Hydrocortisone treatment as a tool to study conjunctival placode induction.
Background: Conjunctival placodes are a series of placodes that develop into the conjunctival (scleral) papillae and ultimately induce a series of scleral ossicles in the eyes of many vertebrates. This study establishes a hydrocortisone injection procedure (incl. dosage) that consistently inhibits all conjunctival papillae in the embryonic chicken eye. The effects of this hydrocortisone treatment on apoptosis, vasculature, and placode-related gene expression were assessed.
Results: Hydrocortisone treatment does not increase apoptotic cell death or have a major effect on the ciliary artery or vascular plexus in the eye. β-catenin and Eda expression levels were not significantly altered following hydrocortisone treatment, despite the absence of conjunctival papillae. Notably, Fgf20 expression was significantly reduced following hydrocortisone treatment, and the distribution of β-catenin was altered.
Conclusions: Our study showed that conjunctival papillae induction begins as early as HH27.5 (E5.5). Hydrocortisone treatment reduces Fgf20 expression independently of β-catenin and Eda and may instead affect other members of the Wnt/β-catenin or Eda/Edar pathways, or it may affect the ability of morphogens to diffuse through the extracellular matrix. This study contributes to a growing profile of gene expression data during placode development and enhances our understanding of how some vertebrate eyes develop these fascinating bones.
