Cenedella and Charles R. Fleschner The authors developed a drect chemcal approach for estmatng the rate of turnover of the corneal epthelum n vvo. The method was used to examne the effects of lovastatn, a potent nhbtor of cholesterol bosynthess, on prolferaton and turnover of the epthelum. Corneal DNA was labeled by pulse njecton (IP) of the rat wth 3 H-thymdne, and 3 H-labeled DNA was recovered from perpheral and central corneas over the next 5 days. Only the epthelum became labeled, and the loss of label by cell desquamaton began 3 days after njecton. The loss of 3 H-DNA from the cornea (perpheral plus central regon) followed frst-order knetcs. The half-lfe of the dsappearance was about 3 days. The perpheral cornea became more hghly labeled than the central cornea and began to lose 3 H-DNA before the central cornea. These observatons support the possblty of a hgher mtotc rate n the perpheral regon and the centrpetal movement of a populaton of perpheral epthelal cells n the normal cornea. The half-lves of the dsappearance of 3 H-DNA from perpheral and central corneas measured between days 5 and 5 postnjecton were dentcal, both at 3 days. Complete turnover of the corneal epthelum would, therefore, requre about 2 weeks (4-5 half-lves). Treatment of the rat wth lovastatn had no obvous effects upon the prolferaton or turnover of the corneal epthelum. Although lovastatn nhbted corneal 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase, the key regulatory enzyme of cholesterol synthess, the cornea compensated by nducton of ths enzyme so that there was no net nhbton of cholesterol synthess n the cornea. Invest Ophthalmol Vs Sc 3: ,990 The corneal epthelum undergoes dynamc turnover due to sustaned prolferaton of basal epthelal cells. These basal cells are then dsplaced outward by the next generaton of mtotc cells and eventually lost by desquamaton. ' 2 A slow centrpetal movement of perpheral epthelal cells also contrbutes to the renewal of the epthelum. 3-4 Net turnover of the epthelum has been estmated n vtro by measurng the rate of labelng of the basal cells from 3 H-thymdne ' 2-5 and n vvo by followng the movement of dye-tagged cells. 3 Both expermental approaches provde data whch suggest that the corneal epthelum s completely replaced n about 2 weeks. We are nterested n relatonshps between membrane synthess n epthelal cell populatons and ther turnover.

To nvestgate these possbltes, we developed a chemcal method for drectly and quanttatvely estmatng rates of prolferaton and turnover of the corneal epthelum n vvo. The approach bascally nvolves pulse labelng prolferatve corneal epthelal cells from a sngle ntrapertoneal (IP) njecton of the rat wth 3 H-thymdne and then measurng the concentraton and dstrbuton of 3 H-DNA n the cornea wth tme after njecton. Knetc analyss of the data permtted calculaton of the net rate of epthelum turnover of both the central and perpheral cornea and the tme requred for mtotc cells to desquamate. Informaton on the possble mgraton of labeled epthelal cells from perpheral to central cornea was also obtaned. Ths method was used to test the nfluence of lovastatn, the prototype of the new generaton of hypocholesterolemc drugs," on prolferaton and turnover of the corneal epthelum.

