项目摘要

Dry eye disease (DED) is a multifactorial disease of the ocular surface characterized by a loss of tear film homeostasis. DED is one of the most common ophthalmological disorders, affecting 5-50% of populations world- wide, with a higher apparent incidence in females and aging populations. Symptoms associated with DED include ocular pain, irritation, dysesthesia, and blurred vision, which are major causes of visits to optometry and ophthalmology clinics. DED affects quality of life significantly and thus is a major public health concern. Despite the gravity of DED, the current treatments for DED are limited. Recent studies have uncovered the role of ocular sensory neurons, particularly cold thermoreceptor neurons, in the etiology of DED as well as ocular physiology. Furthermore, recent studies highlight the role of the cold and menthol receptor TRPM8 in cold sensory neurons in eye health and disease. The proposed research seeks to address the mechanism of ligand-dependent gating by TRPM8 and to develop agonists targeting TRPM8 to relieve DED, dry eye discomfort, and ocular pain. Toward these goals, we will employ a combination of structural biology, electrophysiology, chemical biology, and animal studies to interrogate the roles of TRPM8 in ocular physiology and pathophysiology as well as its pharmacological interventions. Taken together, successful completion of this work will provide the framework for therapeutic development on TRPM8, which will have far-reaching implications in treating ocular disorders.

干眼症是一种多因素的眼表疾病，其特征是泪膜丧失体内平衡DED是最常见的眼科疾病之一，影响世界上5-50%的人口，广泛，在女性和老龄人口中明显发病率较高。与DED相关的症状包括眼痛、刺激、感觉迟钝和视力模糊，这些都是验光主要原因，眼科诊所DED显著影响生活质量，因此是一个主要的公共卫生问题。尽管由于DED的严重性，目前对DED的治疗是有限的。最近的研究揭示了眼部的作用，感觉神经元，特别是冷的温度感受神经元，在DED的病因学以及眼生理学。此外，最近的研究强调了冷和薄荷醇受体TRPM 8在冷感觉神经元中的作用。眼睛健康和疾病。拟议的研究旨在解决配体依赖性门控的机制并开发靶向TRPM 8的激动剂以缓解DED、干眼不适和眼痛。朝向为了达到这些目标，我们将采用结构生物学、电生理学、化学生物学和动物实验相结合的方法。研究询问TRPM 8在眼生理学和病理生理学中的作用以及其在眼内的作用。药物干预。总之，成功完成这项工作将为以下方面提供框架： TRPM 8的治疗开发，这将在治疗眼部疾病方面具有深远的意义。
