Journal ArticleDOI
Metabolites Interrogation in Cell Fate Decision of Cultured Human Corneal Endothelial Cells.
Junji Hamuro,Kohsaku Numa,Tomoko Fujita,Munetoyo Toda,Koji Ueda,Yuichi Tokuda,Atushi Mukai,Masakazu Nakano,Morio Ueno,Shigeru Kinoshita,Chie Sotozono +10 more
TL;DR: The findings suggest that the cell fate decision of cHCECs may be dictated at least partly through metabolic rewiring, linking upregulated glycolytic enzymes and influx of glutamine to the tricarboxylic acid cycle.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mitochondria as a Platform for Dictating the Cell Fate of Cultured Human Corneal Endothelial Cells.
Kohsaku Numa,Morio Ueno,Tomoko Fujita,Koji Ueda,Nao Hiramoto,Atushi Mukai,Yuichi Tokuda,Masakazu Nakano,Chie Sotozono,Shigeru Kinoshita,Junji Hamuro +10 more
TL;DR: The maximum oxygen consumption rate was found to be higher in healthy human corneal endothelium tissues than those with deeply reduced cell density and an upregulated tricarboxylic acid cycle was linked with metabolic rewiring converting cHCECs to acquire the mitochondria-dependent oxidative phenotype.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polarized Expression of Ion Channels and Solute Carrier Family Transporters on Heterogeneous Cultured Human Corneal Endothelial Cells.
Junji Hamuro,Hideto Deguchi,Tomoko Fujita,Koji Ueda,Yuichi Tokuda,Nao Hiramoto,Kohsaku Numa,Masakazu Nakano,John Bush,Morio Ueno,Chie Sotozono,Shigeru Kinoshita +11 more
TL;DR: The findings may suggest the relevance of qualifying the polarized expression of these ion channels and transporter-like proteins to ensure not only the suitability but also the in vivo biological functionality of cHCECs selected for use in a cell-injection therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mitochondrial miRNA494-3p in extracellular vesicles participates in cellular interplay of iPS-Derived human retinal pigment epithelium with macrophages.
Atsushi Mukai,Yohei Otsuki,Eiko Ito,Tomoko Fujita,Morio Ueno,Tadao Maeda,Shigeru Kinoshita,Chie Sotozono,Junji Hamuro +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the role of extracellular vesicle microRNAs (EV) secreted by human retinal pigment epithelium (hRPE) cells and their cellular interplay with macrophages (Mps) was explored.