Male Sprague- Dawley rats (Hlltop, Scottdale, PA), 50 g, were fed Purna rat chow (Ralston Purna, St. Lous, MO) or ground chow contanng 0.% lovastatn for 2 weeks. Cornea Epthelum Turnover The rats (control or lovastatn treated) were njected IP wth 2 nc/g of body weght of 3 H-(methyl) thymdne (2 C/mmol; New England Nuclear, Boston, MA). They were klled by carbon doxde nhalaton at varous tmes over the next 5 days. The corneas were removed and freed of attached scleral tssue by dssecton. The central and perpheral corneas were separated wth a 3-mm dameter trephne. Perpheral cornea accounted for an average 6 % and 60% of the total cornea wet weght n control and treated rats, respectvely. In some cases, corneas were physcally separated nto epthelal and stromal fractons as done prevously. 0 Corneal fractons from ndvdual rats were separately homogenzed n.0 ml of salne contanng 0.4 mg of carrer DNA (salmon, type III; Sgma, St. Lous, MO) usng a 2-ml, ground glass-ground glass hand homogenzer (Radnot Glass, Monrova, CA). The homogenates were combned wth two separate -ml salne washes of the homogenzer, proten was dgested wth protenase K, and the DNA was recovered and assayed for trtum content as descrbed prevously. 3 The 3 H-DNA content of the central, perpheral, and whole cornea was calculated. The dstrbuton of substrate n the cornea for DNA synthess and 6 hr after njecton of 3 H-thymdne was measured by treatng homogenzed corneal fractons wth trchloroacetc acd (TCA). After centrfugaton, the supernatant was collected and the TCA extracted wth ether. The extracted supernatant was quck frozen and lyophlzed. The resdue was redssolved n water and counted. We showed prevously that the TCA-soluble, nonvolatle radoactvty present n the ocular lens after IP njecton of 3 H-thymdne was 3 H-thymdne. 4 The TCA-soluble, volatle radoactvty was 3 H 2 O. Content, Dstrbuton, and Actvty of Corneal 3-Hydroxy-3-Methylglutaryl Coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) Reductase The HMG-CoA reductase concentraton was estmated by mmunofluorescence mcroscopy; 5 t was purfed from rat lver, 6 and antbodes to the purfed enzyme were rased n rabbts. 7 Frozen sectons of rat cornea were ncubated wth rabbt ant-rat HMG-CoA reductase dluted :00 n 0.% albumn, 0. M potassum phosphate, 0.9% NaCl, ph 7.8 (albumn-pbs). After extensve washng wth albumn- PBS, the sectons were ncubated wth fluorescen sothocyanate-conjugated goat ant-rabbt mmunoglobuln G (Sgma) dluted :40 wth albumn-pbs. The staned sectons were examned and photographed usng an Olympus BH-2 mcroscope (Jacobs Instrument Co., Overland Park, KS) wth fluorescence attachment. The HMG-CoA reductase actvty was assayed accordng to Pann et al 8 as prevously descrbed. 0 One unt of reductase actvty was defned as pmol of mevalonate formed per mn at 37 C. Corneal Sterol Synthess In Vvo The rats (control or treated wth lovastatn, 0.% n the det for 4 days) were njected IP wth 50 mc/kg body weght of 3 H 2 O (25 mc/ml, New England Nuclear) between and 4 PM. A blood sample (20-40 /ul) was collected from the tal 2 and 24 hr after njecton to measure the 3 H 2 O content of the plasma. The mean specfc actvty over ths nterval was calculated for each rat by averagng the 2- and 24-hr values. Between 2 and 24 hr, the specfc actvty of plasma water (thus, also body water) decreased by about 25%. The rats were klled 24 hr after njecton. Corneas, lenses, and about 200 mg of lver were collected from each rat, weghed, and saponfed n ethanolc KOH. The dgtonn precptable sterols (DPS) were prepared, recovered, and assayed for 3 H-content as descrbed prevously. 09 All samples (ncludng background and blanks) were counted to a 2-a error of 2.5% or less. The results were expressed as nmol of 3 H of 3 H 2 O ncorporated nto DPS per mg of tssue. Results The epthelum accounted for essentally all of the 3 H-thymdne ncorporated nto DNA by the cornea (Table ). Furthermore, on a unt-weght bass, the perpheral cornea contaned a sgnfcantly hgher concentraton of 3 H-labeled DNA than the central cornea soon after njecton (Table 2). No dfferences were seen on day 5 or later. The lower 3 H-DNA concentraton n the central cornea was apparently not due to a lesser avalablty of substrate for DNA syn- Downloaded From: on 2/07/208

In fact, the concentraton of TCA-soluble, nonvolatle radoactvty ( 3 H-thymdne) was hgher n the central cornea hr after njecton (Table 3). By 6 hr postnjecton no dfferences were seen between central and perpheral cornea. It s apparent from Table 3 that substrate for 3 H-DNA synthess was avalable for only a few hours after njecton, snce the concentraton of TCA-soluble, nonvolatle 3 H-label greatly decreased between and 6 hr n both perpheral and central corneas. The 3 H-DNA content of the perpheral cornea remaned constant untl day 3 after njecton but then decreased by an apparent frst-order process (Fg. ). The half-lfe was about 3.3 days. The 3 H-DNA content of the central cornea remaned constant or slghtly ncreased untl day 5 after njecton-. Then, as wth the perpheral cornea, the 3 H-DNA content dsappeared by frst-order knetcs wth a half-lfe of 3. days (Fg. ). The onset of 3 H-DNA loss from the whole cornea (perpheral plus central fractons) resembled that of the perpheral cornea; e, loss began between days 3-5 postnjecton. The slope of the curve descrbng the loss of 3 H-DNA from the whole cornea was ndstngushable from those of the perpheral or central cornea. Table 2.

