation, epithelial stratification and mesenchymal changes. Increased proteins included keratins 6A, 16 and vimentin, while the iron transporter lactotransferrin was decreased. The keratoconus stromal proteome suggest endoplasmic reticular stress, oxidative stress and widespread decreases in many extracellular matrix proteoglycan core proteins, lumican and keratocan, collagen types I, III, V and XII. Marked increase in apoptosis and endocytosis-related proteins suggest degenerative changes in keratocytes, the resident cells of the stroma. This is the most comprehensive proteome analysis of the cornea that highlights similarities of keratoconus with other neurodegenerative diseases.