Dsappearance of 3 H-DNA from the cornea of lovastatntreated rats. Rats were treated for 4 days wth 0.% lovastatn n the det. Perpheral cornea comprsed 60% of total cornea wet weght. The concentraton of HMG-CoA reductase proten n the corneal epthelum of lovastatn-treated rats was shown by mmunofluorescence analyss to be clearly ncreased relatve to that of controls (Fg. 3). Also, HMG-CoA reductase actvty measured n mcrosomes from corneas of control and treated rats was 6 and 209 unts/mg proten, respectvely. Lovastatn s washed out of the mcrosomes durng ther preparaton, and thus the actvty of the ncreased enzyme became apparent. The total cholesterol syntheszed over a 24-hour perod by the cornea was smlar for control and treated rats (Table 4). In contrast, the 24-hour cholesterol synthess by the lver of treated rats was almost double that of controls and synthess by lenses of treated rats was sgnfcantly less than that of controls (Table 4). Dscusson Bref exposure n vvo of corneal epthelal cells to 3 H-thymdne should pulse label cells undergong mtoss at ths tme. The fate of ths dscrete populaton of labeled cells was followed by measurng the tme requred for the onset of loss of 3 H-DNA from the cornea and the sustaned rate of loss. Epthelal cells leave the cornea by desquamaton. Labeled cells ( 3 H-DNA) started to dsappear from the whole cornea approxmately 3 days after njectng 3 H-thymdne. Ths ndcated that, once an epthelal cell was dsplaced from the basal layer, about 3 days were requred for t to reach the corneal surface and desquamate. We found that the rate of loss of labeled cells followed apparent frst-order knetcs wth a half-lfe of about 3 days. Thus, 50% of the basal epthelal cells should be replaced about every 3 days. These results show that the corneal epthelum of the rat should completely turnover n 2-5 days (4-5 half-lves). Ths concluson agrees well wth earler results usng autoradographc methods. ' 2 ' 5 Interestng dfferences were observed between the labelng of the perpheral and central cornea. In our experments, the perpheral cornea comprsed about 60% of the cornea's total mass. Early after exposure to 3 H-thymdne (days -3), the concentraton of 3 H- DNA (dpm/mg tssue) was greater n the perpheral cornea. Assumng that the 3 H-DNA content per labeled cell s constant, ths suggested that the densty of mtotcally actve epthelal cells was greater n ths regon, a possblty consstent wth earler suggestons. 4 ' 20 Several observatons also support the possblty that a populaton of epthelal cells mgrated from perpheral to central cornea. The hgher concentraton of 3 H-DNA n the perpheral cornea dsappeared by day 5 after epthelal cell labelng. Thus, some labeled cells could have moved from the perphery to the center between days 3-5. Also, the total 3 H-DNA content of the perpheral cornea began to decrease before t dd n the central cornea (day 3 versus day 5, respectvely) even though the turnover rates of the perpheral and central cornea appeared dentcal (T /2 = 3 days). These observatons are consstent wth the possblty that between days 3-5 after njecton, the central cornea was ganng labeled cells from the perpheral cornea at about the same rate that t was losng labeled cells by desquamaton. The central cornea should have lost about 400 dpm of 3 H-DNA durng ths perod, a level equal to about 5% of the labeled perpheral cells present at day 3 (about 2900 dpm of 3 H-DNA). A sustaned mgraton of labeled cells from perpheral to central regons throughout the expermental perod s nconsstent wth the observaton that the net rates of turnover of the central and perpheral cornea were the same. If the perpheral cornea was losng labeled cells between days 5-5 due to mgraton and desquamaton, then the rate of turnover of the perpheral epthelum should have been sgnfcantly greater than that of the central cornea where cell loss occurred only by desquamaton.

Snce the cornea appears dependent on onste synthess to furnsh the cholesterol requred for membrane growth,0 why dd lovastatn not alter turnover of the epthelum?
